Sorry, due to a technical hitch in my studio, no Listen Again for this weeks show. Should be sorted out for next weeks show.

Unfortunately, we don't see much of that licence fee come our way

Re. 4 hrs: You're not too far from the truth.... From our Facebook group:

Zoe: Does "technical hitch" mean someone forgot to press a button? (No, surely not, only joking!) A pity, it was a great show! How about putting today's show on there instead this week? (I'll be working so I'll miss it.)

Ian: LOL! No, usually the case, but not this time. I record the show in .wav format and then convert it to VBR .mp3 for archive and Listen Again. What I DID forget was that there is a 2gb size limit for these files. Once that's reached, no warnings, the file starts writing again at zero. The extended slot meant we reached that limit, so only the last 39mins was captured. Ooops!

This weeks Topical Tuesday is on the subject of books & literature. This was a novel idea from Zoe, so, turn the right page and join me live from 2pm, with your printed word related requests, for a thriller of a show. :D

PS: Thought for the day: If a librarian tripped over a book in the Dickens section, might she have fallen on hard times? :lol:

Last week it was all about books and the written word, so this week it's all about numbers for our Topical Tuesday. I know I can count on your support, so why not join me at 2pm, with your numbers related requests? See you then!

There seems to be some kind of telepathy going on, as three people have suggested todays topic. Credit to Richard from Bolton who suggested it first, also to Hayley in Crawley and Zoe in Hitchen. All suggested "Colours", so that's our topic for today :D

Now if only I can dissuade the Welsh Shepherd from requesting a f******l related colours song.... :roll: :lol:

Brian & Noreen of St. Albans came up with todays topic - Directions. So hopefully I'll find my way up to the studio, my north & south wil be in good order, you'll be right there with me at 2pm and I won't be left to choose all the music myself. :wink:

This week, we're on the subject of clothing for our Topical Tuesday. See you @2pm, live from the wardrobe, with your topical tracks. :D

Todays topic is on the subject of rivers, so why not join me @ 2pm, with you river related suggestions? Hope the streams keep flowing! :D

Sorry Alec, didn't see this until too late, but we played Rivers of Babylon. River of Dreams was suggested, but we didn't have time. Will be playing a few of the "leftovers" over the next couple of days. Not sure I've heard James Taylors version of the Water is Wide - will have to see if I've got it. So many versions of that song though, two of my favourites being the Seekers and also Triniti.

This weeks Topical Tuesday, as suggested by Richard from Bolton is on the subject of night time. So, join me @2pm, with your topical tracks and no nodding off!

As Big L celebrates 10 years on air on 14 May, this weeks Topical Tuesday is on the subject of "Celebrations". (Not Big L in particular, just celebrations in general - any excuse for a knees-up!) So, bring a bottle and and your celebration related track suggestions and join me live from 2pm. Hic! :D

This weeks Topical Tuesday is on the subject of "Days of the week", as suggested by Brian & Noreen in St. Albans. So, why not join me live @ 2pm, with your topical track suggestions? See you then! :D
