a cheery wave

from the 7am train to Norfolk. It's a sunny rattle through the gentle and uneventful countryside but still feels a little on the early side. Still, cheery school children await and who am I to make them have lessons instead.
Just seen that today is the anniversary of the worlds longest radio show that I did for Comic Relief in 1999. Was talking to Jo Whiley about it just last week as she gets ready for her 'spend a whole day on a running machine' adventure. At least I could sit down. Mind you, I'm still recovering from trying to interview Mr Blobby after 30 hours of nonstop radio. Terrible awful ghastly. Not the finest moment but one Jo will be spared, fortunately.
Today it's John Carter Cash, son of Johnny and producer of a lost album of his father's. And it's great! Someone at his record label in 1984 decided it wasn't good enough and so it never saw the light of day. How wrong that decision was you can judge tonight.
And on the 25th anniversary of Tim Berners Lee presenting a paper detailing his plans for this new fangled idea of an internet-type thing, songs for the INTERNET would be of interest.
Trains permitting, see you at 5
