What sucks in your life?

Paranoid about my bike being stolen now after hearing about some stuff. I have two fairly good locks that I use but my bike is quite appealing to thieves, I'd say; it isn't cheap. I don't know why I'm worrying, the only places I go to and lock up is the pool and the library (but even then very rarely, I usually go out for a ride at the weekend). We have a lot of seat bandits where I live :(

I think a lot of people take their saddle with them, judging by the number of bikes without them in town.

I got two different types of lock, because thieves are less likely to be equipped to break both, so I thought I'd be okay, but then someone stole my dustcaps. What's the point of that?! All bikes already have them!

I also know someone who had their garage broken into and had their £500 bike stolen. They found bolt cutters around the corner.

Gah, stupid thieves. :x

Ohai.

I swear they mostly just do it out of spite rather than there being a need. I know a lot of bikes have a high resale value but stealing a £5 seat is just stupid.

i just can't get stuff off my mind, from when i wake up untill i go to sleep. been down and out since the start of december now, and i'm getting pretty tired of walking around with a false smile to keep everyone else happy. i've got a weekend away with friends coming up soon though, so hopefully that'll take my mind off things for a while.

on the grid.

I would HATE to do shifts. I swear I wouldn't even be able to speak!!

My cousin was down fixing the ceiling in our house. Whilst he was in, he noticed the ceiling is actually sinking.... so he thinks the wood underneath the bath may be rotting.

So while I have been gleefully having baths, the bath and I may have gone crashing down to a neighbours. Now, I've had to report this as a matter of urgency - so there will be a guy coming to assess the situation on Monday!!

My cold is really beginning to annoy me. My poor sore throat ... I have been up half the night spluttering all over the place, at the same time as getting a torrent of abuse off of angry Mills' fans - just because I didn't like something Mills said on the Show yesterday.

Get a grip, eh. God, the Internet world is one of insanity. At least I got 100+ new followers though.

Every cloud, every cloud.... let's sing it loud... o every cloud.

I applied for a new job ages back, finally got through the interview stage and driving assessments and a month ago I was told they would be contacting my referees. Phoned up today cos I've not heard from them since then only to be told neither referance has been sent back to them yet :(

Only slight consolation is I was told it won't affect my application at the moment cos I would be a couple months away from getting a start date anyway

Not impressed with censorship

    • Yep I really struggled with Matt & Jamie which was a shame as otherwise really like Matt. Unfortunately it comes across on-air whether it's actually try or not that Jamie doesn't know a lot about radio and doesn't seem particularly desperate to improve either or if I'm being generous he's playing an act - neither of which particularly appeals. The everyman act can sometimes work but you need to have that natural likability and appeal for it to do so in the way that way Chris Stark did. I mean even towards the end of his stint with Matt Jamie was struggling with getting the Whatsapp number right which is a basic.
    • Have to say even if there is a good reason for Jamie to be off on Thursdays the optics of them a month in still not be able to do a 'normal week' of the scheduled team for a brand new show isn't great. And if Jamie was meant to be away on Thursdays clearly nobody let whoever runs BBC Sounds know. Who would've guessed from the Vick & Jordan days though that it would be Vick who's the everpresent so far (just kidding Vick - really rate her as a DJ and I know she has a lot of other engagements outside of Radio 1).
    • Sorry explain what you mean there please? Danny is unlistenable?? 
    • I dunno if it is me but even Vick and Katie don't sound as good in that slot alone as they did before. Maybe I have just fallen out of love with it all.
    • Agree with most of this above. Listening to only vick and katie today, I was thinking that it doesn't need Jamie. Its very jarring how sometimes he's there and sometimes he isn't. I don't think it needs to be a trio. Surely there are bigger problems at the moment, Danny on a pretty big slot on the station is literally unlistenable.
    • Yes, the length of the time on the station does help as with Annie Mac she did what dance specialist DJs kind of get a bit more favourability with the evening listeners who start out on something specialist. With Annie Mac she did years on dance before going to the flagship new music specialist programme with giving opportunities to new DJs and curating the playlist and having something different from Clara’s more music daytime show where she had to work with the playlist. Had she done more time doing a specialist show later on in the schedule it may have oddly made the moment bigger. Think sometimes what has helped create such a unique sound in presenters and personalities like Annie Mac, Jack and Grimmy for example starting out doing a late show with looser format. Think for the next Jack, Annie and Clara’s of the station do need to have a late live slot and do hope when radio 1 relax is shut down that maybe they change the power down playlist for something with bit more freedom.
    • She is a good broadcaster no doubts but am of the same page with feelings mutual.
    • Clara was always a decent, competent and even good music radio presenter. But equally, she never provoked really strong emotions in me that I must listen or must switch off.
    • Jamie is definitely very divisive though.  Some people's "radio comedy gold" is other people's "unlistenable".  I have liked Matt and Mollie, Matt on his own, Mollie and Jordan etc etc.  But couldn't listen to Matt with Jamie. No hate on Jamie but I just don't like his sense of humour.
    • The dynamics of this are interesting.  Jordan works best with people he knows and he already knows Chris and Sian so from day one it should sound fairly natural.  
    • Have an amazing birthday Scott!  Looking forward to Tuesday! 
    • This has to be a joke right. This is so Scott Mills 🤣
    • Greg's shoe live and Jordan on catchup so can skip ads
