Time marches on! And thank goodness it does because, like a squirrel faced with autumn food abundance, I am fast becoming a ball of inefficient over-excitement. As I sit at my desk here in Swindon I can't help but let my mind wander to the island and the BBC Autumnwatch crew currently setting up there. Still, one more office day, a bit of manic packing and then i'm off.
Our October wildlife and countryside podcast is now live with a little preview of how Kate and Bill feel about their new home and the inside story from the island staff, who I'll be getting to know a whole lot better over the coming weeks.
