David began his radio life as a behind the scenes man at BBC Radio Shropshire. A five year spell doing the early breakfast show and travel news at BBC Radio Leeds soon followed where he chased UFOs and ghosts on Ilkley moor in a live all night broadcast, and was called a lemon by Sir Jimmy Saville. In November 2007, he joined BBC Radio Gloucestershire, in a move he describes as 'the best I've ever made' - WE clearly didn't know what we were getting! He has adopted Gloucestershire as his home and is a proud resident of Brockworth. He has a great passion for the countryside and is pleased to be living by the Severn again. In September 2008, He put his nautical skills to the test when he took a narrowboat down the Severn and Gloucester and Sharpness Canal - broadcasting along the way and only crashing the boat once! This was described as an experience never to be repeated - but you never know, he could be persuaded. Off the radio, David is a passionate, some might say obsessive, fan of Shrewsbury Town. He continues to act under the delusion that they will one day be a success. He is also gadget mad and can often be found pressing buttons on computers in an attempt to 'improve' things, and cowering in the engineers office like a naughty schoolboy when it all goes wrong! David's on the radio each weekday afternoon with something to put a smile on your face, The best music anywhere on the radio, interesting people, fascinating stories, and you.
