I feel really refreshed today. Spent money on clothes, had a jacket potato in the city, went to Starbucks and watched people pass by with a white café mocha, and got a taxi home. Because I wasn't waiting an hour for the next bus.

Haha nice!

I got a great book with my book voucher today - Where's Bin Laden. A book done in the style of Where's Wally.

I've been doing a bit of retail therapy today, so been busy busy.

they didn't happen to have a copy of where's the dumb hamster gone did they?

I find I'm better off staying away from the forum, every time I go away it seems to be busy. Which is how I'd like it to be. :)

Yeah but Helen, Heather and I have had to tell people off on your behalf! They are also way off topic. Anyway - not my prob, good to see new people.

I'd never try stuff on in a shop with no undies!

Was going to make a thread on this later, but how pretty is Princess Eugenie now? She looks stunning, and she's supposedly a Radio 1 listener. She might listen to Scott or even visit here ;)

Sure she's been photoshopped, but I don't think they could have done it *that* much.

Reminds me of people who walk around towns bare feet. Not quite the same but very strange how they make this feel good about themselves.

Agreed. I dont see why folk would want to try stuff on without undies. Its disgusting.

What is Chappers insinuating. What do they do when it's all hanging out in these changing rooms?

There's an option that gets rid of adult channels on Sky. I did that, I don't want to embarrassingly end up falling on that when folks are in the room. Mum presses too many buttons, she'll probably order a porno. Lord knows what channel she ends up on.

That music idea would be great for Kerry Katona's show.

I walk around bare feet everywhere at home. Not in town as ewww. But up to the shop in our village and stuff

I do too on the beach and the promenade, and in the park sometimes.

It'd be ideal for at home when you have a remote. Nice idea for the car, but probably quite dangerous. Imagine a map in one hand, moaning girlfriend, and you trying to turn the radio up.

It clearly works, as you don't get numpties chatting to you at music gigs as you have to walk outside.

I imagine that's typically The One That Doesn't Speak's household all the time.

Speaking of asking for directions, you could do that too in the car. If you don't know where some where is, keep turning up until they disappear.

"moaning"? g'morning

I'd like the Oscar Music on my phone at work for hinting to annoying callers that they should go now.

It is typically the music you'd get at call centres when you make a complaint. Oscars learnt from them.

    • The Summer on Radio 1 thing makes me wonder whether they might be doing something similar to last year again where they have a temporary schedule over the summer before introducing changes in September - maybe the new host won’t start until after the summer?
    • There was talk on my Big Weekend group from the council about them waiting for Ticketmaster to send an email out. They said they've been waiting a week. Maybe they're waiting for train strike confirmation first. 
    • It’s on Saturday and Friday that week too. I guess this would make sense, as it gives them roughly 6 weeks off weekends until they start the new show?
    • Yeah he's on more than usual including this Sunday and then 3 more shows in May according to the above. Makes me think it's James for the weekend shows also
    • For some reason there is 'Summer on Radio 1' listed on Sunday 2nd June, could this be replacing M&M until July?
    • They seem to be using James more for cover now makes me think it will be him getting weekends eitjer breakfast or 1 till 4 
    • Yep am very much Capital Breakfast now. Jordan, Chris and Sian are a great trio and it's got that feel of the old shows Jordan and Chris used to do on Radio 1. It doesn't take itself too seriously but is packed full of content and slick. With Greg he's great but 6 years in you've probably heard it all before plus frankly I can sit through the Capital Playlist a lot more easily than the Radio 1 playlist (where some of the inclusions and omissions can be quite baffling at times). Plus after things like the Oscars or Met Gala or if there's a particularly big TV show or film or popstar then Greg won't half wang on about it at times. I guess it's partly to be expected with it being a Breakfast show on a young station but it can feel very London bubble and get tired.
    • Ore Olukoga is in for Arielle on Tuesday 14th May. James Cusack is in for Danny Beard on Saturday 1st June. James Cusack is in for Nat on Sunday 2nd June.
    • I honestly never thought in a million years I’d move from Radio 1 to be a regular Capital breakfast show listener. But it’s got pretty much everything I want - 3 really genuine, entertaining mates having a laugh, playing silly games and it all sounds great. I became a big fan of Chris from his days with Scott, became a Jordan fan on Going Home, and Sian Welby is newer to me but is loads of fun too.  It’s great and I’ve shocked myself by transferring my listening at breakfast. For me Greg’s show now feels very tired and it’s time for something new. But with Jordan gone that’s unlikely to happen anytime soon. Greg’s had a great run and I’m a fan - but there’s no new ideas now. I still listen to Radio 1 at other times - but this show feels like very serious competition for Greg. 
    • They have built four new studios to increase capacity, alongside the existing six.  Bearing in mind that some of the output of R1, 1X, R2 & 6M comes from elsewhere, and Asian Network is gradually moving all output to Birmingham, this should be enough!
    • How do they manage to cater for 6Music and Radio 2 on that floor? Did they adapt it? 
    • I think we've all figured out now how much you like it @AndyK77 😂 Personally while I think it's by far the best show on the Capital schedule and better than its predecessor, it still has the shortened songs and other commercial-radio aspects that remind me why I'm a Radio 1 fan. No matter how well this has worked out for Jordan, and all credit to him for landing the job, I can't help but feel that a Jordan and Katie show on R1 breakfast would have been so much better!
    • A few weeks in and I am actually loving the show and Jordan is a nice mix of his old chaotic self and dare I say it a slick jock.
    • He must be in his element. At Eurovision and a Gold award!
    • I really like Rylan, and as much of a fun idea it would be to have Scott and Rylan together, I think Rylan is too much of a main character.  Scott needs a side-kick rather than a full on co-host I think. That’s why he and Chris worked so well, Scott steered the show, and Chris was the perfect person to have alongside him.    I don’t religiously listen to Rylan’s show, but when I do catch it, it’s perfect weekend energy. He has a very warm presenting style too, but something makes me think he and Scott together every day would be a bit too much.
