In a recent post I discussed wanting to make a change to my life and, sure enough , I went and took the plunge. I no longer work with VICE News (the three hour daily commute was steadily eroding my will to live), but have instead taken a post with the BBC. Since I was a kid, it’s been my dream and ambition to work at the BBC and now I can tick that one off the list. So I’ve got that going for me, which is nice. I remember well writing a post about my disappoinment at the closure of Television Centre, a few years on, however, things are starting to look a whole lot better. Although the old grounds are literally a building site at the moment, I’m told that three of the building’s historic studios are being refurbished and should be up and running again by 2018. Things are going to get very exciting.

Secondly, this adjustment should allow me the time to pursue more fruitful avenues. I have a stack of books to get through and also have a long-form post, more in keeping with the old spirit of this blog, in mind. I will most probably also be transferring this site onto wordpress.org in the new year (I’m not chancing anything else in 2016). This shouldn’t alter how the blog works, but will it certainly allow me to experiment a little more.

I still have a few photos that I took while working around Old Street and deliver them here for you.
