Another big row with "orange" mobile company. My 'phone won't switch on sometimes, the sound records for approx. 3 seconds, the 'phone won't play a youtube video - so I went back to the shop, only to be told if I had bought a car, I would NOT return to the car dealer?! Er... I pay £15.00 per month for internet access, so I need to ask someone. Big row started and a crowd had gathered. :evil:

Went to Vodaphone, and they can do me internet for £5.00/month less... am looking into an ASHA 201 (white).

Oh god, you and your solar-powered ladies. LOL - I can never see any improvement in guys in my area.

I've spoken to a few guys about it and its definitly a noticeable thing where the women are concerned, although I would imagine you probably look more towards the guys so might not necessarily take much notice of the breasted types.

Sadly though we've gotta take the rough with the smooth, for every solar powered woman out and about in the summer there are many troads, golden deceivers and such like. I'll never forget one woman I saw one day when I was working, 5ft 3/4ish, really slim, tight purple coat, skinny jeans and knee high boots on. As I approached I was thinking ooooh hello, only for her to turn round and probably be old enough to be my mum. I felt violated lol.

Not impressed with censorship

Looks like I am finally going for my IT training from next week !!! Still to be confirmed (dates, times, etc.) Hopefully will learn things to benefit me !!

I have also been notified about a potential job interview. Closer to home, so less in travel expenses. Still have to research far more into it however.

Strange, I've been thinking about this site today. I remember the predecessor to this thread was called 'How Was Your Day' years and years ago.

I can't sleep so I've repaired my old PC tower and wired it up, got onto an old external hard drive too with loads of old Scott Mills shows I recorded for the site between 2005-2007.

Strange hearing some of the old tracks that was on the Radio 1 playlist back then, Goldie Lookin Chain - RnB, Oasis - Let There Be Love. Kanye West - Heard Em Say, and that awful 'Stick Wit U' track by the Pussycat Dolls has cropped up in some of the shows.

It's hard to believe it's been that long ago, digging up the old 'Your Views' threads too. Good to hear Chappers & Laura on some of these.

on the grid.

Oh DC, please please PLEASE find a way of getting all of them online somewhere. That amazing collection can't go unshared. Even if it involves going to an internet café (whooooooo) where the upload speeds are better. We need all of that classic (ish) Mills.

    • I would rather do the new music show than the breakfast show early starts, being cheery and entertaining isn’t my vibe and being hip and on trend. With new music it’s a different kettle of fish that could get my teeth into and enjoy researching and planning of the show and coming up with ideas and making my mark in away that I don’t think I have the ideas for a breakfast. I don’t see how it could be alienating but I enjoy the niche and speciality of expertise that new music shows gives it’s good spot of giving you the headlines and setting the agenda of mainstream music.
    • Absolutely, Jack is such an incredible broadcaster already, incredibly entertaining with such brilliant music knowledge and his excitement is contagious, I've never really listened to New Music Shows like Future Sounds but I'm instantly invested in new music due to his show, as I'm sure many others are too.  yes the effects are a little strange but after listening back they're strangely charming when you get used to them. 
    • Jack has smashed it He was born for this show, he said he’d been dreaming of it and you could tell. Such passion and energy as always with Jack but in a show that can grab people’s attention and drag them down the rabbit hole of new music if you had a keen interest in discovering new music but haven’t in a while, new music shows can be alienating with no familiarity until you ‘get into it’ - the new show has ensured you can ease into to get back into sync . i love the Zane influences - he will be the forefront of where every emerging and returning artist wants to be with this show . Very excited for this chapter
    • Oh I though they were nbh studios   
    • Yes, I feel that unless it’s for a special sessions with a large ensemble band that for live sessions going out live on the radio. Never saw why they haven’t used the live lounge studio and feel that room could be used more.  
    • Interesting now Zane has for apple interviewed anything from an artists that have charted and doing less interviews with new and emerging talents chatting to Shakira, Usher, Kelly Clarkson and Shania Twain. Yes, that is a positive thing about Jack Saunders. Although I don’t mind it from time to time for a presenter to be honest and spill an unsavoury opinion about music on the station like Annie did with Fall Out Boy.
    • Interesting Jack mentioned they've got new studios at Maida Vale; you'd think, with the move to Stratford, they wouldn't bother update the studios so close to the end...
    • I assume it's meant to appeal to a TikTok generation
    • Yep Jack is very much Radio 1's modern day Zane Lowe - but with the bonus that he does feel a bit a bit more open-minded and open to chart stuff than Zane was. I could never imagine Zane being a chart host the way Jack is - I always had the sense if Zane didn't approve of your music taste he'd make you well aware of it.
    • I will still call them sessions as feel with gigs it makes you think of a live tangible means of going to listen to a band play music and not virtually tuning in via the medium of radio.
    • He does what the show needs regardless of how annoying some people may find his presentation style is like. I feel and very much do hope he is in for the long haul and could atleast do four years where his energy may into be as always as bouncy. But he has the knowledge, passion and interaction and not so overbearing but very much so sense of confidence that you need. I think he could easily have a good Zane Lowe like era. Just hope that they consider doing a new late night live music show as I do miss that something of what he had in the early days of the indie show and when Huw Stephens was on live at the after ten slot
    • Speaking of the sessions, they've been renamed Live Gigs for any forum members not listening to the show & reading this later
    • I’ve found the jingles are annoying and going to grate on the listener quickly. It’s a good opening week with big name hottest records and sessions
    • With the effects I'm half expecting a massive whoooooo soon
