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.



Nette:)

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.

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.

      This problem has been going on since before Covid due to the closure of the Dulwich sorting office. The local MP Ellie Reeves is aware and has written to the Post Office. They give the same generic responses about 'temporary' staffing issues. Would encourage people to email Ellie Reeves. It's about time this was finally resolved!

      Sorry to hear you are having issues. Fwiw, we received a regular letter this week. Maybe it's worth asking at the Dulwich delivery office (it's in West Dulwich, though. Their phone number is 03457740740) to see if there are aware of any issues in your particular area?  I've seen cases in the past were the a particular postie was sick and they didn't cover for them, they just let everything accumulate for a couple of days until the person was back.

      Mal, it is related to this issue and if you scroll back a few pages you will see that Brockwell was brought up in relation to this (not by me I hasten to add). Do you not think it seems perfectly reasonable for people to be able to reference a neighbouring event - one that is having a number of challenges not too dissimilar to the ones Gala is having?     These sentences from the BrixtonBuzz article I linked seem very pertinent too:  The concern, they argue, is not just about permits, but about the Council’s repeated failure to follow proper planning processes and its habit of acting in the interests of commercial promoters rather than the local community.   And this: The group is now calling on residents to write to their local MP and councillors, accusing the Council of using legal mechanisms to avoid scrutiny.

      Mal, like it or not, it does have some bearing on other councils. There was an item about it on Times Radio on Sunday - Kate Borsay, a presenter who lives locally, referenced Peckham Rye in relation to the Brockwell case. As the reporter pointed out, local councils will all be talking to each other and closely following how things unfold. If a precedent is set with Brockwell, other councils will be under greater scrutiny.
