On the move again...

Greg James|22:28 UK time, Wednesday, 15 October 2008

After finishing the show at BBC Radio Ulster, we pegged it to 'George Best Airport' in Belfast to catch a flight to the next step on the University world tour - Sheffield.


Well, actually, we flew to Manchester and now in the car on the way to Sheffield which is about an hour or so away. This trip really is madness, non-stop travelling, meeting loads of lovely people, falling out with Producer Neil every other hour, living off crisps and bananas and doing some radio shows too.


So, we landed safely enough in Manchester after an aborted take-off. We were just about to lift off before the brakes were slammed on and we skidded to a halt. Apparently, there was some problem with the 'indicators' that the engineers had to come and fix. The phrase "I'd rather get it checked out now rather than there be a problem in the air" was uttered by the pilot on the intercom. Yes, I imagine that's probably a good idea, I thought.


Next stop Sheffield this evening - I'm on stage at about 1am, so another late one. Apparently it's a 2700 person venue though so I am massively looking forward to it.


P.S Thank you for your comments on the earlier blog called 'Geek'. The consensus was that it was geeky to write a blog on the move however as one person pointed out, it's only really geeky if I posted it on the move too. I did. And here's another one too! It's via Bluetooth and my mobile phone, if you must know. And I'm not even wearing an anorak.
