You may have noticed that before Christmas I wasn’t working with Richard much. That’s because Richard was preparing to return to Sky London to work there.
This picture is from one of our first shoots - if not the first, back in April 2004 ish- for the Irish bulletin about smoking bans in public places.
Whilst he enjoyed travelling across the region, the Indian bureaucracy did not treat him well and he found it very hard to come to terms with.
After 7 years overseas, he was looking forward to returning somewhere clean, orgainsed and easy to live.
Back to work tomorrow with a new correspondent, Alex Crawford who is fresh out from the UK and rearing to go.
The next few months are going to be busy.
