This week: a long song from Elton John. Captain Beaky will be along, with an Easter egg to bring a smile. Will it be an Easter Chic or an Easter Lamb for our Hour Two Opener vote? We'll take you all the way beck to 1959 for our 5-from-10 Chart Recall. Plus, as ever, your emails and requests, live from 7pm. See you then! :D

Oh, once or twice, as I recall.

This week, a classic long song, that's been in the news this week. We bring a smile, as we pay tribute to the late Stan Freberg. I's a summery choice for our Hour Two Opener vote and we'll take you back to 1985 for our 5-from-10 Chart Recall. Plus, as ever, your emails and requests, live from 7pm. See you then!

Nice to have you with us this evening/afternoon Debbs. Hope things are as well as is possible with you. Thinking of you.

Any excuse to get the shorts on - Todays Topical Tuesday is a Tropical Tuesday - Here comes summer! Suggested by Big Dave and Secret Chris, two ideas, close enough to be combined. So why not jion me @2pm with your shades and sunny suggestions. See you then and don't forget the suncream!

This week: A long song from Golden Earring. Peter, Sophia and the Barron Knights will be serving up something to bring a smile. Don't forget to rememebr to vote for your choice of Hour Two Opener. We'll also take you back to 1978 for our 5-from-10 Chart Recall. Plus, as ever, your emails and requests, live from 7pm. See you then! :D

You expect me to remember that far back?

Was that the one with Elvis on offer?

And what's wrong with Mr. Loaf?

Both great tracks, but have to admit, I would have voted Tropical, if I had a vote. One of my all-time faves.

As for getting away with it today, dunno, but back then, it was taken for what it is. A great, whimsical, feel good summer track. Or perhaps, back then, there weren't so many people looking for someone to take offence on behalf of, where none was intended or taken.
