  1. Nooooooooo!!!

    I love the Apprentice, but I don't even have enough time to do all my school work, so how am I supposed to watch this in March? :( I'll have to skip all the twitter conversations about it, I guess, or I'll be getting jealous...

  2. Hey everyone... I was busy with school stuff (Swiss school system's a bit different to the UK one...), so wasn't able to upload the podcasts during the last month. However, I have them on my computer and hopefully they'll be uploaded by tonight.

    Hi I am new to this and can't work out how to make my own message/post so this is why I'm posting here...I can't find any podcasts after 28th October and I really want to listen to the 10th November podcast as my 'Dear Scott' letter was read out by the pr4l!! Can anyone help me? Thanks x

    Hi biscuits! The 10th was a Thursday, right? Then, your letter will be in the podcast of the 11th, as R1 are always behind one day. I don't have a podcast from 10th - I guess there wasn't any, because on the 9th November Sara Cox was sitting in for Scott. If there was, I should have it, because I have all the others from that week. Have a look at the one from 11th, in that one they're reading out emails.

    I'm a new listener to the show (last couple of months) - it'll take ages to d/l all the podcasts seperately from the archive, is there anywhere I can download a batch of them (say a zipped folder containing all podcasts from 2006 for example)? Cheers

    As far as I know, there isn't any. During Christmas holidays, I will have a look at it and try to find a possibility to create and upload something like a zip-folder of all the podcasts for you. Okay?

  3. You now also have to register to message the studio, which will probably put many people off. It's a shame they don't advertise the email addresses anymore, or the text number on the main page.

    If they don't change the addresses and the number, people will still know it. The biiiiiig radio fans have the contact information on their mobile phone anyway.

  4. You say highly religious like thats a good thing? :confused:

    It depends on how you look at it. I hate people who try to get every single non-Christian person to become Christian, but I love people who are religious and know how to behave. I mean, people who talk about religious stuff, but not constantly.

  5. Hi everyone searching for the newest downloads!

    Just thought I'd let you know in case you're wondering where all the recent podcasts are... I'm on holidays at the moment, so can't upload the podcasts to the site right now. However, I've downloaded all of them and I'll be updating everything when I get back home. Be looking forward to it! ;)

  6. Ugh don't get me started on the shopping... and I don't even have much to do (although that's probably a worse thing than it sounds).

    I rarely do Christmas shopping. I always give stuff that I made by myself to my parents and good friends, that's far easier, doesn't need much thinking and it's easily done in a few hours. Also, I don't have to use a whole day to get the shopping done.

  7. Exactly. The best way is "always think twice before posting anything". I also have more than one email address because I don't want to mix up Facebook/Twitter with school/work stuff.

    .....I'm not saying I'm not writing about school on Facebook! It's just that I don't want teachers or future employers to find my profile easily (they'll find it anyway, but as I'm not always nice, I can make it a bit difficult for them... :D).

  8. There are other good 'uns on the list, but you only asked for 4, and I think I've given you more, Hope this helps. Enjoy reading.:)

    Thank you for your really loooong post! It helped a lot. It's much better information than I got from our teacher. I would probably have chosen boring or too difficult books... Thanks :)

  9. We had to study Of Mice and Men at school in English last year; it's quite a good story. It's got a lot to do with the relationships between the different characters, power and the attitudes of the time towards women. It's all very interesting.
    Wow, I did Of Mice And Men some... what, 13 years ago now. Enjoyed going more indepth into that one and there is also a rather good movie version with John Malkovich and Gary Sinise that we watched in class at the time.

    We had a short discussion about it at school, but didn't go any further. That's why it's on the list, we haven't read it properly.

  10. Or you could set the books ablaze, make an early bonfire - write about that..... - I actually find this list instantly frightening - how dare they issue that length of a list.

    Not sure if my English teacher would like that... :D

    I'm actually quite happy that the list is so long. As I don't know the majority of all the books, I don't really mind the length. Plus, I get a bigger variety of books to choose from...

    Good luck, franzi, btw. Forgot to say that earlier. #mondays

    Thanks :)

  11. Thank you so much everyone! Also, thanks a lot for replying so quickly! You're the best :) xx

    As the whole selection is on a first come - first serve basis, I think I now stand a good chance to get the books I chose.

    I'll probably go with:

    - Breakfast at Tiffany's

    - To Kill a Mockingbird (also recommended by my parents btw... :D)

    - Life of Pi

    - Of Mice and Men

    Thanks again for your help and for all your work writing these posts! ;)

  12. I have also stuck with Hotmail but only because I'm too lazy to delete it. I don't use it for emails and I'm never online with the messenger. I've also got fb for about 3 years now I think but it's gone all rubbish. Twitter has hooked me only a year ago and even if it is sometimes a bit impersonal, I quite like it, as it is simple to use and easy to find stuff when you're looking for something.
