Shorts week and a short week, who could ask for more ?
Loving it, loving it all...
...speaking to you live from Absolutelybeautifulsville here in sunny Berks.
Days like today fill your heart with all the right gold don't they ? Even if the backside of you is falling out the other end like mine is. I have picked up a stomach bug from somewhere, not a problem just a pain in the butt - literally. Corny but true, I daren't venture more than a few metres from a toilet at the mo', inconvenient and it means a mad dash to the studio later but I have a photo shoot later this week so at least it means I might look a little less lardy by Wednesday. Always look on the birght side eh ?
Our new website goes live today. That is the whole of Radio 2's new website. We will be launching it later on during our show. Think Yellow Submarine that's all I'm saying for now.
So hope you have been well, the family is rocking and the old man is a year older. What did I get for my birthday ? From my wife, a pair of slippers, honestly just what I wanted, I had no idea she had some idea ! Noah bought me some t shirts and a Ferrari book, damn that kid he's just too generous and my daughter bought me the coolest book of all - Ferrari Legends, maybe they'd had words. Every time I get a new Ferrari book it reminds me of being a kid as it's full of things I can't have. Not a bad discipline. My mum bought me a copy of Richard Madeley's book though I have no idea why and it's signed.
The most useful thing I have learnt in the fourteen days since we last chatted is that frozen bread makes far better toast than fresh bread by miiiiiiles. It's crispier and crunchier all the way through. Go try sweet children I promise you it is thus.

Sorry to hear you have the squits (or as my hubby would say, a runny bottom!)
Yes you will lose weight but it never stays off when you start eating normally again does it?
Easter holidays have started here, kids just chilling while I attempt to clean the house, so much to do, so little time! In to Norwich tomorrow for new shoes (them not me unfortunately) and maybe a trip to the cinema if we can all agree on a film to see.
London meet looks fab from the photos, and Bingo you're not quite what I was expecting, if you know what I mean!
Welcome back Chris, glad you had a good birthday, my hubby turns 43 on Easter Monday and I can't wait to give him his Paolo Nutini tickets! (and lots of other goodies)
Take care,

Glad your berfday was all you wanted it to be .... can't beat a good pair of slippers. I have pink ones with my beloved Arsenal crest on them ... all the way from The Armoury.
Other Deev news: have just booked a lovely 4-poster room at an old coaching inn in Norfolk (Gingembre will know the one to which I refer) for mine and Mr Deev's 13th wedding anniversary next month.

Bingo??? I've said it all along...BINGO BOP!!! (Yet to be seen during daylight hours...)

