Here are Jen, me and our listener Sarah at Sarah's lovely home in Wimbledon....this was us trying to wake up before the show. You can hear the show now by using the bits on the right under "Listen to iPM"...CAN I recommend the Podcast as it has extra stuff exclusive to the podcast. Including a noise from a listener!

We had a great time - Sarah looked after us, and we didn't disturb her neighbours too much. Below is a snap of Ryan the editor and Jen (with her eyes closed I think, and what appears to be a weather symbol to the right of her head) as we skulked around Borough Market in London after the show looking for coffee and a bacon roll (we found a place. Lovely). I was actually after that nice image of St Paul's in the sunrise in the background...but Ryan and Jen got in the way.

Several listeners have emailed offering their home as a venue, including:

"Location: Northern France about 45 minutes from the tunnel.
What I can offer: the sound of my cockerel crowing. He's called Louis Armstrong because he's small, black and sings a lot.
What I can offer your listeners: the lovely aroma of freshly brewed coffee and croissants.
My company: I'm Mark, I'm 44 and a bit. Work as an English teacher. I've lived here for 8 years. Partner is Catherine who's French so I've gone native. We share this place with hens, ducks, geese and rabbits.

Regards,
Mark"

What have we started?
