Hey everybody! I'm back on my bike!

Hey everybody!

(This is me trying to get my message, body AND bike into one photo.)

I'm back on my (chalking) bike!

HOORAH

It's only been 5 days, right?

AND IT'S SUMMER!

Such perfect timing.

Liverpool, UK: Chalking and walking with the (model) dog

My dad posted me a model dog because I said I wanted a pet.

He's cute.

And super adventurous.

(Don't look at me like that. If I am going to be mocked with a model dog for a pet, I'm going to treat it like a REAL one, take photos of it and then send them off to my dad so that he thinks I've completely lost it)

Dogs don't do that.

Get off the bench, you're embarassing me.

Friend of yours?

Hope he comes home soon.

Don't even think about it.

I did say the ducks wouldn't want to swim with you today...

There's no use giving me those eyes.

And no, they don't want to be chased by you either.

That's more like it.

King of the world.

What's that?

That's Sefton Park Palm House.

Hm?

Can you live there? 

Don't you think you'd get lonely in there? 

Let's go for another walk...

Morning boys!

Fellas!

This day has been great! What next?

ARGH.

Salford, UK: MORNING!

Morning!

I'm going to see squirrels today!

But FIRST...

Join us over at BBC 6Music between 7 and 10am for the soundtrack to your soon-to-be awesome Sunday.

We're chilling in Salford...

Sefton Park, Liverpool: Walking to stop Joe's arm falling off

(He fell off his bike and has been told to walk to help his arms/legs/everything heal)

Zoo?

Kind of looks like it...

(Joe wanted to chalk this but I don't trust him not to draw rude things)

Look, it's a face on a tree!

(Were you looking for something rude?)

:)

Liverpool ONE: Be Excellent to Each Other

'Be excellent to each other'

(This is some good advice I received from Eddie Argos of Art Brut recently)

Or, if that's too hard, follow my friend Paul's advice...

'Have fun, love life, be Helen'

(Obviously swapping my name for yours...)

HAPPY 2014

BBC Radio Merseyside: Today is my last day in work...

Here are the headlines...

As you've been in the radio business for a gazillion years...

I'll miss you all
