Random musings and general banter.

Group Captain Knowles on air with I Never Lie to You this Leap Year. The Group Captain is a good man and would make a much better give an informed choice presenter than the olea...oleg...oily gentleman alongside him.

No Pedro today, he's only just come back

 

[Duke of Cheese]

Sssh... don't say anything. He might come back again.

He's probably taking Mike's shifts as well as his own.

General Knowles says his daughters just buy dodgy rubbish from the Internet. Dodgy rubbish from the Internet?? Flying out the door.....

Off on a UK tour of petrol stations - telling disinterested cashiers who he used to be.

He's got that crappy turntable tonight at 9, with a free gift of Elvis's greatest hits LP, which we won't be able to hear.

Thanks for that, I'll make sure I'm busy at 9pm!

 

[Duke of Cheese]

Elvis’s Greatest Hits on Cassette. Comes with free gift - a plastic and balsa wood effect turntable with real leatherette trim.

Such a shame I’ll miss it - working tonight, damn

I am reasonably musical myself and have played guitar since I was a kid. I have a decent enough singing voice.
But I don’t go giving it the biggun by telling anybody I meet that I FEEEL Music and am a ‘specially chosen one’ in all things musical. Clearly, that feel
music guff is the language of somebody who feels superior. Just like all the seemingly ironic gorgeous bald fella rhetoric he so tediously repeats, which you strongly suspect he really believes.

We've all got our own relationship with music but it's not a competition. The way Ofthemasons talks makes it sound like he is superior to us mere mortals. It's very patronising.

Think I will watch Football, They must have a job lot on those Blinking LPs

Speaking of music, I've just discovered a song on Spotify I hadn't heard before.

It's about someone who is fed up listening to a bragger who won't shut up, and finally answers back. Its called "Your mind is on vacation and your mouth is working overtime"

I don't know if this put down could be used on any presenters on IW...

Hope it's not a 120 cassette as they were prone to snapping in my experience.

They just had a long leatherette coat. It looked like the one Herr Flick used to wear in 'Allo 'Allo

Remember having to put a pencil in the cassette to wind the tape Back in

I remember it well, a pencil was the perfect size.

Maybe I’m a tad younger than many, but does anybody else remember taping the Top 40 every Sunday, and getting angry if the tape ran out half way through a song

I remember that well, or getting wound up at the DJ if he talked over the intro, or cut the song off early. I had two radios, one tuned to Radio 1 and the other to Radio Caroline. Radio Caroline was really difficult to pick up in NI so it was best NEVER to retune
