Back in the old routine
1st September. Autumn and school are back. I'm sure that I'm not the only adult who still, decades after leaving school, feels a twinge of nervousness about the start of term. A rogue butterfly still flutters when the new school year kicks in. Anyone else suffer from this?
Last night with Lissie was terrific stuff I thought. I'm watching the video we took while she was performing while writing this. A fantastic voice. I really wasn't sure she should have gone for a version of Stairway to Heaven as her contribution to the Great British Songbook (you can see me looking on nervously as the song starts) but she nailed it. Listener response was stunning- I thought the purists would hate it but that voice just works brilliantly and carried all the doubters with it. Do watch it!
Today we welcome the great James May to Drivetime. Captain Slow delivers his latest book "How To Land An A330 Airbus And Other Vital Skills For The Modern Man". He's always been my favourite Top Gear host and adds class to any show he graces so looking forward to James after 6 today.
And lets do that 'back to work theme' for the oldies. Back in the old routine indeed. And you may have been back ages anyway but now you have the satisfaction of knowing everyone else is too. Please leave your thoughtful considerations below.

Well it's lovely and sunny here in Lincolnshire today. Here's hoping CLP is right about the Indian September, it should set us up for the winter if it comes to pass.
Will be thinking of a suitable suggestion for today's feem.
From the previous blog:-
Billy - that's the spirit my lovely - don't be beat - I'll second your ARF opener but, having said that, it may take a while - see MTF. T'other side is anywhere that's not here (doh! that's obv), usually, FB, Tw!tter... Not sure what CLC is - can you give me a frinstance?
Deebee - thinking about you and your Mum - looking forward to hearing how she's progressing.
Listened to the Lissie cover last night whilst chatting to my dear old Mum so I had it down low but it sounded absolutely amazing - will definitely listen again. I had an inkling that would be the cover as it is a huge song and was so thrilled with her version.
Is there going to be a CD produced of the Great British Songbook?
Anyhoo, off for a think - back in a bit.

Busy blogging today - love it! Well done for the 50, PSL. And only just after 10.30 too.
I love James May - not sure I'd agree with Simon about him being the best Top Gear presenter, but then I don't suppose our esteemed leader is as affected by the charms of the Hamster as I am ;o) But he is indeed a top bloke - I've met him a few times and he's lovely. Not at all celeb-like, just like a guy you'd meet down the pub really. The last time I went to a recording of Top Gear he was serving the tea during the break.
Mum's doing well, thanks for the good will messages. She should hopefully be out of hospital on Friday.
Will poop back later with some song suggestions - if I can think of any.

This morning, I find myself writing up my diary from the America trip, and it's hard going. I feel my 3 word Wednesday should relate to that, so here goes: 'Can't read handwriting [oops]'
I would have to second the Withersy suggestion by PSL. I would equally have to congratulate PSL on the 50. Good work peeps - keep it up.
I shall hopefully be in throughout proceedings today. And I LOVED Lissie yesterday. Her voice tugged at the heartstrings, and I was driving when she did the British songbook cover, and almost felt the need to pull over and stare in awe at the radio.

Hey Malcolm, good luck with writing up your diary - if you need any help deciphering your handwriting, please feel free to ask. I have worked for some of the worst hand-writers ever, and none of them doctors surprisingly, so have developed the knack of being able to decipher the worst of scribbles.

I'll be proffering some cake myself at the beginning of December but I just thought there'd be lots of cake on 16th April with there being a double celebration that day.
AT - that's rotten news about your OH's (BP OH = other half) car. How blimmin' cheeky can these thieves be, breaking in and nicking the keys first? It's beyond belief. Is it safe to assume your birthday is on 17th September or are my calculations less than accurate?

But I seem to have left my thinking cap at home :( Ho hum, never mind - I've had more than my fair share of menshes, although there's always the slight worry that the last one will be, well, the last one. But it's getting less about getting my name on the radio and more about enjoying the company of you lovely people. As Simon said last week, a fine bunch of bloggers indeed!
And it's not even Friday yet.

But hey, at least I have been the very, very first to wish you a happy sixtieth. And can I be the first to also wish you happy birthday for the many, many birthdays you have between now and your actual sixtieth.
