I suppose it could be worse. I could be outside a court building, or in a field somewhere. As it is, I've so far escaped from standing out in the rain.

Someone on Twitter recently asked me to show more broadcasting kit, and behind the scenes sort of things. So, just for you, here is a short video of me about to go live for BBC News, about a body being found in woodland. Not a nice story, but the news covers all things... Hope you enjoy the video.

The whole morning went extremely well except for the rain, and the fact that every time i switched on the camera the horses and ponies seemed to sense that we were going live, and buggered off. But, we got on air at every request with no blips so that's a bonus.
