Reaching out across the airwaves

It was great to receive some emails from hospital radio stations at opposite ends of the country, after word of the 51-hour marathon reached other stations.

Jim Simpson (no relation) wrote from Grampian Hospital Radio in Aberdeen, while Adam Streather sent greetings from the sunny south coast and Hospital Radio Hastings.

Thanks guys, the support means a lot and helps me to keep going.

Thanks, too, for those who have sent messages of support via this blog, or directly to me by text and email.  It’s a lonely job here in the studio, so comforting to know that others are out there worrying too

Just past the 22 hours mark, 8 o’clock will see the 24-hour (1 day) barrier, and 9.30pm will be exactly half way, 25.5 hours.

That’s how I’m approaching it, not 51 hours off the belt, but little spells of 2 or 3 hours at a time.  It’s working so far.
