I very much doubt we'll ever see a show with Chris Moyles at the weekend again, unless of course its something like they did at 1 Big Weekend. Scott is the stand in for Reggie so we hear him now and again. I guess if Dev is happy to do the cover then there is no reason for him to stop, thats how Greg managed to get a better slot at the last major reshuffle.

Hasn't this been played on Floor Fillers or whatever its called? I know I've heard it before within the last week, I don't watch the music channels and I only listen to Radio 1 so they must already be playing it. Not sure it will make it past Scott's show though, not sure I can see the rest playing it unless its as a one off.

I don't mind if Sara is covering for someone these days, but if Fearne is off then thats only a good thing in my eyes. Nicely timed to coincide with me going onto shifts at work so I'll have more time to listen to the shows

I didn't try and get a wristband for last night because I was seeing Rich Hall and I didnt think there would be much, if any, of a gap inbetween the shows. Was so gutted when I got out bang on time and there were others walking past me with wristbands on clearly on their way to FFC

I'll need to get on the iPlayer and listen again, I'm only getting the first half hour because of work. The first half hour that I've caught has definitly been good though. I have to say that I think Dave is really under-rated, I've yet to hear him not gel with a presenter, co host or guest. I find him absolutely hilarious as well, both when it comes to his sense of humour or when he "does a Dave".

sadly not, she resurrected the "campaign" after he made comments about being reviewed by the guardian or another paper like that. He was making a valid point that the sort of person who would be reviewing him is not gonna be the sort of person who is a regular listener etc and putting his own usual "ranty" style on It. She said he was attacking a personal friend of hers when he said his bit. I may have got the wording wrong but if i remember rightly it was certainly to that affect.

There will probably be people on here who will disagree with this, but what I would say is don't stress too much when it comes to exams. Ok if you need grades etc to get into uni then I can understand you're getting a bit worried, although I would imagine you would be staying on and doing A levels or whatever they're called before thinking about uni (I went to school under the Scottish system with Standard Grades, Int 1 & 2, Highers and Advanced Highers so I don't really know much about the English or Welsh systems). At the end of the day, despite what your teachers would have you believe they are not the be all and end all. I stayed on at school and left school with various descent Standard Grades, an Int 2 and Higher A B & C and I can honestly say that the overwhelming majority of what I learnt wasn't a great deal of use in the big bad world. Naturally you want to do well, and hopefully you will, but don't go stressing because all is not lost if you don't do as well as you'd hoped. I don't know what you want to do for a job obviously, and hey you might not even know yourself. I was 24 before I decided what it is I want to do for a career. Don't go putting pressure on yourself that you don't need to, at least not yet anyway. The only advice I would give if you really do want to get a head start is do it in little chunks, if you try and take on too much there will reach a point where you stop taking in what you're reading. The best comparison I can make is I recently had to sit a PCV theory test. I bought a revision disc months ago and did little bits at a time, I tried not to do more than an hour at a time and I didn't want to do it every day because I would have grown to hate it and stop paying attention. I know others who sat the test at the same time as me and they didn't start doing revision till later than me and had tried to do it in bigger chunks than I had. Ultimately I passed with 100% and was the only one to do so and I put it down to not having put too much pressure on myself. So in short my point is this; don't stress or pressure yourself unnecessarily but if you want to get a head start do it in small manageable bits and I think you're far more likely to take it all in.

Buses don't have black alloys though

I seem to be unable to have a long lie these days, I've been an early starter at work for a very long time so I've kind of got used to getting up early but at the weekends I would still manage to sleep for a bit longer although that seemed to stop happening in the last year or so. Since I've changed jobs it seems to have got a lot worse though, At the moment I'm actually starting later than I'm used to so I'm getting up an hour later as well but I'm still not really managing to sleep that much or that well because the sleep is usually disturbed or I'm having odd dreams. Last night I drempt I was having a full on fight with a neighbour (who doesnt actually exist) because I caught him trying to steal the wheels off my car. I'm guessing this probably has a lot to do with the fact I'm very stressed at the moment but I'm concerned that it might become a vicious cycle.

They crossed a line when the Greggs went up in smoke!

Sadly anything that is done by way of a punishment is only going to cause more rioting. The girl who justified her/their actions by saying they were doing it because of the rich and they were showing the government that they can do what they want more or less confirmed that no matter what is said/done to the rioters, more will spring up and keep it all going. Unfortunately there is a mentality in this country now that the government is all wrong, taxes are wrong, cuts are all wrong, bankers are all arseholes blah blah blah. I think its gonna get worse before it gets better, I mean there have been those out there with that attitude for a while now but with the recession etc a lot more people are coming round to this way of thinking. Sad fact is that as much as I don't like the present government, I think anyone would have had to do the same no matter who was in charge, taxes/cuts etc are necessary and I don't blame the banks for it all either. However people seem to think the world owes them and they are more than happy to do whatever they need in order to take what they think they are owned. It was bad enough seeing it all on tv, but imagine if it was you sitting at home or in a pub somewhere and you realised that the shop they were looting or torching was your work or business, or it was your car on the tv going up in flames. Best thing would be to get the police out there with guns and take the bastards out the gene pool for good.

i had it going round in my head the other day, buggered if i know why though. I wouldn't say i like it but its no worse than the noise pollution that comes from her fellow female singers like Adele or Nicki Minaj. I think in general the charts have gone to shit these days. There are descent songs out there but sadly the crap seems to find its way to the top.

Makes an excellent handle

Vivian! I am offended!

There should be an option "The girl that sells the candy floss"

Well I had to drive 1 after breifly being shown the controls as part of an initial driving assessment, it was this really old double deck thing I had to drive for a little while just to see how I would manage with the size. I think I did quite well, the size of the thing is initially a little daunting but I quickly felt comfortable and I was told that my positioning and awareness would improve through experience. I just want to get behind the wheel now and start practising.

no no not off the mark, its for a PCV but it'll be an automatic service bus rather than manual coaches. If manual coaches are still being built that is....

I should point out that this is for a differnet catergory license, just incase anyone has noticed I've posted something about my car or driving in the past and was beginning to think I had been driving out with a license. I do have a car license already

Theory test, hazard perception and part of a CPC test all passed yesterday

I'm confused though, will it actually be Sara doing his show (ie with some of the team with her) or will she be going it alone?

Sadly some of us don't have much control over that

would you go as far as to say that after 10 minutes you declare yourself "out"?

Ah I see, I hadn't thought about religous schools. My school was a non-relgious one so we had the sex ed and guidance teachers etc to talk to about things. The reason I don't like Aled being a good person to front it is because of little things that occassionally get mentioned on the breakfast show such as his insecurities with clothing etc meaning he buys brands and the bizarre tracking of the boyfriend, or the trails for the surgery (I'm referring to a trail once where I heard commenting on there being nothing more painful than splitting up with best friends or something along those lines, sorry Aled but there are things a lot more painful than a fall out between friends, a hell of a lot more).

who is she though? what does she do/own that we would know of? I only have a passing interest in DD though, but might give the new series a shot.

haha oh yes, i like! put me down for 2
