About Me

I am a presenter on the Banburyshire Brolly, a British podstation run by Banbury native Jules Proctor, who is also the main presenter on the casts (I've been doing monthly casts). Check us out at The Banburyshire Brolly

If you have music in the folk-rock vein you would like to have played on the Brolly, let me know.

My grand-niece, Drew Potenti, who was diagnosed with Nemaline Myopathy (NM) has passed her first birthday and is still growing. Please support the Nemaline Myopathy Foundation
