Dear Blogbusters,

Hi, Dave here. How are you? Hope all's well and that you've had a nice week since we last communicated via our computers like electronic penpals. Like me you'll be thrilled that once again it's my turn to update you on life in the showbusiness pressure cooker that is The Chris Moyles Show...

This week we've spent a lot of our time contemplating how difficult it is getting up early in the mornings which is an unfortunate prerequisite when doing a breakfast show of this type. Normally I like to have a little sleep in the afternoons, to rest up after a busy day on the shopfloor of our international entertainment factory, but sometimes I don’t get a chance and just have to plod on through until it's time for Brian Conley's new ´óÏó´«Ã½2 show 'Let Me Entertain You' which is oddly entertaining, especially when you're feeling a little drowsy.

Once again I'm going to have to forego this afternoon's kip because I've got too much on. Today, as well as writing this autoblogography, I've got to pick up my car from the garage (it’s been in for a 12,000 mile service) and then I've
got to go home and take photos of random appliances or objects in my flat, for reasons that have still not been fully explained.

I was actually supposed to do this yesterday like the rest of the team, but forgot. At the time of writing I'm not even sure what I'm going to take a picture of, or indeed how I will get it emailed to Hoop Dogg and the cybernerds, who will then somehow weave their media magic and get it up on the website for you to look at.

Why not see if I've managed it, and what I photographed by looking at the gallery thing after you've finished this.

This week squeezed past in a game that was held (for political reasons) in Kiev, which was weird, because while I was watching it, I realised that I was eating a with savoury rice.

Anyway, I'm going to have to blog off now cos the garage have just phoned and said that my car is ready.

So until next time, stay safe.

Kind Thoughts
Dave.

Dave just thought I'd tell you my favourite joke,
Far away in the tropical waters of the Caribbean, two prawns were swimming around in the sea - one called Justin and the other called Christian. Prawns were constantly being harassed and threatened by sharks that patrolled the area.
Finally one day during a tropical storm, Justin said to Christian "I'm bored and frustrated at being a prawn, I wish I was a shark - then I wouldn't have any worries about being eaten..." As soon as he says this a mysterious cod appears and turns Justin into a shark. Horrified, Christian immediately swims away, afraid of being eaten by his old mate.

Time went on and Justin found himself becoming bored and lonely as a shark. All his old mates simply swam away whenever he came close to them, Justin hardly realizing that his new menacing appearance was the cause of his sad plight.

During the next tropical storm, Justin said out loud" I want to be a prawn" and the mysterious cod appears and lo and behold, he turns him back into a prawn.

With tears of joy in his tiny little eyes, Justin swims back to his prawn friends in the bar and buys them all a cocktail. Looking around the gathering, he looks for his old pal. "Where's Christian?" he asked. "He's at home, distraught that his best friend changed sides to the enemy and became a shark" came the reply.

Eager to put things right again and end the mutual pain and torture, he sets off to Christians house. As he opens the coral gate, the memories come flooding back. He bangs on the door and shouts "It's me. Justin - your old friend. Come out and see me again"

Christian replies, "No way, man. You'll eat me. You're a shark. I will not be tricked."

Justin cries back "No I'm not. That was the old me. I've found cod I'm a prawn again, Christian!"

Dave you look so different to how you sound so does Dom Aled is about right and well nowt to say about Chris everyone knows what he looks like.
Update your blog will ya !

Dave,
Love your blog and love you very much but my intentions are deviating from your entry... basically the part in the show today (23/08) at about 9.50 with little dave, chris, aled and dom talking to their larger counterparts made me cry with laughter. Can u either repeat this in future shows or pls pls pls put it on the podcast as i've listened to it about 4 times online and it still is hilarious

Funny how you only realised that you were eating a chicken Kiev during a football match. What did you think you were eating before this - a pork chop hollandaise?

Can't be too judgemental though. I made a similar mistake a few months ago. One evening, my ever pertinent spouse, Mrs Dolores McCrumble, read from a newspaper that 90% of murders happen in the home. On hearing these words, I looked down at my hands and realised that I was in the process of strangling the dog!

Dave,

Did someone have to tell you that it needed a 12,000 mile service, cos I'm pretty sure you had no idea!!

We all know what your like with figures.

As for Liverpool, struggle they will, just like last season, still better than Everton.

Hi Dave,

I too watched the match last night, although I was upstairs in the study while my wife was downstairs under the impression I was studying (which is of course what you'd expect me to do in the study, - there in lies the deception - ).

For my tea I had toad in the hole and mash (Mashed Potato), shame I wasn't watching MASH (mobile Army Surgical Hospital)...or perhaps something with amphibians or french people in....oh well.

I trust you used your b'day present on Saturday Hope you got in ok, me and the mrs were delayed thanks to the new ticket system.

Anyway, never blogged before, don't know if I'll bother again....I guess you have to, its part of your job, for me its optional....

I suddenly feel I've wasted a small part of my life.

Hey Dave, decided to take time out of my busy unemployed student life to check out these blogs I've heard so much about. Like you I haven't yet got my head around this blogging revolution, I have done a few on myspace but as of yet find it hard to see the appeal or purpose. For people like yourself I imagine it would be like a self written Heat magazine, giving those who need it their daily fix of info on your life. Not overall enjoying or interesting but a strangely nice way to spend 5 minutes. I'm off to Holland tomorrow so will miss the show for about a week so take care one and all.
