Hello Dear Listeners,

Did you miss us? We've been on break for the summer holidays. We're back now and in this episode, Judy and I talk about some of the summer adventures that we've each had, and hint at some exciting things to come both in our lives personally and in the world of PD.

Please note: I was coughing throughout this recording, hence why my voice was cutting in and out. I'm better now.
