Pat and I will have coffee with Cookie every Tuesday and Wednesday on BIGL 2-4pm UK time. Cookie has a last bite competition where he will play the end of a song and you email in your answers. Give cookie a listen. We love cookies show and love starting our mornings with him.

Yesterday, I had the pleasure of meeting Mary Ann, Shelley and Gary, as they joined me in the studio, for what turned out to be a very busy, live show. You can hear the show via our "Listen Again" server at http://pod.streamer1.com/

NB: you may find the server unavailable at present, due to upgrades in progress, but it will return.

My thanks to Mary Ann, Shelley and Gary, lovely to meet up with you and good fun.

I managed to 'stretch' my 30 minute break by hook or crook to cover most of your first hour
Looking forward to hearing the second hour on Listen Again!
Well done MaryAnn - your music taste is impeccable

Gee thanks. Actually my taste has improved with all the across the pond songs I learned from BIGL that we did not get in the states.

No but to ask for any Billy Joel track and have the choice as 'The Stranger' - that is seriously impressive

Was that for you? I was not sure who wanted a Billie Joel track, it was a lot of fun on Tuesday and I actually was having more fun watching Cookie and how he ran the show, it was great.

Sure was - I was having my lunch in Mcdonalds and on came this really interesting Billy Joel track which I hadn't heard before
It made my day - but I can be easily pleased

It was all great fun and went by in a flash. Unfortunately, I couldn't persuade anyone to help me read out the emails, but if you listen carefully to the Bobby Vee track in the second hour, you will hear us all singing along... Until Mary Ann cottoned on to what the green lights on the left of my desk meant, "mic channels on"

I might look dumb, but I do catch on eventually.

Who said you look dumb? Shut up Chris!!

Just a quick "Hello", as I've not been on here much lately. I've not deserted the forum, just been extremely busy lately and not had much time spare for forums etc.

Some seem to be under the impression that I've conciously decided not to visit this forum (I have visited, but not posted much recently), or that I've been influenced not to visit. In both cases, I'm happy to say, nothing could be further from the truth and will be more active as soon as time permits :-)

While I'm here, perhaps I could mention, "Coffee with Cookie" (or the afternoon show, celebrates it's first anniversary tomorrow. In fact it's a double celebrations, as the "Thursday Evening Soiree" celebrates it's second anniversary this week. Hope you'll be able to join me for one or the other, if not both. If not, then, see you back here soon ;-)

Of course we will be with you and happy anniversary for both shows. Thanks for all you do for BIGL and I enjoy your shows very much.

Thanks Mary Ann. Time goes by so quickly when you're having fun. Can't believe I totally forgot about the first anniversary of the Thursday Soiree last year!

Terrible when work gets in the way ;-)

Both shows will appear on Listen Again at http://pod.streamer1.com/

The Thursday evening show is always made available to listen again.

This week marks the second anniversary of the Thursday Evening Soiree and on the menu tonight, a long song from Fleetwood Mac. We hit the road on two wheels, with the air of the Barron Knights and Jasper Carrot to bring a smile. It'll take forever to decice which Hour Two Opener to vote for and we'll take you back to 1973 for our 5-from-10 Chart Recall. Plus your emails and requests, as ever, live from 7pm. Hope to see you then.
