Just strolling around another site by accident, I wonder what happened to: Brenda Paterson / Jenny Farish / Abeer Parkes / Cathy MacDonald / John Milne / Louise Batchelor / Jaldeep Katwala?

Abeer MacIntyre as she became was a presenter on BBC Radio Scotland for a while. Wikipedia says she now works for Mary's Meals.

One of the Louise's from Reporting Scotland is now a Political Reporter based in London, I've seen her on the NC a few times. But that might be Louise Stuart (I always got them mixed up).

Jenny Farish works for Smooth Radio, John Milne I think is retired now (maybe not tho), Brenda Paterson is still in London at the BBC, unsure as what tho!

Yeah, that'll be who I'm thinking of as it's always been the weekend when I've seen her.

She presented weekend bulletins a few weeks ago as well. Is she a trained journalist?

I don't know what anyone else thought, but I fair enjoyed Charles and Camilla presenting the weather from the Reporting Scotland studio.

Led-in by none other than Sally Magnusson. One wonders where the other one was?
