Oh JOY of JOY.....


Danny Baker will return to the BBC London 94.9fm airwaves on the 18th of April.


I am overjoyed however,since his absence I've strayed off the dial after 3 p.m.


( there is only so much Gary Crowley a man girl can take. I can do 10 minutes before I throw the cat at the radio or shave my hair off )


So today, for the first time in ages at work and then in the car, I listened to BBC radio 1. ( no really, I did )


IT MADE ME LAUGH LOTS....


( I may be suffering from a form of cabin fever/ oasis vision syndrome )


The candy man may well save the day.

Ahhhh hhhhaaaa....


You are a pleb. Where have you been, serving a sentence in solitary confinement for the last few years?


Danny baker is a comic genius, that you don't recognise that is your loss.


Surely you loved the Daz ad's, no ?

BBC Local Radio Under Threat, which includes BBC London 94.9fm.


The BBC are thinking about cutting back on local radio programmes and only making breakfast and drivetime shows. The rest of the time they would broadcast 5 Live.

In London that would mean the end of the excellent Danny Baker & the Robert Elms show, plus Jazzy B.

Also the sports coverage of local ( london ) teams.


Are the BBC FU(KING MAD ?


Jeezus H Christ, someone should put the board and the chairmans heads on a pike.

I try to avoid TV for the most part. I think I may have seen one of them once or twice, but it left no lasting impression.


Also, "ad's"?

Local radio in London is not up to much compared to its regional brethren. This afternoon I had the pleasure of Radio Wiltshire for about 20 mins on the M4. It went as follows:


Billy Ocean - When the going gets tough


An interview with a man who had written a puzzle book


The travel news - there wasn't any apparently


Enrique Iglesias


The Cake of the Week slot


Whitney Houston - I will always love you. (Described by the DJ as "having a lot of notes in it.")


I mean how can Danny Baker and co expect to compete with that kind of broadcasting gold?

Well Nashoi I do agree. I'm being a right ol' n.i.m.b.y. here.


So, leave MY radio station alone or i'll march on Parliament.


Cake of the week, now that's great on radio.

      One (part of) Dulwich

      Well worth signing up to become a "supporter" as they send their updates and often shed light on things the council and their supporters would rather didn't get too much attention! https://www.onedulwich.uk/get-involved

      Latest One Dulwich update

      Spot on...and they rant against "anonymous" groups like One Dulwich and then post missives from "anonymous" lobby groups like Clean Air Dulwich without any sense of hypocrisy or irony...

      Latest One Dulwich update

      By Penguin68 · Posted

      The original council proposals for the area around the Dulwich cross roads were made well before Covid - and were rejected then by locals. The council used the Covid legislation to push through the LTNs when opposition was not allowed. LTNs, as experiments were some good (reduced traffic in areas which did not push traffic elsewhere and which did meet the needs of residents - typically in places very well served by public transport and where the topology (absence e.g. of hills) allowed wide use of cycling and walking - not as it happens a good description of the Dulwich (inc ED, WD and ND) areas.)  Dulwich never met Southwark's own description of ideal LTN areas, but did happen to match Southwark Councillor ambitions dating way back. One Dulwich has been clear, I believe that it is anti this LTN but not, necessarily all LTNs per se. But as it is One Dulwich is has not stated views about LTNs in general. In the main those prepared to make a view known, in Dulwich, have not supported the Council's LTN ambitions locally - whilst some, living in the LTN area, have gained personal benefit. But it would appear not even a majority of those living in the LTN area have supported the LTN. And certainly not those living immediately outside the area where traffic has worsened. As a resident of Underhill, a remaining access route to the South Circular, I can confirm that I am suffering increased traffic and blockages in rush hours whilst living some way away from the LTN. All this - 'I want to name the guilty parties' -' is One Dulwich a secret fascists cabal whose only interest is being anti-Labour?' conspiracy theorising is frankly irrelevant - whoever they are they seem to represent feelings of a majority of actual residents either in the LTNs, or in parts of Dulwich impacted by the LTNs. And I'm beginning to find these 'Answer me this...' tirades frankly irritating.
