I began this blog on October 1st 2013 when I was 6 months away from my 50th Birthday and wanted to daily record my year with the blog ending on September 30th 2014. Five years later as I approached 55 I repeated this. Now ten years after this all began as I prepare to reach my 60th birthday in 2024 once more a daily update beginning on October 1st 2023 and ending on 30th September 2024. It is a personal journey, which others may find mind-numbing!

October 3rd 2013
Today I have been working from home, final editing the two episodes of the Radio 4 series Shared Planet which were recorded in the Bristol studio yesterday, and which I missed part of because of the M5 accident. I've been sitting at this desk most of the day; it encapsulates 90% of my working life looking at computer screens, either writing, replying to e-mails or editing. Just 10% sees me out there communing with nature. Editing is an interesting business which I still struggle with, as there is always some super nugget of a recording, some gem a contributor has said, which has to end up never making the programme.
If you're interested this programme (soil biology) goes out on Tuesday 16th October at 11.02 am on Radio 4.
