This is the conker which, at 4.30am this morning, I could feel in my pocket and assumed were my keys.

I got locked out of my house because of a stupid conker.

Took a train to Cardiff and cycled the 80 miles back to Burnham. Taking in a capital city, rural countryside, docks, bridges and the Bristol Channel 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

A brilliant way to spend the Bank Holiday Sunday! 🚴🏻‍♂️

Just a normal day on commentary… 🏏
The @somersetccc.bsky.social live feed has diverted into commentary on helicopters (with a degree of precision that Blowers couldn't compete with), and now medieval cathedrals with a very informed discussion of the acoustics and restoration of Bristol cathedral. #BetterThanTMS

Thanks to BBC Radio Bristol for having me on the Breakfast Show this week! I felt very welcome.

I loved exploring the area by bike too! It was the Bristol and Bath Railway Path yesterday…

Cracking day for a bike ride! Big thanks to the BBC Radio Bristol Breakfast listeners for suggesting the Bristol to Portishead route!

Hear how I got on tomorrow morning from 6am ☀️🚴🏻‍♂️

Easter answers! Another week of clues coming up later today 🐰

I will now be using the phrase “dishful thinking” at the next carvery or buffet I go to 🎼🐟

Very concerning box in my studio this morning…

I’m hoping it’s full of Easter eggs for the team.

Seeing my producer’s mischievous grin makes me doubt that.

On Friday on my show I asked for stories about job applications that went wrong. Lili’s incredible story involves Kylie Minogue 😂

Sound on!

Trying to explain (in Spanish) the significance and immense mental and physical skill of Tom Banton’s 371 to my Spanish teacher who had not really heard of cricket until she started teaching me was a challenge I relished this afternoon.

Last week I was given incredibly rare access to the very heart of Hinkley Point B nuclear power station.

It’s the first time a radio station has visited the ‘pond’ where spent fuel is cooled before being moved off site.

Join me tomorrow at 6am on BBC Radio Somerset to hear it.

One of THE great days for @somersetccc.bsky.social.

150 years of the club and no-one has ever scored more than Tom Banton.

Hard to believe how good his innings was today. Top drawer!

The cricket season starts tomorrow! 🏏

Somerset fans - the Cider Press podcast is back! @samdalling.bsky.social and I were joined by two stars to get the new series going…

Listen now to Jack Leach and Dani Gibson ahead of @somersetccc.bsky.social’s 150th anniversary season.

Did you get both answers for Wednesday’s question? Top marks if so! This week’s questions coming shortly… 🎼🐟

It’s Dan Downs’ last day with the BBC!

So what else to get the Name That Tuna GOAT other than a tuna for his leaving present 🎼🐟

We’ll miss you Dan!

In less than ten minutes, Lyn at The Somerset and Dorset Family History Society had uncovered a branch of my family we knew nothing about.

It turns out I now live about five miles away from the home of my great-great-great grandparents.
