Looks like officialfearnecotton or at least a certain page on it has been overloaded due to Fearne tweeting out about her and Jesse having 'some lovely news'... It won't load so can't tell if it's engagement or a sprog on the way, but unlikely to be anything else.

EDIT: have deduced from replies such as "Massive Congratulations... You will make a Fantastic Mummy.xx" and "Congratulations! Enjoy Keith Lemon's baby present!" that it's an enga... no wait, a Sprog.

That's the thing about bloody mobiles. You can only do so much. I can't create topics from my mobile (although I think I should?!).

Anyhow, Jeremy Vine is discussing tractors on his show today after noon. Getting quite excited about it, as I was almost run over by one yesterday afternoon.

Well I'm going to Leeds Metropolitan in just over three weeks. That rocks enough, although I've known about that for ages now and already celebrated it (see above)

what actually rocks today is that one of my friends from College got the grades he needed and so he's going to the Met too. Happy days.

Yeah, the ones who do try hard are the people the incompetent t***s at the Jobcentre usually target for more thorough checking... at least in my experience, while other 'career dole dossers' walk in, actually say "Yeah I've done nothing this week, gimme my money" and GET IT. I've watched that happen and my complaint that they weren't cut etc was ignored. Less paperwork if they 'dont catch' people, which is bloody wrong. Plenty of those out there who try hard but they often get screwed over because of the lazy f***wits that also exist.

Have to agree. There are so many flaws. I have often thought a job centre should have "technology days" where they teach people skills they are missing out on through being out of the workplace, and being out of touch, then they are expected to step right back in there with no training, or anything.

My mate, who has also to do scanning of documents, finds he does not know how to scan, so someone is having to show him this. Unemployed too long = out of touch.

I got 7 A's 2 B's and 2 C's in my GCSE's. Was gutted with one of the C's as it was in a subject I want to do for A level but the school are gonna see what they can do and I might be able to take it anyway :D

And I won't sit down,

And I won't shut up,

But most of all I will not grow up <3

Have to agree. It is fascinating the amount of peeps that go round + round the system for years. Of course, they get the rest a bad name.

If you ARE genuinely applying for things, you shouldn't be hassled, yet the more conscentious people DO get all the hassle.

Heard a suggestion about reducing benefits. However, I should think that would only make some people commit more crimes to work out the difference. Ya know. Such a mess.

and based on Hooligan's Island, probably the best Live Show. Rik and Ade have been tweeting about this for about 2 weeks now, stuff along the lines of "Writing today with this bastard" (from Ade, with a photo of Rik).

Also, new The Thick Of It starting soon.

    • Less so with 5 Live. But with Nihal, Nicky Campbell and Mark Chapman get what you are saying.6 Music does have that with Huw Stephens, Mary Anne Hobbs, Gilles Peterson, Marc Riley and Mark Radcliffe
    • Agreed, Martha seems to quietly taken over as host of the Tuesday Bass and Big Beats show that Annie Nightingale did would be good to have some promotion to be done for her show. Agreed with this on bank holidays on a Radio 1 dance day inpaticular would be quite good to have Sarah Storey, Jaguar, Jeremiah Asiamah, Charlie Tee and Martha presenting. I always felt that in Christmas and New Year previously having Victoria Jane to do a Future Soul take over playlist.
    • To be fair to him, this week and next week he’s on his podcast tour which was arranged well before he started on R1. After that I would guess he’ll start being on everyday? 
    • It’s Jamie’s dream of a lifetime to be a full time Radio 1 presenter apparently, but he can only do it 2 or 3 days a week. 
    • Radio 1 generation meaning??  Today's 10-30 yr-olds? I doubt it. They'll still know Pete Tong though, because he is rhyming slang!
    • There was a time when everyone knew Zane Lowe or Annie Mac or Judge Jules or Dave Pearce or Annie Nightingale. Does the Radio 1 generation know the current bunch?
    • Looks like it's off to Preston! 
    • Would be nice to give more presence to the specialist shows over bank holidays. Surely the best way to promote new music credentials over anthems? As much as I accept it's very popular.
    • Peak radio 1 ! I agree with Bluestraw there was huge presence by specialist presenters then , certainly something I think radio1 could do more of now. Remember the takeover where specialist DJs would swap into main shows for a week? Or do we recall In New DJs We Trust, the competition on Chris moyles show where the winner would get a DJ set at radio 1s Ibiza weekend, and that is how Danny Howard’s radio career starters
    • Yeah. He started on R1 in the late 90's when they used do the 'Sessions in the Nations' where they used to split for Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland. He then moved to daytimes, firstly on weekends in 2003 then they replaced Mark & Lard on the mid afternoon slot in 2004.  Then he moved to late evenings as a specialist DJ.
    • Thanks for sharing that - I don't think I've seen it before. Didn't realise that Colin Murray off of Countdown and R5L used to be on R1! Several other current R2/R5L/R6M names there too.
    • 29th April has updated to show Dan back as presenter but still Nels in for Alyx on Introducing Rock. 6th May schedule has updated to show that the Radio 1 Big Weekend Shows will now be the following: 6am-10am 10am-2pm 2pm-6pm 6pm-8pm Still no presenters listed.
    • Where do we think Radio 2 in the Park will be this year? Personally I'm thinking Swindon after Scott's clue of it having many roundabouts and since Big Weekend is at Luton I can't imagine they'd go to Milton Keynes.
    • Yeah, I feel like they need a big push on Jack to cement him in his new position. But it shouldn't just be Jack, you've got Sian and Alyx for instance, who are relatively new faces.
    • Now in it's third week, the new Capital Breakfast Show seems to be settling down well and there are more of the informal, random Jordan topics appearing.  Though it is clear he wants to be seen slightly differently. It really is a very decent listen.
