Next Tuesdays (4th August) show promises to be a radio first. My wife Jan and I are throwing our silver wedding bash; yes silver, live from Manchester radio online studios. The studio audience/party revellers guest list is now full but give me a nod back here if you would like to be at the studio on the night. Should anyone drop out we should be able to fit you in but the point here is you can join the celebrations via our fantastic satellite link at www.manchesterradioonline.com from 7pm 4th August. Send us messages of congratulations on the night to studio@manchesterradioonline.com and tell Jan what a hero she is suffering me all these years.
Yeah, but thanks for replying anyway. I don't use MySpace much except for posting this huge, novel in blog form. I don't think I could do that on face-crack (that sounds pretty risque, doesn't it?).
Oh my that must have made you very happy. They need to do what they do though. I know I hope that mine will stay this young forever, but we know how that will end.
