'Finished work at 7 am this morning'

Quick meal, brief sleep and back to work

Adding his trademark humour, he wrote: "I shall retire now get some food in the belly .. hit a pillow for a while for, tomorrow the 6th Aug is another early call .. the first Broadcast Date for KBC is announced .. and missing that would mean a job replacement for me .. so off to do what needs to be done .."
