Slovenia here I come

Next week sees two firsts for me, my first visit to Slovenia, and my first job for Discovery Channel, I've been in TV for 20 years and somehow have never worked for Discovery before, well that's about to change!

Thanks to my old friend David Coward, a director I've worked with a lot in Afghanistan, I'm working on series two of 'X Machines' and we'll be watching some very clever people using some incredible machinery. Another old friend Tony Mewse is shooting it and it's going to be great, a chance to get all the toys out and make some great TV.

Where does the busy Sound Recordist go for a weekend off?

Guernsey, that's where...

I just spent an amazing few days there with my wife and our dog, it's a great place, go if you get chance, I recommend Le Petit Bistro in Saint Peter Port, good food and a very good Brouilly for £26 a bottle, that'll ding dang doo for me! It's always great to see the dog running on the beach, and he made the most of every bit of sand he saw.
