Re: Today I've mostly bin...

Just before I retired I acted as liaison with the company I worked for and the Combined Services Rugby team (who we part sponsored) I was put up on an Air Force base before each match. Had to check in at the guard room with guys waving real weapons, not allowed to take car right up to Officers mess ...

Re: Classic fm

I did get a 'plug' in for the puzzlebrains web site. Whether any of my half a dozen (and a dog) listeners will log on I don't know.

Re: Classic fm

Interesting -- very interesting!! The News comes 'down the line' to us dead on the hour every hour from Independent Radio News, we then put the local news on - prepared in house by a male voice. Sounds like you got the wrong station somehow. I did have problems today, we all run the programme oursel...

Re: Happy new year

Happy New Year to everyone -- particularly those who have had a rough 2010. Going out at midnight (just to come back in) I noticed that the fireworks were well down on previous years - maybe the recession is really biting - and that there were many Chinese Lanterns in the sky - first time I have see...

Re: Happy Birthday

Played a 'live' recording of Downtown on the programme today made about three years ago at a concert in Paris and the reports are true, her voice is almost as good as it was -- in a studio recording it would be exactly the same. And clvrlad -- I am completely impartial, will plug anyone who looks af...

Re: 2010 Puzzlebrains Meet ideas

Evening All! Haven't been on the Forum I see since January, as those of you who have peeked at the facebook thingy will have noticed Ann is in a wheelchair whenever we have to go any distance (more than 10 yards) and this means we are trying to find a buyer for the caravan. I don't want it to go but...
