BBC radio and podcast producer, 90s aficionado, and aspiring northerner. Probably taller than you. Tweets are my own, however misguided and/or rare they may be.

And you may find yourself
Living in a shotgun shack
And you may find yourself
In another part of the world
And you may find yourself
Behind the wheel of a large automobile
And you may find yourself in a beautiful house
With a beautiful wife
And you may ask yourself, well...

I genuinely think our decline as a nation can be directly linked to the moment Gazza failed to get his toe to that Sheerer cross during Golden Goal. It's up there with Suez and the fall of Khartoum.

This is absolutely incredible. Made the hairs on my neck stand up. What a fella.

@mikeysmith @RobSetchell @LexalGaming @mjwhitehouse @JamesyKenny Definitely my time there, but unfortunately I was likely too busy reliving Blur v Oasis on a weekly basis. Both Heads of Music from 2009 don’t seem to be on Twitter, but perhaps @mikemccarthy @jsjallen could help?
