Once again, it’s been a very busy time for me since the last update in November!

The television experience that was ‘Make It At Market’ is still providing a non stop and quite brilliant whirlwind of life changing experiences and opportunities. Here’s the quick low down on what’s been going on and what’s coming up.

First though, let me quickly answer the most asked question …

How can I buy a bird?

These remain in high demand! The best way to find out when birds are available is to join my website mailing list using the box below. There will be an announcement, by email, to that list on 31st March providing further details.

Please note: These birds will fly the nest very quickly, potentially in just a few minutes!

So what else has been going on?

So far this year it’s continued to be pretty eventful!

January saw me taking another step on my journey, moving to a new workshop and tailoring it to my requirements. It’s turned out very well, I learned some new skills putting it all together as I wanted it and I’m super happy there. I’ve also had a few ‘special guest's’ come to visit …

The end of the month saw the television cameras returning for an unexpected bit of filming and a catch up with the lovely Zoe Pocock from Make It At Market.

This was for a ‘follow up’ program to the original, a 'where are they now’ kind of thing. A really fun day. Grateful to be given the opportunity to say a few heartfelt thank you’s and share with everyone what it’s been like for me in the year since the program came out.

‘I Made It At Market’, episode 1 will be aired on British Television: 7th April 2026, BBC 1 @ 3.45pm. Enjoy the show!

For anyone interested in hearing a little more about my story, you can also watch me having a fun conversation on the Podcast of a local up and coming YouTube channel.

‘Phoenix History’ … also known as Dan and Sophie, were very welcome visitors on a couple of occasions recently. You can view the original podcast below.

We also filmed a follow up video. A fun workshop day saw me demonstrate a few basic techniques and put first time metal worker / welder, Sophie to the test!
