Why is it ok for news bulletins to warn F1 fans they're about to give out the result of a major race yet the same courtesy doesn't appear to apply to fans of major road cycling events like Giro d'Italia ? - Back from hols and was poised to catch up. Thanks for ruining, guys!

Following their ‘Final decision’, may I refer Ofcom Tony Blackburn OBE. and BBC management to my letter in the Radio Times. Doing nothing should not be an option in extending choice and variety for older listeners. There are other ways …

Free-to-air tv sport is such an important thing to preserve. At the end of this year's Tour de France™ we lose it, free-to-air tv road cycling & with it the peerless team that make the ITV Cycling coverage. This can't be allowed to happen. BBC Sport - please pick this amazing team up!

It’s what I’ve always said: Who regulates the regulators? Something has to change as decisions keep getting made without any decent level of audience understanding, equality or compromise.

Save ITV Cycling Vol.3 - One of the key players in their coverage has always been Daniel Friebe - His exemplary VT's and pre/post interviews have consistently delivered intelligent creativity and humour. As with Gary Imlach's pieces, not a passive watch. You need to pay attention ...

I think most people know my views on this by now and thankfully for everyone's sake, I'm bored of wanging on about it! That said, it would be nice to think Phil Riley 📻 David Lloyd could have a peace meeting with BBC Radio 2 to agree a service they would find acceptable.

Hats-off to BBC Radio 2 for this last night. Hugely edifying, distinctive content. I stand behind no-one in my admiration for Gambo in that slot, but I can't listen to him anymore. One of the greatest and most encyclopedic music broadcasters playing GHR fodder is such a waste.

Chapeau to under-rated radio host martin kelner talking about being 'let go' talkSPORT on his Substack & contacting 📻 David Lloyd at BoomRadioUK to ask about a gig. Boom need to sign jocks with Gen X appeal like him to evolve the bottom end. Old R2 Sat Late Show slot pls DL!

This Sunday one of the unsung heroes of British radio presents his last show. Another victim of cuts that seem to be unnecessarily consigning more and more of the medium's unique, funny and creative talents to the job centre. So farewell and thank you martin kelner It's been fun

Mark Punter Thank you Mark, although I am doing Fighting Talk on 5 Live one Saturday in October & may do the odd stand-in on TalkSport. And I’m on Substack - but yes, last show as a regular presenter

Wouldn't normally post this, but think important to regularly check your back my friends - especially if you live alone. Beth flagged up a sus looking mole, which Broomfield hospital have done a lovely job of removing. Awaiting biopsy now, but I'd probably never have noticed it.
