Hello! I'm heading to the departure lounge after 31 years in various newspaper roles at Canary Wharf, the last 16 in the fab world of travel. Huge thanks to all you lovely #travel PRs for your magnificent help. Time to explore new horizons ... I'll sea you on the other side!

Travel journalism's "Bobby Ewing in the shower" moment 😂 #morecomebacksthansinatra

Holy smoke! Bloke in front of me at tills in Waitrose just bought 200 Silk Cut Blue ie 10 packs. £18.90 each!!! 🤯🚬 I quit in 1986 when Marlboro Red hit £1 a pop. Lovely fags though - quick puff Sunday League footy half-time? Oh yes #DifferentTimes

Boarding a state-run #train from darkest Essex into London for the first time since 1997. Excellent news!

And we're off! The 2025 Travel Media Awards at the fab Pan Pacific #hotel in #London are under way! Good luck everyone!

Irony Bombshell Klaxon!🚨Daily Mirror gets coveted 2025 Travel Media Awards National Tabloid Section of the Year! Remind me what happened a fortnight ago?! 😂 Delighted to win and huge thanks to readers, judges and everyone who works on the travel pages, especially Vicky Lissaman

A lot of love in the room at 2025 Travel Media Awards at fab Pan Pacific #hotel in #London for the Daily Mirror winning National Tabloid Section of the Year. Means a lot to be appreciated for your work. Thank you

The fabulous Vicky 🦋 with Daily Mirror Travel Media Awards National Tabloid Section of the Year 2025 award! Great night at the Pan Pacific #hotel in #London - thanks to everyone who voted for us! Means a lot in a difficult situation 🙏

Literally 'on the same page' as the fabulous Pat Wooding - another post-redundancy byline this time in the good old Coventry Telegraph! #GoneButNotForgotten

One last bit of post-redundancy regional newspaper byline bothering! No more, honest! Manchester Evening News #travel page lead on a quick but fun easyJet group press trip to Cape Verde. Lousy headline pun, I'd get rid of the idiot who wrote that

Who doesn't love #potatoes ? (Anya variety from Sainsbury's, should you be wondering) 🥔 ♥️ #spuds

Hello Ben Clatworthy - Storm Benjamin. So basically it's just an Abta presser heading our way? 😂

Best of luck to all my fantastic former colleagues at the Reach plc Express, Mirror, People and Star national #newspapers being made redundant today. You are all brilliant people and brilliant journos 👏👏👏

Whoah! Is this the pub footy on telly equivalent of towels on sunbeds?! Strange goings on in Darkest Essex

Fab venue for the #WTM2025 Greek Travel Awards - shiny new V&A East Storehouse in London's Olympic Park is a bit of a showstopper. A working museum that's open to visitors. A great new attraction in #London . Efharisto, Greece 🇬🇷

#Poppies on the (world's longest) Pier at Southend-on Sea, Essex. The UK's largest Remembrance installation with 110,471 knitted and crocheted red poppies. Get here early over the weekend, 40min queue for tix to walk the 2.6 mile round trip today #RemembranceDay

Things I have learned in 6wks today since redundancy at Reach. 1) The Telegraph newsroom is huge. 2) The Tube transfer from Victoria to Circle at King's X is horrendous. 3) The Sun newsroom has a Dalek. Why? Who knows. Thanks to everyone at Sun/Tele for being so friendly

It was a dark and stormy night at Canary Wharf #London . A memorable leaving do for all the brilliant Mirror journalists just made redundant. Good luck to you all #newspapers #journalism

Hellooooo Robin McKelvie - fit like ma loon? Spotted some support in darkest Essex. Super glad I bought those shares in Tennent's Lager last week 😁 Good luck! 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿⚽

Hampden Roar = Hampden Four! Kinell Robin McKelvie 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿⚽ Enjoy 👏👏👏
