  1. Well I guess what you say is true

    Well it's looking fine and dandy here and all set for a fine weekend. A return to normal next week of course (its half term, what else would you expect?) but for the moment it's time to shave those armpits. Why had no one explained this before? Our smell expert was quite adamant, lose the hairs...

  2. Jumping like a jumping jack

    Back door open, fans on, brows mopped. Super-hot Thursday for most.

  3. We could steal time

    Thanks for the posts yesterday, we were feeling our way minute by minute and I think we ended up with the right balance.

  4. Update

    Thanks for bearing with us. We'll be on from 5 as usual and most of the show will be the same, however, just for today, I'll pick the oldies. Hopefully we'll be back to normal tomorrow. Thanks for bearing with us...

  5. A work in progress

    Morning to all. To be honest we aren’t sure what kind of a show will be in place by 5pm. We, like you, are still reeling from the horrific attack in Manchester last night. We think Albert Hammond will still be our guest and my guess is that most of the show will run as normal but it’s too early ...

  6. Throw away your fancy clothes

    The back door is open already and not because I forgot to lock it. It's warmer in the south east I know but it's looking pretty good for most this week, and the heating is off again.

Films first (after much gnashing of teeth and compu...

  8. I Viewed The Morning With Much Alarm

    Oh hey. How's it all looking with you? Thursday already and we're off already planning today's mighty fine show. Yesterday with Giles Martin was fascinating I thought, like listening to a master craftsman at work. Imagine taking your work to Sir Paul McCartney for marking! So many stories...

  9. Leave your cares behind

    Soggy Wednesday in these parts with the likelihood of more sogginess to come. Waterproofs are out, bright yellow sowester needed. So onwards with a grand show on the way starring as it does Giles Martin, son of legendary Beatles producer George Martin.

  10. Yoko brought her walrus

    Back door open before 7, mildness abounds. Joy to the world. Feels like a good one today, hope all good with you. Actually the sunniest blast this morning is Jo Whiley on the cover of Radio Times, busy tending the Radio 2 plot/allotment/garden at Chelsea. And dungarees are back! And pink t-shirt...
