Mike Covell’s Blogg

I would just like to take this opportunity to say “Thank You” to everyone who has contacted me in the last week. 

The fantastic article in The Hull Daily Mail came as a lovely surprise, as I was awaiting a call for another article, and the speed in which the article came out was so quickly that I couldn’t believe it had been published already.  The online article can be viewed here:

The article also came at a time when Yesterday TV was showing reruns of Prime Suspect – Jack the Ripper, which covered the life and criminal career of Frederick Bailey Deeming.  It also featured footage of me sat at home, and on location on Hull’s Prince-street, and at Hull Prison.

As you can imagine it has been a busy week but a pleasurable one, with lots of new contacts being made. 

It was also a week which started with me being rushed into hospital again on account of my heart.  For six years I have battled ectopic beats, palpitations, and chest pains, and this Monday afternoon resulted in pains so severe that an ambulance was called.  Hopefully the problem will now be sorted but I cannot thank everyone who sent me messages, emails, tweets, and posts on social media to say “get well soon.” 

 This is just a quick post to say “Thank you.”
