John Baish at work

I work at the BBC, but this is a personal account, so these are not the views of my employer. The station account is @bbcberkshire.

@airchecks A brief mention near the start of this is the closest I’ve ever got to @airchecks !

@sturdyAlex I know what you mean and I’m so sorry. The guilt at your own feelings will start to fade after a little while, you should expect, and I’m sure that’s the right thing for it to do. Good luck.

@Grifster96 @NGHnhstrust That’s a lovely photo. A smile, a slightly cheeky look maybe, and a glass of bubbly. Thinking of you now and in the days ahead.

@jonholmes1 @DavidLloydRADIO From the Radio Authority he once wrote me a letter at Jazz FM saying we weren’t playing enough jazz. I rang to tell him it was all absolutely fine. “I don’t think you’ve quite understood…,” he said. A stern meeting followed, but he was delightful about it.

@MagnusCarter1 How lovely to hear you do this! I learned so much from you back in the day at the Watershed.

@GWRHelp Hello, I’m on the 1803 from Paddington to Penzance, which departed a few minutes late. Will it call at Reading? All the indications were that it would, but the on-board info says first stop Taunton.

There’s a Tim Blackmore-shaped hole in the world tonight. It’s pretty big. But we still have his advice, his thoughtfulness, and the radio industry he helped to shape.

@GraceHopper1 @TBIMedia @KissFMUK Nice work. They’re a great company.

How sad to see @rosenthal_jim reporting the death of Dickie Davies. At @ClassicFM he was the most perfect gentleman, and it was a pleasure to know him.

@PetrocTrelawny I saw this news and thought of you. Very sad.

@PerkinsPolly09 Oh Polly, how sad. Sending love to you. Those of us who knew him through work thought he was great. How much harder for you. All best wishes.

@ms_ccwan A friend recommended this yesterday and now I have it. I said “I’d love to tell the designer how much I love this watch face” and here you are! Honestly it’s perfect and makes me happy. Thank you.
