Hi

@EmilyBrown_6
. You've used a picture of me instead of the LBC Steve Allen. I'm not the potty mouthed one so could we swap it please as I don't need a pile on anytime soon. Thanks.
Sadly this
#Internationalwomensday
we've just said goodbye to my Mum. She had a long struggle with Alzheimer's and she passed away this afternoon. I'm probably going to be off for a while because it's all a bit sad if I'm honest but it seemed fitting to pay a tribute to her.
I just want to point out that tomorrow I shall not be presenting a show on the BBC. That's not due to any scandal. It's more linked to them sacking me in 2020.
Well, it was Dad's funeral today. Before the hearse set off from the house he lived in for nearly 60 years lots of the neighbours on the street stood out in front of their homes to see him off. I don't think I've ever seen anything quite like that in all my years.
Did the see the camera angle on

at the funeral? Some people are saying it was deliberate. Others are saying it's to help Elton's next hit.

I think the fact that it hasn't got anything to do with football (his job) is why he can tweet about it (his personal opinion). Even if someone is paid via a licence fee we're all allowed freedom of speech.
I'm on a train. The ticket inspector asked for my ticket. I handed it to him and he said, "That's absolutely lovely, thank you sir." And now I feel good about myself.
I woke up today to see that USB-C is trending and there's a political divide on it. Finally, a news story that suits me.
USB-C is the best connector ever. I just wanted to give it a little plug. Little pl...! Nevermind.
Let the glamour begin. I'm on my way in to Tom things up on the new series of

I'll also do some back stretches in case I'm asked to recline in the News Desk chair like a man with nothing but contempt and entitlement. You never know.
I've just had a bit of a long drive to wave Happy Birthday to my dad though his care home window. I hadn't seen him since Mum's funeral just before lockdown started. Even typing that makes me realise why I've been so different lately.
2020, not a fan.
All of these people on the news saying during the strike we should only call 999 if we really have to. I'm so confused about how often I was meant to be calling for a chat before.
OK, let’s test the water. Surely we can all agree, if you’re wearing a balaclava and looting from B&M Bargains you’re not doing that because you’re worried about immigration’s impact on GDP per capita.
Sadly this is me most days.
"Oh, I'll email myself that so I don't forget."
*1 second later, phone vibrates*
"Ooh, I got a message. Who could that be?"
Quick side note: As tempting as it is to attack the looks of someone who's said a nasty thing, maybe criticise them for what they said. That way, if you got the wrong person, you haven't called them ugly for 24 hours.

and all that.
Dave has decided to drop Late Night Mash after two series: "We'd like to thank everyone involved in the show [but it] will not return for another series".
Did you see the camera angle on
#MeghanMarkIe
at the
#QueensFuneral
? Some people are saying it was deliberate. I'm sure 'certain' newspapers are happy.
In defence of the people flocking to Skegness, they may have misunderstood the term "social isolation" and thought, "OK, what can I do to lose all my friends in one swift move?"
I want to see the director's cut of the
#JohnLewis
and where the plant eats the whole family, before the focus groups got involved and made the studio change it.

It's almost as if not following the correct instructions messes up the test. Not all pop bands are scientists. Brian Cox gave them false confidence.
Earlier today I edited a clip of when I was on the radio predicting that
#2023
would have more
#JustStopOil
and
#ExtinctionRebellion
style protests. A few hours later they announced they're stopping the disruption. This is why I earn top dollar as a news commentator.
"People are doing DIY medical treatment because they can't see their GP."
We deal with this serious subject the way we know best on the
@Time1075_fm
radio show.

Has anyone got some of that wallpaper that looks like a bookshelf going spare? I might be on TV from my home during the lockdown and I want to blend in with everyone else.
I just tallied up all the tweets from people who bothered to point out that wouldn't be watching
#LateNightMash
because that's what we do now apparently. Then subtracted that figure from the total possible audience and, wow, huge number. That's great news. Thanks, Tweeters.
I had a caller on the radio show I did today who said of the
#COVIDvaccine
, “I wouldn’t want a parachute that’s only 95% effective!”
OK, but if you were already out of the plane and had to pick between that parachute and nothing, good luck learning how to bounce.
