Today I had the rare pleasure of a visit from the impossibly beautiful Kate who is Kate and also Katherine, bearing happy news for her and bad news for hUll9.

She is leaving us for a promotion within the Beeb as war correspondent in Shrewsbury, and she's off soon, so we are going to have a Big Barrow Sessionssss next Tuesday 27th to see the good woman off.

Be there, or stay at home and watch bleedin' Peter Levy on the telly.
