EPIC WEEKEND

Hey hey,... its just after 8am..have cycled home from work after doing early breakfast..Am feeling very awake. I've spent all morning having an on air debate about spiders and now I'm too afraid to go to bed in case I run into one. Pathetic I know.

It's been an epic weekend since I last posted... There was the show on Thursday which I loved and then I flew to Belfast on Friday to play at Shine's new club Stiff Kitten. It has a funktion one soundsystem which was a dream to play on. I had got a bit cocky with how few records I could carry and ended up running out of CDs so had to have a bit of an indie disco for the last 20 minutes but noone seemed to mind. The crowd was great, and I rolled into bed at 3am to be up for 7am for a flight to Scotland for T In The Park.

I was covering for Sara's shows all weekend and did all the shows out and about on site. It was alot of fun, I spoke to everyone in the artists village from Lily Allen to Hard Fi to Ricky from the Kaiser Chiefs to Dirty Pretty Things. After each radio show I went straight to the make up room and then did links for Top Of The Pops which was on last night on BBC2. Please check out all the photos here..
T in the Park

I arrived back in London late on sunday night and fell into bed so I could get some sleep before doing Jo whiley's show on Monday. Since then I've been doing the early breakfast shows... Rachel from the show came round on Monday and we spent 2 hours getting very excited about the new Friday night show..thinking of ideas and features. We are also preparing a treat for the birthday show coming up in a few weeks. And the week after that is the remix show. It's all happening!

    Hi Annie,

    Loved the early morning breakfast show while I was getting up and ready for work. Must make more of an effort to listen to your show on a Thursday evening! Bangers and Mashed sounds like a great idea. By the way, what part of Ireland do you come from?
