Farewell, Emma - and good luck from Swansea

The Swansea Bay media  is about to lose one of its most engaging reporters.
Emma Judd (right) has been a real character in the South Wales Evening Post newsroom.
Her humour and strong personality have seen her become popular with workmates and contacts.
With a couple of weeks left before she joins well-regarded Porstmouth paper The News, she's been reflecting on her time in Swansea.
She told Media Master: "The people of Swansea have given me so much diverse news to write about - from church fairs to murders!
"A highlight was helping Topic House, the older people's info centre in Mayhill, get names for their war memorial. One lady read my story and, as a result, ensured her father's name was on the memorial. Without the story, he wouldn't have been given the public acknowledgement he deserved.
"That was one of my best days ... and I thank all those who've made me so welcome."
Emma should enjoy England's south coast - she's been there before and even has the accent.
Good luck, Emma - and enjoy your forthcoming birthday.
She'll be 30, don't you know?
