@TheFrankSkinner Love the show, Frank. Any chance of some Dylan (Bob, not Thomas)? More of a poet than a singer, sometimes.

A man in Wrexham has raised over £1200 by running at least 10 miles every day for 12 days. Brian Lane, owner of Getin2Shapetraining, raised money for The Salvation Army’s Christmas Toy Appeal in the city to provide gifts for children with little or nothing on Christmas morning.
