³ÉÈËÂÛ̳

After 2 years digging, armed only with a teaspoon and a strategically placed vaulting box, I've managed to tunnel through the floor separating 5 Live from Radio 4 and for the next few months I'm going to be helping launch iPM - the PM programme's new blog-powered Saturday show. It's an exciting project, one I hope you'll lend an ear to when it starts in November.

They've very kindly given me the name of Mr Blog (I believe at Radio 4 everyone is required to have some kind of made-up middle name like "chalky" or "ginger" - I suppose I'll get used to it). More details on the PM blog in the coming weeks.

But this move does mean there'll be some changes to Pods and Blogs: While I'll still be involved, and of course Rhod will remain at the helm, there'll be less of me and we'll be bringing in some new(ish) voices. While some of my colleagues will be "stepping up to the wicket" I'm also keen that we use the opportunity to hear more from you. So please do get in touch with your ideas for stories, features etc. My loss should be your gain!
