Here I am (on the left!), stood with the boss of @lv18radio.uk , just after we'd met up at the media event in Ipswich yesterday afternoon at the Suffolk Archives building.
Two people, one female on the left and a male on the right are stood against a light background. The female is in a black jacket with a black bag over a check dress. She is holding a white cup & saucer. The male is in a dark top and jacket with lighter jeans.

In bed earlier than planned but have 🎧 on listening to @lv18radio.uk . I may be biased* but the Saturday night scheduling guarantees great music. Holding out for the Garden of Unearthly Delights at midnight.

*Disclaimer: I'm studio engineer but I didn't put the schedule together.
