I have had the pleasure of interviewing him, having long chats about wildlife in our gardens, and sharing dinner with him in a local vegan restaurant. I honestly couldn’t be more sad.

“Practical and informative – the ideas keep coming. The Q & A sessions are brilliant. I ghost write articles and needed to boost my profile. It has helped me get more work. “
