London

London, a city where around every corner there seems to be another iconic site; the Shard, the London Eye, Big Ben, The 02 Arena and for me, Capital Radio!

 We had some really exciting experiences during the trip including getting splashed with water in the London Dungeons, taking a gruesome walking tour of Jack The Ripper's murder spots and zooming down the Thames at 40 km/hr!

Full of early starts and late finishes, we were definitely fit for bed by the end of the day. I was kept alive by Tesco Value energy drinks! Our trip had numerous photo opportunities including standing on the prime meridian, sitting on the main deck of the HMS Belfast and running from tube to tube.

I took this one myself on the last night.... Just kidding!

Radio Ga Ga



So, with some incredible luck, I have managed to secure a bit of work at Dublin's FM104! - I'm going to be doing some 'swing work' at the weekends. Basically what this boils down to is; I'll be on air every so often when the regular presenters are sick/on holidays etc. I am ecstatic about working on the station, as it will give me brilliant experience.



In addition, I will be doing some work with East Coast FM. Next Wednesday, I'll be presenting the coveted 4am - 6am slot! - It's all going to be pre-recorded (Yes! - radio is full of deception), so I won't have to set the alarm early on Wednesday.
