Halfway through my birthday cup of tea, I saw a Tweet from Andy Howard, a BBC Radio Bristol reporter. "Who's got the best view in the west?" he asked. "Me, akshly," I replied.
Next thing you know there's a van outside with a rapidly-expanding aerial reaching up to roof level.
"I've got to be on air in four minutes!" said Andy.
"Better dash then", I said.
We made it.
