Drill, gargle and spit
Apologies for lateness, this was the fault of Bombay Mix. One innocent mouthful of that lovely night time snack and I was a tooth down. So today's trip to the dentist has knocked out the schedule somewhat, not to mention all feeling in my gums. No coffee has passed my lips for fear of dribble and being pointed at ("that looks like that bloke off the radio, what a state-shall we give him money?). I am told that all feeling will have returned by 5pm but you will be the judge of that.
Assuming all is normal we welcome Pixie Lott to drivetime, she sings in the Great British Songbook Library (in reality, a space between 2 sofas) after 6. We'll be filming Pixie and you'll be able to watch her performance on the website very soon after the show.
And songs please to mark the fact that the new Wall Street movie is number 1 in the USA. So that's songs about GREED please. Whatever you fancy,as long as GREED is writ all the way through it.
And I officially apologise to the whole of Radio 2 for infecting them with the Bill Bailey cold. Chris is suffering with it big time but there is comfort from the knowledge that it is a comedy cold with its roots deep in showbiz. So much classier than the common cold dont' you think?
Must go, I feel a tingle somewhere...

Pheee-ew! Thank goodness they hadn't seen him a couple of weeks ago outside the local convenience store when he was bearing his bot (a claim he strenuously denies) and playing chicken (a claim he shamefully admitted).

Meetings, meetings, meetings - one of them being a meeting to discuss the next meeting. Classic.
Doesn't look like I missed much - quiet here today. Well done on the 50 Malcolm - hat looks good on you! Paul - your hat, what can I say other than "well-deserved".
I am wondering if I need chocolate and, if I do, whether it should be a bag of chocolate buttons or a kit-kat (other choc varieties available, many to be found in newsagents based in Sheffield, I believe).

The question goes as follows: 'Herr Wagner, do you spell your name viz a V?'
Answer: 'Nein, W'
I have a load of quiz questions ready today, so I could fish out 1 of those if anybody wants it?

Mice and their boyfriends
Two female mice are bragging about their boy friends.
First shows a picture of a young rat.
Second show a picture of a bat.
"That's a bat", the first one says.
"The rotter!" says the other one. "He told me he was a pilot..."
