Visit Guernsey needn’t bother with a “perfectly straightforward shooting weekend” campaign islandfm.com/news/guernsey/…

We’re getting calls about polls being closed. They are closed because we do not have elections today. Kentucky votes next year. You cannot vote today in Kentucky for the mayor of New York City or the Governor of Virginia. Sorry.

Now THIS is court reporting at its finest.

How it started / How it’s going

“Worse in real life and up close” would be a damning thing for anyone to say about you, but when you were the US President and it’s coming from Jeffrey Epstein 🫣

Between the BBC, Downing Street briefings and Epstein Files, make sure you don’t miss this week’s biggest news story…

I’ve been enjoying a week off to celebrate/commiserate turning 30, but I got a timely reminder of this lovely photo from a few years ago and the importance of “taking twice as long to do half as much”. 🎂 On what would’ve been his big 5-0, happy birthday Gary Burgess 🎉

Neither a woman nor a sports fan, but worked in media enough to know that creating a separate space with “How do you do, fellow Gen Z girls” pink sparkly captions maybe isn’t the best way to champion women in sport. 🫣

"Regional airlines seem to be a very British problem", according to broadcasting legend Simon Calder, who I had the pleasure of speaking to tonight following news that Blue Islands has ceased trading. Channel 103 and @IslandFM will have all the latest. channel103.com/news/jersey/si…

Scottish regional airline Loganair has stepped in to operate some routes operated by Blue Islands, which has suspended trading. channel103.com/news/jersey/lo…

The Channel Islands airline Blue Islands has sadly closed down with the loss of around 100 jobs. It connected Guernsey and Jersey with Southampton, plus a range of other routes from Jersey to Britain and beyond. Loganair will take over some flying tomorrow independent.co.uk/travel/news-an…

Just catching up on my work emails after a week off...

If the route’s so essential, I’m sure they’d welcome competition from Aurigny and Loganair to maximise consumer choice?

which nigel farage can apparently host because according to ofcom current affairs isn't "news"

Except for today

Delighted for Guernsey to have a new regular route to London Heathrow (according to BA's online timetable anyway!) but I thought the whole debate about extending the airport's runway was because it was too short for Airbus aircraft to land?

Whoever took these outstanding stock photos of Sark that companies end up using instead of Guernsey must be raking it in from accidental purchases. 😂
