Brilliant to welcome the brilliant Jazz Quintet Opus Blue into the studio today and show that there is good young talent out there. Wonderful to see the mums of the boys anxiously waiting in the wings in the production area willing them on! Enjoyed speaking to Nicky and Tony Cook about her career as a femal footballer and the prejudics she has come up against. You can read more about that online at www.bbc.co.uk/hampshire
Everyone was shocked this morning to hear the news of the sudden death of Michael Jackson and as the story unfolds, the pictures of fans maintaining vigils shows what influence music has on people's lives.

Birdwoman!
Having now discovered a huge love of ducks and swan, rescuing a pigeon in the high street seemed the next step! Everyone clapped the man who shimmied up the post along with the walking stick I had borrowed from an onlooker and the pigeon was moved slowly up and happily flew away!
Mr M was at his school reunion this weekend so I helped my daughter and her partner tackle the jungle that is their garden. India my grand daughter helped out with a small fork and a lot of watering with her little watering can, and by the end of Sunday we were all exhausted by delighted at the difference. There is now an area for India's slide she wants us to buy her, and a swing and small trampoline. Now we need to start looking for low maintenance plants that can add some immediate colour.

I'm back!
Have had a fabulous two weeks leave, although a lot of packing and unpacking. We've moved to the beautiful market town of Romsey and we have already been made to feel so welcome. When I went to the bank this morning, the cashier, who has only seen me once, said 'how are you settling in'! Great service, and quite a difference from living in the city! Had a bad experience with the letting agents that we rented the last place with on handover, all very odd, but now we are in our lovely new home it all seems worthwhile. We were so lucky with the removal company, who made what can be a very stressful time seem very easy, and we sat in the garden with a glass of chilled white and felt incredibly lucky that we had found this beautiful place.
Mr M is very organised, unlike me, and had all the packing boxes opened and arranged within two days, and even managed a couple of flat packs so it is really looking like home now.
Good to be back at BBC Solent today and lovely to have your welcome back messages that you sent me.
