Sinister: I can't get off my soapbox: it's too high

And I can't work hotmail either, apparently.

Two posts in one day?  Sound like something my Dad would refer to about 
finding employment in the 70s.

Anyway, I have good reason becuase I, like many others, am sure that I was 
ONLY person in the whole of the world to listen to Mark and Lard religiously 
between 10pm and midnight back in the day.  "Of course, they only broadcast 
to MY wireless", I would whinge, in my corduroy-charged, noodle-fuelled 
studenty way.

It's true (says Big stu) that they are solely responsible for B&S's first 
mass broadcast, and I also agree (like Dan) that they're being done a 
horrendous injustice by being allocated the afternoon slot.  But it's the 
mention of guest reporters and general japes that made me post.  Dan 
mentioned Douglas (of BMX Bandits - correct - does anyone remember the song 
'Serious Drugs'?  It was beautful.. woops, tangent).  Hi again.  I was about 
to comment at how mauch I enjoyed Katie Puckrick (sp?) on that show - she 
really added US Supermarket chic to the whole experience.

I've got a CD of all the old characters too - does anyone remember the 
3-second memory span goldfish, Rabbi Lionel Blair, Cyril Dorricot and his 
pathe news?  It's pant-wettingly funny stuff.

No more content aside from the mention of post-Albert Hall disco-dancing.  
I'm sure this is being taken care of by the more socially-aware members of 
the list.  If so, can you let us all know? Ta.

And Stu's right about you Americans - there's really no excuse.

Have you ever seen Dundee?  I have.
