That cat picture is one of the funniest things I've seen in a while.

I can't say I've heard of people fighting over cats being fed before. I know there is a woman up the road from us who also feeds Dayve, we know this because she thought he was a stray and decided to follow him down the road 1 day to see if he went to another house before she called the RSPCA, apparently she then got talking to my mum about it in the garden and they both found it rather amusing. Neither seems to mind about it either.

they can get locked in garage's/sheds by accident, have you asked your neighbours if they can look around in theirs? you never know.
Sorry to hear this Steph, we get stressed out when ours don't come in at night. dc has a point though. Please keep us posted.

Thanks guys. Posters have gone up around the estate and we have told the surrounding farms/stables to look out for him. Hopefully he turns up.

I find dogs tend to smell a hell of a lot more than cats. Wet dog smell is disgusting.

Pet owners are nothing like Kate McCann though? most of em anyways.

Sorry, I realise I'm being factually incorrect there, she did it so she could get all the attention and make lots of money off book deals, interviews etc... not to save money on food.

*cynical of that attention-whore*

My boss is an asshole and once again I am getting fucked about by life in general. Even yesterday that prick ruined what was previously the closest thing to what might have been called a nearly-good day I've had in many many months... I don't want to carry on if this is how my life is going to be. Bollocks to it all.

Are you looking for another job?

Today, I was out in the countryside to see my pooch. It was supposed to rain, but has not.

Really odd experience with doggy. Went to feed it, and it was looking at something beside me ... the only thing is... there was nothing there. The oddest flaming experience. :-/

Plus it also went to look down the path we had come down.... I went round as well... Again, nothing there?!

And (some) peeps say dogs are unintelligent.

It's more a higher sensory awareness with dogs most of the time, I think. You hear stories about animals like dogs being quiet in an empty house, but then running to the door or perking up mere minutes before owner returns etc... or there was one about an old people's home where this animal (not sure if it was dog or cat) would go and lay down in a room next to certain people in there, and the next night they'd die (morbid I know)...

See this is what freaked me out. The thought that I may die... i was wondering if I had the "angel of death" beside me, or something. I woke up this morning to "444" followers on twitter. The "444" is a biblical thing for an angel beside you. I have been scared all day actually.

Mind u, 444 is in a positive, not a negative way. Except in China, where 444 = die, die, die.

It was DEFINITELY looking at something I could not see, and the owners weren't there. I thought, for a second, they were looking for it, but they weren't. It looked at me oddly too actually.

Proper scared me that when I passed its home a second time, it would not come for any more food, and it always does. :-( *

* maybe it had eaten DarkAngel's cat !! :hahaha:

Is it just me or does everybody have that friend who you're only friends with because you made your friends befriend her coz you felt sorry for her. Then she turns out to he stick thin, blond and way more pretty than you. Also, she's like, AMAZINGLY intelligent. Plus, she's got a really good, stable, well-off, highly religious family. And it turns out she's got loads of friends anyway. And a boyfriend who is like, perfect. And then she turns the whole class against your group of friends but your friends kinda forgive her anyway? And she kinda steals your very best friend since yr8 away from you, and makes you think that's just your fault - not hers. But then you realise she's actually quite manipulative. And then she goes on about how fat she is and how horrible her parents are, when it's obvious that she's not - because people mention how she's the 'pretty one' all the bloody time, something that's never happened to you. And she lies about everything, but no one has a go at her about it. And she USES people. Easily.

Or is it just me?

I never realised I hated her until this evening.

OMASM. Radio presenters are like fruit. Matt is my kumquat and Scott is blatantly my orange.

next time I'm running a bus off service I'm gonna screen it to 444 and send you a picture to freak you out ;)

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.

    • I hate reverse snobbery and I post this reluctantly as we shouldn't hold Jamie's background against him, but I do think many listeners will find it hard to identify with Jamie.  One of the things that made Jordan so popular was he sounded like the mate you go for a pint with who always has a great story to tell.
    • Absolutely - life would be dull if we all liked the same things  
    • Dean in for Greg on Tuesday.
    • While it maybe doesn't the power it once has (where being on the A-List was a big deal), It's a big part of the station and I felt probably deserves it's own thread. Have to be honest I haven't been hugely enamored with the playlist in recent times. Radio 1 seem quite heavily wedded to it in weekdays (at least Monday-Thursday) which can lead to the station being repetitive if you listen throughout the day. Even a station like Capital who are known for their limited playlist seem to throw in some older tracks and artists ever so often whereas if it's not Something Songs, 10 Minute Takeover or Anthems you often struggle to hear a song from before 2018. The repetitive nature has been a thing for a while though to be fair - I recall early 2021 in particular it felt like Tiesto's 'The Business' and Olivia Rodrigo's 'Drivers Licence' were played every other hour. Also certain Radio 1 favourites seem almost guaranteed a slot on the playlist even if they don't actually appear to be wildly popular with the target audience to justify it. I get it with your Dua Lipas, Calvin Harrises, Fred Agains  and Olivia Rodrigos as they're all very popular but less so if it's say Cat Burns, Aitch, Royal Blood or Mabel. Which is fine to an extent as Radio 1 has often focussed on promoting new music but then you have great music by other new artists that just never makes it to the playlist as a result.
    • 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.
