00:00Hello gang, some news. I had a little bit of a health scare about two weeks ago and
00:10I hit burnout basically. I've been working seven days a week for I don't know how long
00:16and I got to London, yet again, I don't live in London, with my suitcase and I felt very
00:23unwell and I had a tight feeling in my chest and I was utterly exhausted again. Anyway,
00:32I ended up in hospital for checks, which were all fine, absolutely fine, but my family have
00:40given me a good talking to, so have my friends and have said, no more seven day working weeks.
00:48So, very, very sadly, something had to go and I'm very fed up about it, but I have made the
01:00decision that I can no longer do my Sunday show on LBC, which is a very hard decision to come to,
01:12but I couldn't see anything else that I could do, that's the truth. So, I'm carrying on being a part
01:22of the LBC family and I'll be popping in from time to time, but I just want to say thank you
01:28for all of your support over the last year and it's been fantastic and the ratings and everything
01:35have been fantastic. So, thank you very much, it's just one of those things and I'm very sad
01:45about it, but I shall be continuing to make mischief, but just not seven days a week in future.
