I joined Hospital Radio Exeter earlier
this year (2010) when my family and I came to settle in Devon
after I retired after 35 years spent overseas in various countries
with the British Council. I had had some experience of radio
presenting way back in the mid-70s with the Qatar Broadcasting
Service in the Arabian Gulf and was keen to have another go once I
had the time.
HRE has given me a fantastic
opportunity to get back in the studio and contribute something
helpful (I hope!) to patients at the Royal Devon & Exeter Hospital.
It's a great team here and I'm having a ball! I present Pop-Back every
Wednesday evening from 6 to 7pm - a nostalgic return to the
music charts, and the life and times, of the 50s and 60s.
I also present the request show
alternately with Rob Turner on Monday evenings between 8 and 9pm.
I'd love it if you could join me.
