Ranaldo Bairn Posted October 3, 2018 Share Posted October 3, 2018 As someone who doesn't get to listen to the radio during the day because of work, I still pine for the days of Mark and Lard on Radio 1 in the afternoon. Ten until twelve on weeknights surely? The golden age of radio. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Archie McSquackle Posted October 3, 2018 Share Posted October 3, 2018 They got shunted around a fair bit, even being given a shot at the coveted breakfast show. They maybe worked best on the late night slot but I had more chance to listen to them in the afternoon. I still don't know how they got away with the vinyl collection! I think they knew there time was up at Radio 1 and were trying to see how far they could push it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pittsburgh phil Posted October 3, 2018 Share Posted October 3, 2018 Just saw on twitter that Mark Radcliffe is saying he's going to be off for the foreseeable future as he has lymph node and tongue cancer. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have until January to find something else to listen to in the mornings until Ken Bruce comes on. Absolute Radio has the best breakfast show IMO. Was outstanding until they changed presenters at the start of the summer, but it's still good. Ken Bruce is a good choice, however. Pop Master is excellent. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I fell out with Absolute radio last week when I heard the top 100 from the last decade. The top 10 is abysmal and 11 - 20 are actually better. They still have the habit of forgetting they're a nationwide station and not London only. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I should have twigged something was amiss when the first guy almost bailed on the wedding at the last minute as he couldn't afford it! This was 5 days before.... Were you charging admission to the wedding? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wedding was at a country house that we had sole use of for Tues - Thurs (wedding on Wednesday). Groomsman was concerned he couldn't afford it when I text the week before to say that it's bring your own food/drink for the Tuesday night. The 2 groomsmen still managed to turn up late on the Tuesday by sitting in Wetherspoons in Inverurie for most of the afternoon.

My dad used to be a store manager for M&S and one day our neighbour (a very short lady) was in the store. She was trying to get something out of one of the chest freezers and toppled in head first. Had to be hauled out by the ankles. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
