Going to a workshop at the Royal Institute for ​British Architecture next week and just found out it just a few doors away from Radio 1. We're allowed to do what we want once the workshop is over so Im hoping I'll be allowed to potter off down there and see if I can meet Mr Mills and the team! Would die if I got to meet Chris Stark.

And I won't sit down,

And I won't shut up,

But most of all I will not grow up <3

My bike needs a whole load of repairs and replacement before I can start riding again. New tyres, chain, cassette, and pedals. Looking to get some road bike-esque slicks for the road (it's an MTB).

I get my assisitive technologies next week. That sounds dull but one of the pieces is a brand new 27" iMac. But more importantly is the software on it, plus the other tech to help me in lectures and stuff. I may get a 2/1 yet xD

Learned from radio two today that neither straight nor gay people are 100 percent so. apparently, even if you think you are one hundred percent gay, given a certain set of circumstances, you would still consider the opposite sex.

That's true in approximately 74% of the population, the other 26% are unwaivable

Knew all that knowledge I consumed when I was an LGBT officer would pay off one day xD

I have now officially been to Radio 1! Was a rather splendid moment in my life. Didnt meet anyone as it was packed full of Jessie J fans and Paps waiting for her. http://instagram.com/p/QFs5wqK5vJ/ did get a photo of the #teamgrimmy sign though and afterwards we found a Nando's just down the road so went for some delicious lunch! Going again in October though so hopefully I'll meet some of the DJ's (hopefully Scott, Beccy and Chris) then :)

And I won't sit down,

Red dwarf is back tonight, AND, I took a small victory over a cold call from a personal injury solicitor type company.

Now normally I wouldn't condone giving someone abuse when going about their job, as I have have been on the receiving end of it when just trying to do my job so I know its not nice. HOWEVER, when it comes to injury solicitors or PPI claimback companies my opinion goes completely out the window. Long story short I told someone this evening that if they didn't want me to "tear through" them they should hang up the phone immediately, and when told they would remove my records from their database I was in the middle of telling him that I suggested he did he hung up. I'm taking that as a win for me!

Not impressed with censorship

    • Dean McCullough in for Greg w/c 4th August. James Cusack on EB.
    • Well looks like Mollie is off all month now so presumably a personal matter. 
    • Intrigued why Matt & Mollie aren't presenting breakfast on Monday, with James in for them instead (which has happened before).. or even James given a chance to present the breakfast show?
    • Sam & Danni seem to be down for Breakfast on Monday. James Cusack on Going Home. That’s another new name in the list of “people who have hosted Going Home in 2025”.
    • Wednesday, surely? But this is another mess, as this weeks Summer press release said it’ll be Sam & Danni no Jamie from the 28th - so it’s actually a whole week earlier!
    • Jamie Laing’s last show before his summer break will be on Wednesday 16th July.
    • I worked out once Scott spent 3 months of a year off his own slot in the Moyles days and more like 4 in Grimmys days, six weeks of his own holiday and projects, six covering Grimmy plus some ad hoc days 
    • Back on topic, I think there's quite a few of the current Radio 1 presenters who would be able to adapt to Radio 2's style in the future. It's more of question of how many of them will actually end up there. With much of R2's line up changed over the past couple of years, it's quite possible we won't see much movement there, and R2 management might even decide to look elsewhere to bring in new presenters in future.
    • With OJ covering on bank holidays. She is the best person for the job however... they're going to end up with a situation like Scott covering R1 breakfast back in the day, where she spends quite a bit of time off her own slot covering Breakfast, plus her own holiday and other commitments. She's been filming for something recently which has meant she's been off several days a week since May. She was off last week, on breakfast this week, OJ is on Mon/Tues next week, then She's off the following two weeks.
    • Looking back at this I would say now that Sara is the main cover - I think she has been reestablished as it now 
    • Purley on the R1 Dance station.. Someone on DS said don't expect to see any changes to the schedule on the new stations however if they are taking on Capital Dance with this, which they clearly are, which has live presenters 7am - 10pm except for the 11am mix then they'll surely have to have a proper scheduled set of shows. At the moment Arielle is the only "live" per say show and only "live" a few days a week with earlier shows being repeated Thursday Friday and Saturday. Connor and Charlie are clearly pre records but was this only for the time it was online only and they have already got a schedule ready to go on day 1? also of note is that Charlie is taking over a podcast as well as starting a new project with podcasting which makes me wonder if she is about to step back from Dance Anthems all together to concentrate on those and Connor takes over? So you could have Arielle doing 9-12 weekdays live then someone else 12-3 and Connor live 3-6 on R1D and doing Dance Anthems on a Saturday. 
    • As none of the Going Home Team aren't currently on the air, that's a bit if an issue. Considering most of the Dance DJs will be out there, I'm surprised none of them are being utilised to host the 1-4 slot that weekend.
    • Going Home presenters have done the last few years ?
    • Nat and Vicky are being sent to Ibiza this year. They’ll be live on Friday 1st August from 1-4pm.     
    • Since Radio 1 Dance and Anthems have been allowed to broadcast on DAB, do we think they’ll be a proper schedule of shows like on Radio 1 Dance with the morning show and Dance Anthems at drive time. Maybe Lauren Redfern, Tyler Selby, Chrissy Cameron or Matt Hallsworth will be scheduled on named shows like Hits Radio 00s or Capital Anthems rather than the generic ‘Radio 1 Anthems’ show. Obviously it would probably cost more to produce actual shows on the station however.
