So what's your average day at the moment?

For the next two weeks mine is:

Scott Mills with breakfast in bed, shower at ten, cup of tea and then reviewing at 10.30 and then walking the dog and then something entertaining.

Woo :lol:

I don't know why I bother answering the phone - one person rung asking for someone who doesn't live here, a person delivering a carpet we didn't ask for, a windows company and a computerised holiday thing.

Now a work friend of mum just rang and slammed the phone down.

I just rang her back and slammed it down on her, so ha to her.

Looks like I'm the early riser of the board then (g'mornin) :lol:

Wake up around 6.10 to the lovely voice of Nemone, listen until she plays the last of the threesome, get in the shower, get out hopefully in time to hear the answer to the threesome. That takes me up to about 6.35-6.40, then i have until I leave the house at 7.10 to get dressed for work and do any last minute scrabbling for things I might need that day. All this while listening to Mills/Moyles. Sometimes I have little so have a quick look on the net.

7.10 head for the bus stop with phone radio on and earphone/aeriel in, to catch the (supposed) 7.15 bus and talk for a few minutes to the fit-but-unavailable girl who catches the same bus and works somewhere in the Lace Market in Notts. 7.15 til around 8.10 on the bus to Nottingham city centre and work, usually listening to the radio and semi-perving on any fit women that get on the bus, while thinking about the one I want the most that lives near mansfield and laughing at the radio (usually). Sometimes my bus passes one of my lovely ladyfriends as she walks to work from Radford.

8.10 til around 8.30 a slow walk to work from the bus stop in City Centre.

8.30-5PM is work time with an hour for lunch (usually 12.30-1.30) and somewhere between 9 and 10 I go to the college canteen and get some breakfast, bringing it back to the office and eating it at my desk.

Then I leave work at 5, and it's the bus journey home, which gets me there 6-6.10 whether I catch the 5.15 or the 5.36 bus... sometimes popping in to see friend mentioned earlier seen walking to work, at work.

Get home, have a quick look in papers for a better job and/or a flat/houseshare so I can get outta crappy Ilkeston, the town I hate.

Simpsons and Hollyoaks :D:P .

Then it depends on how knackered I am, sometimes ill just vegetate at my comp and make the odd post on the forums im on (i gotta admit, i'm knackered a lot lately since I started latest job:() and general net surfing and msn chat, sometimes Ill go play snooker, see a film, or just go for a general boozeup, or the odd local gig, esp if one of my musically talented friends is involved.

Fall asleep 12-1, probably watching crap tv or listening to some talk radio (helps me fall asleep)....

yeah not enough hours in the day etc.... I wish i had the inability to sleep like the irish girl I work with, she's insomniac and just sits up reading or doing stuff people would normally do in the day some nights.

Either that or I need a proplus drip, but that stuff stopped working for me when I stopped working in a nightclub til 4am :(

    • Radio 1 at Parklife will be presented by Vicky and Nat. Nat is currently listed to present her usual Sunday show on that weekend but I imagine that will change and someone else will be doing it instead. The Radio 1 presenters at Download will be Daniel P Carter, Jack Saunders, Alyx Holcombe and Nels Hylton.
    • Nat in for Dean with Vicky as well that day.
    • So the end of weekend afternoons this week - new show is July 1st.
    • Arielle is in for Greg on Monday 27th May.
    • He’s definitely gotten better and the show has sounded fine this week. I think it been at its best when it’s been Katie and Jamie or Vick and Katie. Vick and Jamie are ok together, but I do think the show sounds better when it’s Vick and Katie and therefore I still don’t really understand the point of the trio.    Jamie is, however, a lot better than Danny Beard! 
    • The RAJAR coming on later this year reflecting later summer to autumn will be interesting to how it reflects Matt and Mollie in afternoons to the revised changes on radio 1’s new music slots and the schedule re-shuffling Radio 3 introducing a new slate of programmes. Then, later on this year have speech radio stations having domestic political coverage of the election but also America’s presidential election.  
    • I actually caught snippets of today’s show, and I found it much better than the last time I listened. I have made it no secret that I like Jamie on the radio, I was surprised by how much I enjoyed Matt & him together last year. People have criticised him for not being relatable, but I have to agree with the comment above that I have always found him a naturally warm person to listen to. Maybe the going home set up was something that needed settling in and things are starting to take shape.  It must have been difficult for him joining an established duo in Vick & Katie to begin with.  Jamie was great on something songs today, fully engaged in the caller and sounded like a real presenter. Maybe he is doing as a lot of us hoped and really learning as he goes, how to do it properly. 
    • Agree with this. The anti-Jamie feeling was IMO quite influenced by the negativity around him replacing Jordan, since Jordan was exceptional and also universally loved. When people mention Danny and Jamie in the same sentence about bad hiring decisions I almost choke - Jamie may not be perfect but he's several leagues better than Danny already and has bags of potential. Danny is poor and has shown zero potential...
    • Jamie started 4 March, and the figures only going up to 31 March, so it isn't reliable. But it has shown the numbers have dropped in afternoons compared to last quarter. It looks like it's Capital's gain.
    • Do these audience figures reflect Jordan leaving and Jamie replacing him?
    • I think Jamie is really starting to settle into the role well. He comes across as really warm, and genuinely invested in the listeners when he’s talking to them which is nice. I think he’s building a really great relationship with Vicki and Katie too. His recent great company podcast is great too, where he has quite a deep chat with someone new each week. He’s clearly a very genuine person and I think he has some real potential.
    • Most probably. But do wonder what the future of the relax themed programmes will be when they officially wind down that service.
    • I think it's just to replace Wind Down presents... which was in that timeslot, and I'm guessing Chillout Anthems was just a buffer since it'll still be played at 06:00 on Sundays.
    • With listening on the U.K. for the industry in general it is good overall as most stations reach is on the up and shows radio to be more sustainable and stable outlet than linear televisions channels. This RAJAR I think with the increase shift to DAB+ the BBC will be able to say it has it’s audiences for the proposed new stations it wishes to launch and think the new innovative ideas that it seems Jack himself can take credit for on the new music show think the younger under 30 gen z demographic could increase se in that time-slot. 
    • Conor Knight is in for Sam & Danni on Saturday 8th & Sunday 9th June. It's Radio 1 at Parklife, 13.00-16.00 on Saturday 8th & Sunday 9th June. Matt & Mollie are in for Greg from Monday 10th to Friday 14th June - it's just Matt on the Thursday. It's Radio 1 at Download, 13.00-16.00 on Friday 14th June.
