Yes, I thought that, too - definitely good "radio voices". But I couldn't tell who was who on radio...

well done lads, just listened.

Why do interviewers always feel the need to say things like "it's all old men in cloth caps..." when who they are interviewing are plainly not?

I was interviewed recently for our "trendy" station about morris dancing and their opening gambit was "it's all old men with beards isn't it?" to which I could only reply "I am not old, a man, nor thanks to the wonders of oestrogen, bearded". I could hear their brains rattling as they tried to work it out :roll:
"yum, yum, piggy's bum!"

I've got the feeling they've not been online since yesterday morning - could someone who lives in Bristol please check out all the pubs to see if they are still celebrating their new fame? :mrgreen:

Well we did have a couple of pints afterwards but stayed with mates in London. Really good that you all listened. I posted a sort of blog type post in the chat area about it all.
