Gloomy day but not on the big show...
Well, well, well. What a great load of emails I was faced with when I came into work today. Firstly, thank you to Leigh in South Wales for sending me this:

Proving that the greeting 'Welcome Along' really is taking over the world.
Also, there is some great news reagarding the Red Light Company record of the week jingle. In case you don't know, whenever I pick a record of the week, (a song that I champion and play once a day for a week) I politely ask the artist to record a jingle for me for the show. I found out this week that Red Light Company (their single 'Arts and Crafts' is my record of the week) are in fact spread out across the world. Some of them on holiday and some of them are at home for the holidays. The incredible thing is that they have very kindly done this video for me from all corners of the globe - kind of. It is very impressive and it makes me love this band even more.
Have a peek:
More best bits of the radio, Westwood's TV Picks, an amazing development for the Flash Flash song and a load more guff from 4 this afternoon!

Welcome Along indeed, I keep getting welcomed along on MSN because its in my name. As well as Union Oohnion Onion.
Thats really good form from the red light company, I admire their dedication to the big show.
Trying to get through a pile of maths work, its a struggle, but Colin Murray's keeping me sane right now. You being back on early's is not going to be good for my health in any way. At least at the moment when I dont get to sleep to 4am I can give up and keep trying...
Really looking forward to wednesday!
Much Love
