Dear All - Please try Radio FIP (French state run) it has the most amazing selection of music. You can either listen over the internet or download a file which then plays it through iTunes.

I love most types of music, and they are all played there, best of all, very little 'chat' and no adverts.

In light of Honaloochie's comments re: Jono Coleman I did a quick search before starting a thread and was thrilled to be reminded that the lovely Bellenden Belle shares the hate


"I am only relieved that Jono Coleman has left the London breakfast show. He was like an overgrown schoolboy - I found myself SCREAMING at the radio...

"

Radio 2 early in the am with Sarah Kennedy.


Radio 4 most of the rest of the day as it is like a talking clock, I know what time of the day it is by whats on.


Radio 3 sometimes for a change.


Radio 7 which is infuriatingly on digital, so you of course need to buy a digital radio to receive it, or sky tv chanels.


Some times catch Vanessa when I'm driving, who is best on radio, I can't stand watching her on tv. She is a cut above the rest of the flotsam on that station.

I am not ashamed ( *Bob* you can hide behind me now) "I LOVE THE VANESSA SHOW" on BBC London 94.9 9-12 am Monday-Saturday It's radio at it's best, yes it is .....mmmm all warm and cudly, funny , erudite, la la la....kiss kiss



"Hello lovely listeners" Oh how the hairs on my arms stand up.....oh mmmm.




"Ahem................now where were we" ?




W**F

I love radio 4. (Currently mark twain's autobiography, the news quiz, food programme, excess baggage, archers, previously sorry I haven't a clue with humphrey littleton)


Sometimes Classic (without the annoying ads would be even better)


Old comedies on radio 7 (dad's army, steptoe)


Absolute 80s (without the really irritating bits between the cheesy music, can of quattro anyone? Jeez)

I'm lazy with my choices, even hitting favourites on DAB has become a chore. Mainly 5 live, really like The Monday NIght Club but think 'Motty' should stick to what he knows (knew). Annoyingly Colin Murray (Kopite) has grown on me but I've never quite got Fighting Talk, just makes me cringe. Richard Bacon (no known footy affiliation) has the greatest booker in tv and radio, everyday he has great, interesting guests.


Radio 4 is catered for by Review of the Week but is too unashamedly middle class. Some of the comedy is great, some awful.


I often spin over to World Service, randomly some great features and less randomly the greatest phone in footy show anywhere in the UK.


That's about it, dislike commercial, not snobbery just hate the ads. Love music but never really tune in to listen to it.

    • Now a good curry…yummy… beats slaving over a hot stove, endless potatoes for roasties plus carrots and parsnip peeling..  Christmas pudding made with cream or brandy sauce. when one things about it, obscene the amount of food one consumes on the big day… and then the washing up…. Used to cook for 10 so do know what I am talking about…grant you, nice to have company and friendship but now reached the age when I am quite happy having a curry, wandering around in my PH’s all day and eating, watching, doing what I want when I want.. Think actually that Gail’s staff can’t say no not working… sacked I would think but equally catering for people who might be in Dulwich for the holidays and visiting and in an air b n b..  Put of interest, is this the only Gail’s opening? Or are they all opening? Plenty of other places open on the day… sure cafes in city are open…And of course, always MacDonalds..!!!  
    • When I managed a large staff group, and workers were needed for Christmas day, there was always a queue of people wanting a shift, for many reasons.  Where is the problem-why is it shameful?
    • 🎄Are you flying solo for Xmas?   🎄Let’s be honest-it can be weird. But maybe it’s also a chance to just …chill.   🎄How are you planning to treat yourself and make the day feel good?   🎅🎅🎅🎅🎅All ideas welcome.    ✌️Drop yours below. 🎄🎄🎄
    • Until the licencing laws changed in the late eighties, pubs were only allowed to open Sunday hours on Christmas Day, so 12 'til 2, and the majority didn't open in the evening unless it was for a 'private party'. But that's another story. The landlord of my old local used to let everyone double or treble up at last orders so that you could avoid having to watch the Queen's Speech with your Nans at three o'clock. Dulwich Tandoori is open Christmas Day for those who don't fancy Gail's.  'Festive Flavours', apparently.
