I went to Kennedy Space Centre today. Got to see a lot of really amazing things including Saturn V, fuel boosters, a piece of the moon which I got to touch, the crawler that they use to transfer the shuttle to the launch pads, the storage buildings for the 3 shuttles...oh and Endeavour sitting on the launch pad due to launch a week on Saturday!!

I'm finally back in the UK for good... feels good to be back in familiar surroundings again, it's gonna take me a while to actually get used to being around people speaking English again though, haha. I now have a fair few episodes of Flight Of The Conchords and That Mitchell and Webb Look to get through that my parents have very kindly Sky+ed for me, so that should keep me busy for a few days at least. Lovely stuff :D

So save the last dance

For me my love 'cause I

I see you as an angel freshly fallen from the sky...

3 interviews in the space of a week, a geek boy who is adorabibble a bit, vampire film this afternoon and awesome friends who are letting me stay at their house for the week and a half that I'm homeless \o/

Life is epically good.

There/ They're/ Their. Different words.

I'm flying to London in a couple of hours!! I'm so so so excited!

Feeling a lot better than I have been for a while now so hopefully things are looking up. :)

Have a fantastic time! Remember - 15:15-16:00 is the best time to go ;)

I got a job! Been looking since april and not a thing then got two offers today... bit like a bus! Turned down BHS and accepted Clarks for the pure fact it was 10p more per hour and i may only be contracted to 5 hours but i can get up to 38 hours overtime if i wanted... i couldnt with BHS... and the poor lady there sounded incredably disappointed when i turned it down cos she was so impressed by my interview....

Very happy with my first year results. I think I owe a lot of thanks to Ellie for that though - I'm the sort of person who will throw stuff across the room through stress if I can't do something - she had the patience and faith in me to keep me going :)

I had a nice relaxing weekend which is great. I'm also feeling quite creative so I'm hoping some of the radio material floating around the forums might get a play out.

I suppose reaching 1,000 followers on Twitter is quite cool too :P

    • 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.
