Headteacher in Tyne and Wear, on the wrong side of 50 and retiring in the summer. Loves family, Boro, Seahawks & Mariners. Music snob! All views, of course, my own.
How come Freddie Flintoff gets me in tears every single time!

Can’t help thinking that if I’d ripped off the government for £122m I’d be in jail rather than my limited company getting fined. Who yer know innit. #Slime

Having such a good time in Seattle. An amazing cool city, and a very strong political stance.

My wife was lecturing today at a nurses conference. It was exactly 34 years to the day that she had her first lecture as a student…in the same lecture theatre.

And who was in the lecture theatre? My daughter, who is starting her nurse job this week.

Don’t like to be negative on players but I just don’t see what Whittaker brings to the team. That’s 4 and a half matches in and just don’t see it, especially when we have such good players on the bench #boro

How bloody good is this?! And shows that the majority of us demand that those in charge stand up for those without a voice. #lineker
Gary Lineker on winning the National TV Award,

"It's not lost on me why I might have won this award"

"Aside from presenting Match of the Day.."

"Also, I think it demonstrates that perhaps it's ok sometimes to use our platform to speak up on behalf of those who have no voice"
