Don’t forget ladies in Northumberland, Marta will be at Alnwick market during December. Weather permitting.

A Winter Warmer with the Durham Ladies Yesterday Martavine had a ‘Ladies Wine Tasting’ for a private party hosted by Fupi and Nikki Noble. The event started at noon and was in a very cosy and informal atmosphere.  I was introduced to all the ladies that came along and we started with a glass of sparkling wine from Portugal. Everyone was very surprised with the quality of Portuguese sparkling! The afternoon was white and cold but soon got warm and very enjoyable during the tasting of 1 … Read More

  1. Hi, I wanted to leave a comment on your post regarding the water under the Opera House but could not:
    The opera is made of three buildings: two large heavy ones and one
    lighter one in the center between them, where the performing actually takes
    place.

    Since it was build on a nappe phréatique (I believe “ground water”) it was
    most unstable. So the architect (Charles Garnier 1875) designed a large
    chamber under the center portion, to be filled with water and add weight to
    stabilize the whole structure. This underground chamber, (the size of two olympic swimming pools), under water, has columns and is
    checked by firemen/scuba-divers with lights (it is totally dark) every so often. And yes, there are trouts, I saw them on the film. 🙂

Just over 2 months ago we were singing Caledonia with Dougie Maclean at the opening of the River Tay. Standing on the banks of the River Tay with friends and a poignant song about Scotland. For friends who are unable to travel to this beautiful place at this moment in time, this is for you x x The Romans called Scotland 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 Caledonia. I don't know if you can see The changes that have come over me In these past few days I've been afraid That I might drift away So I've been telling old stories, singing songs That make me think about where I came from And thats the reason why I seem So far away today Oh Let me tell you that I love you That I think about you all the time Caledonia you're calling me Now I'm going home And if I should become a stranger No it would make me more than sad Caledonia's been everything I've ever had Oh and I have moved And I've kept on moving Proved the points That I needed proving Lost the friends That I needed losing Found others on the way Oh and I have tried and kept on trying Stolen dreams yes theres no denying I've travelled hard with conscience flying Somewhere with…

Take care Caroline Middlesbrough community coming together helping those less fortunate @preston_andy @benhouchen @cvfmradio
I don’t normally share my daily walk to the river with Sophie. Many of you will not know that I work from home for FishPal so having a break and getting out in to the fresh air is really important for me. Every day we walk to the river whatever the weather and during the last 6 weeks we’ve seen it flooded, both banks burst quite a few times. We are now in u chartered territory with Covid19 and everyone needs to take individual action to reduce transmission and slow it’s spread. We all have a role to play and a responsibility to modify our behaviour. For me personally casting a line in a river on my own away from the stresses and strains of daily news updates, shoppers panic buying as if the world is going to end is a luxury that I have. If you can’t get to a river I hope you have a green space nearby to enjoy the sounds of everything connected with Spring. Stay safe and sending you all love x x This post has photos of my daily walk to the river I hope you enjoy them x

It’s always lovely to have a giggle with comedian Dean Moore. “He is a Middlesbrough gem. Dean isnt only a beacon of happiness and hope he is also working hard as a newly appoint street warden across the town - some of his input has been amazing for some of the towns most troubled adults - keep being brilliant dean and thank you for your hard work” a quote this evening from Antony High Deputy Mayor of Middlesbrough #OurMiddlesbrough #cvfmradio #annewoodcock #radio #community
I was running late this afternoon and totally lost in Middlesbrough, even with sat nav for my meeting with the amazing folk at Africa4U - African Community 2020 and beyond. Finally arrived and interviewed these two amazing women who are making a difference in our community. Their energy and empowering messages were uplifting. Interviews on @cvfmradio Community Show this Thursday at 6pm

Met this little chap today at the litter pick in Middlesbrough - he’s 4 and wants to make a difference to his community. He also gave me a bag of sweets at the end of the litter pick. Community Champions Middlesbrough
The opportunity to chat about women in fishing on the BBC and to be interviewed by a retired Team GB Olympian and British 100m champion was a huge privilege. In 2007 Jeanette recorded the fastest time by a British woman in the 60m at 7.17 seconds. I knew it was going to be an interview full of positive energy and fast! What did I cover: Why women are good at fishing. Health Benefits of fishing and eating fish. This Girl Can / Sport England. Conservation. How to get into fishing. Link in the bio to listen to the show / go to 41minutes to catch fishing
Just love Hamleys Toy Store - there’s a child in us all - so much fun @hamleysofficial
