The Boys Are Back In Town...
It felt so good to be back on air tonight. I don't know whether that was to do with being off sick in the past week or just the fact we were playing music again. There were some crackers tonight - Sean by The Proclaimers was the highlight of the night for me. I was roaring it out at the top of my voice.
I promised that I would add the Perry Family's A-Z to the blog so everyone can have a look. If you are inspired then we'll come back to 'names' both male and female in the next couple of weeks. Here's their e-mail:
" We couldn鈥檛 let the chance pass, so we have drawn one up for boy鈥檚 names, not complete by any means, but at least we鈥檝e had a go 鈥 how sad are we? But we love the show.If you are not too frazzled this time, could you please play My Cousin Kevin by The Undertones for us."

And finally, we have Jack, Stan, Roy, Gus and Lee all in the one song, Fifty Ways to Leave Your Lover by Simon and Garfunkel!
You just slip out the back, Jack
Make a new plan, Stan
You don't need to be coy, Roy
Just get yourself free
Hop on the bus, Gus
You don't need to discuss much
Just drop off the key, Lee
And get yourself free
She said it grieves me so
To see you in such pain
I wish there was something I could do
To make you smile again
I said I appreciate that
And would you please explain
About the fifty ways to leave your lover.