Az for yer Ferrari book, got one meself, fancy doing a swap after yuv read it???? Unless we've goot the same books!!!!
While we're on the subject of cars... whatta GP at the weekend!!!! Get's more mad by the week F1 when yuv goot rivers, sorry drivers (mind you the rain waz so bad there waz rivers across the damn circuit) like Glock thinking 'e's 1st, then second, then 3rd and poor old Lewis in the war zone again, thinking 'e waz 3rd then 5th - make 'im a stronger driver in the future though - just 'ope know, sorry now, that McLaren ave 'elped make 'im a star they're noot trying ter corrupt the dude!!!!!
Great ter see Button winning again!!!! Lookin good for this year's championship... Button's story this year iz like a film script but in it's appening for real!!!!!!
Won't be long though, before all the other teams copy Button's diffusser and catch up too 'is speed!!!
Az for Fisi - man a know the ForceIndia car iz struggling again but a wish it would come good for 'im soon - gotta feeling it will.... just wish ForceIndia would get a copy of the Brawn diffusser on the car fast and it'll make the car fast... aka the back end grip better... gotta be worth at least a second per lap!!!!!
Ok onter the BIG Blog Meet.....
Firstly just wanted ter say am really glad a finally came ter one of the meets and glad a did!!!
Just sorry a missed a few who 'ad ter go 'ome early!!!!
Az for the meet, really embarressing when a arrived only ter get jumped by B's Mum wreet in front of the big screen in front of the whole pub!!!! LOL!!
It waz great ter ave a few drinks and noot worry about driving for once and brilliant ter see LFC do it again in extra time too!!!!!
Then off ter ave ter ave a great meal. I wouldn't ave thought ter ave spanish tapis, but great food.
It waz the first time i'd been around the Canary Wharf area too - A very 'appening place... the bits that the bankers aven't blown yet that iz!!!!
And managed ter get over me opposite fear of vertigo!!!
Yeah a suffer from a VERY rare fear of tall buildings.... the vertigo opposite, when a look up at tall buildings, a feel ill..... ill!!!! So being wreet next ter the tallest building in the UK aka Canary Wharf Tower wasn't easy for me!!!!
It all started after me shrink told me ter always keep me chin up!!!!
A tell yer those shrinks can be dangerous messing with yer sanity aka with yer mind!!!!
I think it waz only the ciders that kept me feet firmly on terra firma!!!!! Mind you too many ciders and a might ave ended up struggling ter me feet firmly on terra firma - know what am sayin'!!!!!
Then near the meet end... enjoyed going ter ave a few drinks at the 'otel with Chezza, B's, Annie G and Suzie.
As for me and Suzie, we got on really well and she took me clubbing up in central London and we 'ad a great boogie atta brill club she recommended.
We couldn't ave timed it better too, just az we got upter dance a really good live band started playing loads of mototown 'its!!!! Really good vibe there!!!! A brilliant end to a brilliant dee!!!!!
PS Suzie, she's goot the most beautiful dark and mysterious eyes ave ever seen!!!!!!
Great ter meet you all and i'll defo be coming ter more meets!!!
Such a great bunch of dudes you all are... Ave been a member of many different clubs, golf, motorsport, AA DIY meetings (that's vehicle maintenance improvement/ breakdown avoidance, noot cider over indulgence) and some people can be so pompus in these clubs but the CLP bloggers... all a great bunch... all different ages and all from so many walks of life!!!!
CLP - Just wondering when your gonna join a bloggers meet.... Or 'ow about arranging a special guided tour of your studio/ office at R2 for all the regular bloggers so we can all meet the Drivetime team and vice versa- could be a good idea pal - know what am sayin'!!!!!
Finally just wanted ter say a BIG thanks ter Chezza for organising it all - yer do uz all proud Chezza!!!!
PS Loved ter wild look.... and like yer 'air!!!!!

checked your piccies on Fb, looks like all had a great time, I really will get round to bunging a pic of me on there, it's just that Fb seems to totally knacker my old 'pooter, must get me a new one - once I get me a job - does all of yours run on steam?
I thought it would be better once I had installed the hamster and wheel attatchment, it must wake up from hibernation soon!
Thanks for good wishes all, I really should have left the hoover alone, never mind, bit sorer but tidy, oh a glass of red liquid has just appeared (sp) all's well that ends well!!

The sort of person I am it WOULD be the worst that can happen, Bingo's probably got an astrological theory about it (I'm a Sagittarian).
Just been contacted by an old school friend on FB, she's lovely but I feel really nervous, god knows why!

Even though I won't hear you at all this week, it's just nice knowing you are back!
I have had one of those really rubbish days, no real reason for feeling so bad, but I am just glad it's almost home time.
The only thing that has managed to get me through this day is looking at the photos of Bingo! Gorgeous! I bet you girls must have just about fainted when he walked in!
Hiya Bingo!

It's Friday today in my world so looking forward to a couple of days of shopping (for an outfit for a hen night on thurs) and baking!
Looks like you all had a fab time at the Docklands meet... and Bingo! The most eligible batchelor on the blog methinks... and he's a scouser too! Who could ask for more

PS AF and Annie- I saw amongst the post over the weekend you were talking about something available to buy in Valvona and Crolla? Well said shop is a mere 5 mins walk from my humble abode so if you are needing something and they don't do mail order I can get it for you and post it?

So glad to have Chris back, have just changed cars, and haven't sorted out the CD's yet, so had to listen to Mayo, who I used to like, but now find a bit bland.
Nicki - sorry to hear your news
The weird pub in Beaconsfield, can just about picture where it is, my Nan lived there and I was brought (dragged) up in HW, Lady Verney, now extinct, sadly.
Now in the North West, and not looking back :)
