Unfortunately, in a two horse race you get bugger-all for coming second, except maybe a quick trip to the glue factory :shock:

The winner, a smart git called Simon, won a years' subscription to Classic Rock magazine, which I wouldn't have minded at all as it's my favourite music comic at the moment :cry:

like you i got them all in that round, i missed one in your five so only gave myself 9pts instead of 10, for the life of me i couldn't remember the name of the guy and the bird that did je t'aime, being only about ten at the time.

i scored feck all in the last round, i'd never even heard of half the bands

you were the moral winner, theres nothing worse than a smart arse which i think that simon was, bit of an anorak rather than a real music lover, loved the show all the same, had the kind of feel to it that i always imagined a collaboration would have had, you have to admit, our old KCR co-presenters always held us back, didn't they?

Well, it was nice going from a once-upon-a-time regional radio presenter to being heard all over the planet.

I don't get down to the Toon often enough to commit to a proper schedule on the radio, and it's unlikely that another studio is ever going to appear in Mad-Argyll so I don't know if I'll be doing much more live stuff, but there is always the possibility of doing something clever with an old tape recorder and astute editing(removing noises of barking dogs, doors creaking open and slamming shut, wife calling me down for ma tea, that kind of thing).

The only trouble with that approach is, it would take me a month to put an hour long programme together!

as opposed to your hour long program appearing to last a month?

just had to, you left the door wide open there, always ready to sneak up on the blindside

could be worse theres some make an hour seem like a lifetime

you were probably too busy getting promoted, and having your name put up in lights, that and it was aweek ago, so if you hadn't logged on last friday night and seen the original message, you would have missed it, i have it saved on my sky+ but the whole thing goes on for nearly an hour, i might lose the will to live if i record it onto disk, then stick it on my pc, then edit it down so its short enough to post on youtube, i'm getting a headache just writing this bit, oh and he lost, so its not as big a deal, if he'd won, i would have had it online that day, i never tire of listing to his voice (brownie points, should see me thru to the end of next year)

how is the grass over there bobbie? any greener?

I'm delusional. I have no fences, never could figure out "my place", and always seem to be standing in the greenest grass :lol: :lol: :lol:
