Was good to share time on the mic with a man who played in Scotland's last World Cup Finals appearance Paul Lambert and one involved in their return to the big stage this year John McGinn. Both top blokes!

Fortunate to have been on five separate trips to USA over the years - three adventures with Villa and two holidays with uni pals. Great memories and experiences!

Went to Canada in 2007 with AVFC. Friendly people. Had great trip to Toronto Blue Jays baseball game with Gareth Barry & Co. Was also invited to play golf at Rattlesnake Point by Martin O'Neill. He enjoyed my tee shot down middle on 1st. Had a good rapport with MON. Happy days!

Popped over the border to Mexico on a trip to USA in 2004. Crikey, thought I was a man of the world but Tijuana was something else. We were back in San Diego by 11pm.

World Cup Finals Eve! I've been lucky enough to work with many players who've represented their country in past tournaments, including Steve Staunton, Ron Vlaar, Thomas Hitzlsperger and Karim El Ahmadi. All great guys!

Magical musical Monday night doing a concert for Castle Bromwich Ladies Club. Really enjoyed it! I love performing and sharing my passion for singing with people, great audience as well. Here's the programme, added in a few impromptu a capella numbers too.🎤🎶

The Champions League Final. Honoured to have been on the mic with many who won the 1982 version, when it was known as The European Cup!

Work anniversary time and a major milestone reached! 10 years of being a freelancer after leaving my staff role! Happy to have made a success of it - daunting venturing into the unknown but it's been a real adventure. Who knows what the next decade has in store!

On this date, 26 May, in 1982 Villa won the European Cup. Wow, 44 years ago! One of the best things about what has been an incredible way of making a living was the time I spent working with most of that squad over many years. A real privilege! 🎤⚽️

Thought Boro would have a good year while commentating on 1st half of pre-season game at Mansfield in July . Now here they are in play-off final! Great times as TFM's voice of sport & covering Hull matches for Viking radio too so best wishes to both teams! m.youtube.com/watch?v=QF_jOD…

Delighted for AVFC fans. Having lived and breathed much of the long period between major trophies in a professional capacity I know how much this means to the lifeblood, the beating heart of the club. Enjoy the celebrations Villans!

Can't believe it's 11 years since I was serenaded by the fans on Wembley way pitch-side before the FA Cup final of 2015!

Throwback to my past stint on the mic at FA Cup Final at Wembley, in 2015. Great to announce the teams pitch-side as the Villa fans turned up the volume, interview some of the big names and commentate on the game.
