I passed on college today, and invited callum down to the near by town to look like I was going to college. Instead I got some chips, an ice cream and stayed by the beach. The sea was clear, and lovely... and I've even become Derren Brown.

I gave the thick kid at the chippy a pound coin but originally was going to give him a £2 coin. The chips were £1 and I ended up with £1 change. A nice free packet of chips. Score

Any summery tales to tell?

Get you Jono, bunking off :-p do your parents or teachers ever come on the site though?

Free food is always good, it's happened to me a few times, getting back more change than you gave. I got about £20 worth of free stuff from WHSmith last year, because their till crashed in the middle of my debit card transaction and after a few phonecalls they told me it hadn't debited the money so they did it again. Wasted about 20 minutes of my time. Anyway, when I got my bank statement, they'd debited the money, then credited it to me as well. I didn't bother telling them, and enjoyed my free goods, because I don't like WHSmith and it's their damn fault.

Well today I sat in my garden and enjoyed the sunshine and now I'm drinking ice cold water and reading 'Love it!' some real-life magazine my sister likes, because it kills time. Soon I'll go out but it'll be bley boiling outside.

Ah, my mum can use a PC, my dad can't really.

The hot weather is making me really tired and lazy. I couldn't be bothered to look for my phone, or go downstairs and get the landline to call it, so I got one of my friends on MSN (who is incidentally in Norwich right now, so I can't see him) to phone it for me... haven't seen my mp3 player in a couple of days though and I can't phone it :-?

Eek that's a bit strange. Haven't seen any fires round here...

JK and Joel were talking about the same effect Scott noticed, all the fit girls coming out when it's sunny apparently.

I'm just on my way out, looking for fit guys... no actually I have a cheque to pay in before the bank closes.

Apparently it's 30C here right now, according to the BBC, but it was 33C a couple of hours ago. I need to go to the gym or something but it's just too hot...

I bought an Evening Standard. Headline: 52degrees on buses, 47degrees on tube. Apparently that's temperature combined with humidity. The main photo is lots of business men with their jackets off, ties off and top buttons undone. So you're right Jono, not a day for suits. On page 3 is a photo of "a young woman cools down in the Serpentine" - wearing only a thong :-| typical hot day photo. Glad I'm not on public transport today though. My dad's taken the week off work, I bet he's glad he did.

Having a bit of fan trouble Ema? Like Scott...

I have the world's tiniest desk fan here and it doesn't really have much impact. But I've got a bottle of frozen water here which is cooling me down.

Hehe - I climbed the wrong one for starters and didn't realise till I was at the top and even then I questioned it. I then tried to come downa sheer cliff face and it was pretty much impossible, except I had to. I am now covered in scratches, bites and sun burn. I need someone to look after me haha.

The thing is I managed to climb the bley thing in 1 hour 15 minutes which I was so pleased about so that is why I thought I would have a crack at going down the death side. I think if someone made the million worst ways to come down that hill - mine would have topped it :D

      I must have missed that yesterday, sorry! Scott did make the same tongue in cheek comment on today's show about Rylan. It's a shame Rylan isn't the go to cover for Scott, I assume his commitments away from R2 prevent that. I enjoyed his last cover stint. Spoony is the go to stand in for the mid afternoon slot (he's covering again week after next while Scott's off getting married).   In that case, I think you're right!

      Not that last minute. Scott was talking about it on his own show yesterday, saying he and Rylan have a deal where they cover each other's shows but Rylan only covers Scott when he can be bothered!

      Sorry I should have been clearer, I meant daytime weekday. Weekend shows would count as a 'step up' from overnights for OJ.

      If we're counting the overnight slot, OJ Borg regularly covers weekend shows.

      The only weekday R2 DJ who would ever cover a weekend slot?!

      What I assume is a very last minute change... Scott Mills is in for Rylan today.

      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.

      Going Home with Vick, Katie and Jamie

      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.
