"Oh Andy..."
There have been a few 'Oh Andy' moments this weekend. "All request Friday" and yesterday's Johnnie Walker show were full of them. This refers to the bit in "Toy Story 3" where the mum goes up to Andy's room, and because he is leaving for college and has removed all posters and possessions, just stands there, looks around and says 'Oh Andy...' Not a dry eye in the house. Thank heavens for the 3D glasses eh?
So this weekend was spent taking child1 to his new University life and at least he found it easy. The motorway network-lousy as it is-was enlivened by passing,and being passed by, loads of people carriers all full to the brim with student essentials and worried parents.
Todays programme offers you Seal live after 6 (talking not singing as he is saving himself for the radio theatre) and lets do oldies about FIDELITY. Inspired by the chap who appears to have had 10 children by 10 different women. Songs please about sticking together and being loyal, faithful and honourable.
Marvellous. Have a great Monday and see you at 5.05

Our 'Oh Andy' moment will be next Sunday when our youngest departs for University, her brother went back to University last week. Not looking forward to it- apart from the fact that her bedroom will be tidy for at least a month or two! A new chapter in life for all of us.
How about LET'S STICK TOGETHER by BRYAN FERRY for my oldies choice today?

#87 It's so daft. We have seen a house we really like so I requested the details from the estate agent. 2 weeks later, nothing received. Telephoned the agent this morning and asked for details to be emailed as we were thinking of making an appointment to view. I asked how long it had been on the market. 6 months. As it is sensibly priced, I asked what was putting people off. Don't know, was the reply. I think it is because the agent fails to send out the details to anyone who requests them!!!
