That makes 2 of us.....I'm getting slightly worried as 21st March no longer seems so far away :confused:

I know exactly what you mean!! What is that sign like as well, to be worn on your back!! God, what an embarassment. Still have to get the safety pins to attach the thing.

Are you running in Glasgow, or Paisley??

So, 'Let's Dance For Sport Relief' (new series) is on BBC 1 at 6:45 pm this Saturday, 20th February 2010!!

Fearne Cotton will be off on her cycle trip on Monday, 1st March, so good luck.

Peter Jones, off of Dragons Den, is looking for businesses to give £100.00 www.peterjones.tv Here is what £100.00 can do:-

£100 could pay for an afternoon out for a group of young carers, giving them a much needed break from their caring duties at home.

£100 could pay the monthly salary of two teachers who provide an education to more than 140 street children in Bangladesh.

  • 2 weeks later...

Can people please sponsor Greg James, if possible. He has just newly created a page for himself online. He is doing a run in London (6 miles), and is trying to raise £200.00. So far, he only has £21.00 - please could you help make this higher!!

Thank you. :) Click on the link :- www.bit.ly/6miledead

Because it's in a good cause... otherwise, it would have gone into the R1 does Sport Relief topic, and no doubt got lost in that!!

This topic is fresh and new, and, incidentally, someone I used to work beside spotted it, and is giving £50.00. The power of the topic on unofficialmills.

If raising money for something that could help someone as close to you as just a street away is spam then you can kiss my ass.

I wasn't able to give much, just £2.50, but then I'm sponsoring Scott and myself too. And a neighbour. What did you do today.

Sport Relief ends at the end of next week anyway, so you'll not have to put up with this kind of shocking topic for much longer.

Right, the important stuff:-

Greg has now raised £501.00 - and I am very proud of him. So should we all be. Still could be higher though!! ;-) Like, a LOT higher.

Yeah, absolutely :rolleyes:

By the way, Juggy - if you want to look ultra-glam (like me), why not buy a Sainsbury's Sport Relief "Rise to the Challenge" bag... 2 p from every bag sold is donated to S.R. :-)

You've also made 999 posts, Juggy - one more will make a thousand. :-)

Greg's new goal is now £1,000 - if you haven't already given, and, of course, can afford it, please help make his sponsorship cash higher - he has now raised £516.00...

Viv you knwo you can stop with all the advertising for it now, we all actually know what to do.

Hmmm, yeah. No offence, but it gets shouted at everybody as soon as they turn on the radio.

And slightly off topic, but...

Why do some people have permission to create new threads straight away from being a Welcome Alonger, but I don't? :cry: Not that I'm complaining about the existing threads of course, but I just wanted to know...

Ohai.

    • 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
