My parents finally allowed me to have a computer in my room! And they even gave me their old one, because they don't use it anymore. The only problem is, that it is very slow and I can't use proxies, but everything else is okay. Woooo!!

:D Timsk and I are off to Menton, south of France for a week this Sunday. Will be meeting up with my Pop and bro. and friends. Taking bikini in the hope that it's warm enough to swim. Love swimming in the sea. Fingers crossed.

Zut alors! Gonna watch my silly brother gamble in Monte Carlo too. Hehe.

PS. Sorry to hear about au pairing Sigrid.

Sooo... Today I had the day off (except cleaning and packing my things in the morning) so I thought I might as well go into London and see if I could meet Scott Mills. After all, this might be my only chance ever to do so.

So I went to the Radio1 building and was there at about 4.50. And just outside on his bike, talking to someone else, was Greg James. I didn't plan to meet him, but I did have his card in my bag (I went to the studios on the bank holiday but obviously I didn''t meet anyone so I just got all the cards instead) because I thought there was a slight possibility that I might meet him too - after all he's on just before Scott. So I had my picture taken with him and he signed my card. He was very nice, but so so tall (and I'm quite little, so I thought it was kind of funny).

Anyway, I asked the security guys if Scott was on (I knew he was, but I just asked anyway) and they said yes, but he comes out every once in a while and he'd probably come out in 5 minutes, so I could just wait for him outside.

I went outside and waited, and waited, and waited... And after an hour he finally came out, and I went up to him. He actually remembered me from UM when I said my name, and I told him I'd been too busy lately, so he told me to "get back on there".

Anyway, I had my picture taken and he signed the card (I told him my name with the English pronounciation and he knew/remembered how to spell it).

Then I told him that while I'm here I don't get to listen to Radio 1 at all, because the girls I look after listen to some other station, and he was quite "outraged" by that - he said "What are they doing?!".

So all in all, he was very nice too - and very orange ;)

Such a great way to end my time in London. I have now seen and done everything I wanted. Except Madame Tussaud's, I still need to go there...

That's a lovely story, Danish Girl.

Don't worry about the au-pairing. Looking after someone else's kids is blooming tough (have done it myself).... and never again either!!

Good luck!! Any pictures though, please? :-)

I LOVE the security guys! They're so nice and absolutely friendly. :)

Lovely story, any pictures?

They really are. I first went to the buildings on the bank holiday Monday (silly me, forgot that Scott wouldn't be on) but then I had a nice chat with one of the security guys, he told me a lot about the different DJs and said that I should just take one of each of the cards. Just all of them :)

How do I insert pictures, should I make a blog?

    • I think Ellie has definitely proven to be been a great fit.  The story of her finding a flat and Roger the cat was a real ice breaker for the feel of the show as a whole I think.  Add to that Scott giving Ellie his ticket to the Brits and the stories that came from it, I really think she adds value. Not only is the rapport between her and Scott already brilliant, but she also comes across as a funny, down to earth presenter in her own right.  I think she's fab and will only continue to get better as the show progresses. I would initially have agreed with the thought that she could be a co-presenter, and I suppose her prominence in the show is such that she could be seen as that, seemlessly.  However, for me the show is a bit too guest-heavy for a co-presenter.  That's probably just the nature of having such a high-profile show, I think it might feel like too many voices to try to get a fairly short (and sincere) interview in with a huge star. Back in the days of R1 when they could play fun games with the guests then yes, but I get the impression that Scott needs to go for serious and genuine with most of the ones he has had so far. I mostly prefer the bits of radio without guests - that goes for all radio shows, not just Scott's.  The 6.30-8am where it's just Scott, Ellie, and Tina, are my favourite bits of the show for sure.  Which is a long winded way of me saying that Ellie was a great choice 😄 
    • @Opalmoon I couldn't agree with you more. Scott and Chris made genuine magic happen on the radio and I'm starting to think that nothing will ever equal that era.  I often listen back to the old podcasts, and I think you've hit the nail on the head when you say they were effortlessly funny together.  They could make the most simple of things laugh-out-loud funny, and it must have been because they were real friends who just used to make each other laugh, which in turn made brilliant radio.   They have both gone on to do such big things apart, probably more than if they had carried on together at Radio 1, and I'm really pleased for them both.  I don't think you're stuck in the mud (if you are then I am too) - a Scott and Chris podcast would be a dream come true. I'm not sure it could even be a thing while they are both working at different stations, but I hope they can make it work one day.  With Beccy producing, that would be the icing on the cake!   I would love for Scott to be a guest on Chris & Tom Kerridge's podcast, if nothing else.   Who knows, maybe one day Chris will find himself back at the BBC on 5Live and we'd have more chance of having them back working together then.
