Self piercings are a bad idea (as if that wasn't obvious enough). My mum's against me getting any more (yet, I'm working on it slowly :D) and she really doesn't like that I've stretched my ears.

My mums against it all together,i reckon when im 16 she wont let me get my ears done...

Yeah I doubt my mum'll cave and agree with me when I'm 17, worst case is waiting until your 18 but it seems like ages away IMO

But I'm not convinced and your hopeless hearts won't stick. For the first time I know, this is now who I am.

The first piercing I got was my tongue just before I was 19. It swelled up so much, and I had to eat soup, mashed potato and ice-cream for a week, and then it went down and I had the bar changed so it was smaller. I still have it in now, 7 years later. It's been in so long that my mouth feels really abnormal when I take the bar out to clean it or whatever.

Next I got my ear done, and then I got my eyebrow done. I got my ear done again, and my eyebrow a further 3 times, but then one of my eyebrow piercings grew out, I ripped one out when I was putting on a sweatshirt (ouch!!!) so then I took the other two out. Then I got a new head chef who didn't like piercings and he made me take my earrings out for each shift. Eventually I stopped putting them back in, and now the holes have closed over completely, although there's still a scar.

Sometime between getting my eyebrows done, I also got a Prince Albert, which I took out because one of my exes didn't like it, and then I had it redone when we broke up, but the piercing went really bad and so I had to take it out again. If anyone wants to know how bad it went, I have pictures and stuff cos I sued the studio. (John - don't ever go to Pagan in Leeds - the one on the same side as the Corn Exchange - use the one on the other side of the road.)

I also have the back of my neck pierced, which is cool when I'm in the queue for a nightclub cos it's not a regular piercing, so it gets loads of attention and at least one girl will always ask me about it. Also gets attention when I'm on a bus!

Then I have these transdermal implants on my arms, 4 on each. They're not piercings as such, but you make in incision with a scalpel, insert a piece of jewellery which allows you to screw things into it, and it attaches itself to the skin, sort of, and so you have these metallic bits under your skin, but they're visible, and then you can screw things into them, like spikes. (There's a better description here.

I also have two tattoos, on my lower arms. One is of a dragon, the other is my son's name.

And no, I'm not some weird goth, and only have one pair of black clothing, a pair of jeans. :)

matthewukchef you sound so cool in my book. Sucks about the eyebrow bar being ripped out (I think I'd cry if it happened to me) and even more about the screwed up PA. Appart from the swelling of the tongue was everything else ok with it?

    • Yeah they make the weekend shifts go so much quicker. Like today, the piece about Matt falling asleep in the cafe was funny, it's clear to see why they're going to weekdays. It could well be they were thinking of Danny for it and like you say have decided against that, or like I said at the start it's James Cusack and the slow down on the announcement is him getting out of his contract. Remember he works for radio 1's main rivals. I think it's quite telling that he's doing more r1 cover than usual, tomorrow and then a further 3 weekend shows in a row
    • Nat in for Dean with Vicky between the 28th-30th May.
    • I suspect they’re gonna tie the announcement into something, or they’ve changed plans. I know we’ve said it as a joke but I wonder if Aled was planning on giving it to someone like Danny Beard, but he’s decided against that after the last few weeks. Seems clear to me, though, that if Jordan hadn’t left, then Katie would’ve taken Dean and Vicky’s slot and Matt and Mollie would’ve stayed on weekends, which probably explains why they haven’t picked a replacement yet. If it was going to be the obvious choice, I.e. James Cusack, surely they would’ve announced it by now..?
    • Yep think they mentioned that this is their penultimate weekend of shows but then they will also be on air during Big Weekend and they mentioned they'll be doing 'Party Anthems' on stage during Big Weekend which sounds intriguing. Will miss Matt & Mollie on weekends - they in particular have made that Friday afternoon slot their own - but they'll be great on weekdays. Do wonder if 'Summer on Radio 1' is just a placeholder name until they decide on who will cover the interim. While it's obviously not the case it does feel like they've forgotten there's that weekend afternoon slot to fill given no permenant presenter has been announced for it yet.
    • Zoe Ball is back on the breakfast show on Monday.
    • Just listening to matt and mollie at work and heard them say it's their second to last show on weekends
    • And Arielle mentioned in her Instagram post that her final early breakfast show is the 27th of June - the Thursday before Glastonbury 
    • When Matt covered breakfast on 22nd April, he said their new show was starting in 10 weeks, so that’d be the 1st July.
    • Would love for it to be like the Summer Friday Thing that me and @DC were remisincing about recently. Lots of events going on that could easily form part of it.  https://www.bbc.co.uk/radio1/summer/cardiff/thursday/1.shtml
    • I'm guessing there is also a stack of weekend events like Glastonbury
    • I think more likely it'll just be a temp presenter for weekends 1-4 to give Matt & Mollie time off, plus time to plan and pilot the new show.
    • Yeah I don’t think they’ll be anything that drastic - maybe a week or 2 of cover on early breakfast etc, but maybe just having that weekend afternoon slot covered over the summer means they can put someone on from September who maybe isn’t available until then? 
    • But they said the main changes would happen in July.
    • But they said the main changes would happen in July.
    • I wouldn't be surprised if they do this around June time: 05.00 Ore Olukoga 07.00 Greg James 10.30 RMC 14.00 VKJ  That'll probably happen (for my guess) from the 17th June. And for weekends: 07:00 Sam & Danni 11:00 Gregor Davidson 15:00 Charlie Hedges Maybe Fridays aswell: 07:00 Greg James 11:00 Gregor Davidson 14:30 Jack Saunders
