Wondering what this little girl would have thought if she’d known she’d have an incredible 35-year career as a journalist - taking her from Bangor as a teenage apprentice to war in Bosnia; from Liverpool to London and home to Wales as @BBCWalesNews presenter and @ITVWales editor.

Appreciation for #journalists everywhere, who’ve kept going, through it all. Supporting each other and doing our best - to share what we know, and what we don’t. I joined this industry as a teenage apprentice and I’m privileged to still be part of it as a middle-aged woman.
