Well, it wasn’t strictly speaking a debut, since I was interviewed over the phone on live radio a few months ago by Johnny Amos for Radio Northamptonshire, but tonight I did my first studio broadcast for Cheshire FM. Thanks to Diana for making me very welcome and for the fascinating introduction to the world of modern live radio. She was the consumate professional, very well prepared and scarily calm as the seconds counted down to our three sessions. Apparently I did OK, didn’t um, er or veer off the subject. But it is daunting knowing that people are listening live and that there’s no opportunity to correct yourself if you say something silly! Anyway, I admit I rather enjoyed it.
