Freddy Daybles

Why is it that when you are asked to write a piece of text about yourself, it proves to be so difficult? I first started volunteering for Vectis radio as a third host on the “Chip and Spud” Friday afternoon show in mid-2023. I then moved to the Sunday afternoon show with Billy and Sue to gain some extra experience. I now present the subsequent show to theirs, “The Weekly Wrap Up” between 4pm-6pm every Sunday.

The main thing I enjoy about volunteering for Vectis radio is allowing your creativity to run free; making something that people will find enjoyment from, while also learning some new things along the way!

Outside of the radio world, I am a lover of steam engines! I have had experience with miniaturesteam locomotives and full size ones too. I am a great believer in that everyone should have an interest of some kind. It is amazing the amount of uplifting joy it brings into your life!

Now, relating to the comment I made at the start of this text. That wasn’t so difficult, was it Fred?
