Hiya, I'm currently homeworking! You okay?

Yeah, I'm fine thanks. We had a maths test today (we're having tests in all subjects two times a year, next year it'll be four times a year) and it went a lot better than expected.

Normally I'm really good at maths but not at the subject we're doing at the moment.

I would have had two lessons today too, but I didn't have to go to school 'cause of the strike :D It was great.

It's a person who pretends to have skills or knowledge that they don't have.

Cheers Emma.:) I actually did mean it then. What with Jono's ambition for a future in media, I think he maybe should've seen a few more important, seminal films...

Our 6th Form wasn't striking

Haha it's okay. I didn't see the previous post so I didn't know what was going on, I just saw the word. I'm like a dictionary :)

Well hello there...

I'm not staying on long tonight, got guitar rehearsal at 5. Thought I'd pop in and say hi.

Blood knackered. Had to rush out in the middle of the night to help a severely wasted friend. Got back home at about 2am. Not good. Really could have used that strike today...

Wahay! Seeing John Barrowman as Robin Hood for the panto this year (yes, I know it's only April). He was amazing in Aladdin.

Anyway... I've got to head off now.

It's always good to have a day off, but I wish I'd missed something less important. I missed double Maths which means that I now have to do lots of work at home. I might actually go and do it now, seeing as I still have looooots of History work left.

No brass :o

Where is this panto? I'm there!

Like The Bill version of silly ticket rules very much. Seeing as they have to read all this rubbish out they might as well have fun with it. Nice one DI Chopper.

    • 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.
    • 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.
