Maybe I have a trustworthy face.

Upon leaving Co-op, a woman thrust her dogs at me and asked (TOLD me) if I’d look after them while she nipped in for cider.

She then returned 5 minutes later with a bottle of Bud and buggered off.

This left me pondering… Budweiser ain’t cider.

So… boring post, but diagnosis needed.

Defrosted this freezer. Turned back on and it’s doing this. Silly intermittent noise every 20 seconds and not getting cold.

Any ideas?

Certain smells, tastes, and sounds can often evoke happy memories.

Playing retro games has exactly the same effect.

So in answer to this question, long live ! 👾🕹️🎮📺

Remembering the wonderful Annie Nightingale CBE, legendary radio and television broadcaster, champion of new music, fashion model and much more, who was born in 1940, and who we sadly lost earlier this year.

Happy 50th birthday commercial radio in Greater Manchester. I am proud to have worked with so many talented journalists and presenters over the decades at Piccadilly Radio, Key103 and now Hits and Greatest Hits Radio.

Saddest looking pizza I’ve ever seen.
This pizza looks like you’ve just told it that its entire family died in a house fire.

No thanks, M&S, I don’t think I want to pay £15 for a pissed off Peter Rabbit that looks like it’s going to murder us all while we sleep.

Good day today.

Began the day with interesting seminars from Ben Whitaker on AI, then attended a meeting regarding setting up a radio station with other people’s money, and rounded the day off by discovering @ASDA are doing 18 cans of StellaArtoisUK for £11.

Happy Friday!🍻

That was fun 😀
The old Globelink crew dragged into the 21st century by the original writers and cast, with the wit and humour you’d expect… and a few more F bombs thrown in.
Well worth a watch if you loved the show in the 90s. Home video release needed now.

Ah man… Wrighty… on World Radio Day too 😞
Fond memories of listening to his show in the car with my dad during school holidays, he listened to him all the time while traveling around with work. I became quite the fan and was always sad when the holidays ended!

It was only a matter of time but it doesn’t make it any less disappointing or sad. Not only for the people who grew up with these radio stations, but also for the landscape of commercial radio in the UK and what it is becoming.

Everything changes… but not always for the better.
