General Discussion Area / Re: What has P*ssed you off today?
« on: 16 February 2024, 21:52:26 »About 6 years ago I did 13 night shifts in row. Had 3 days off then did another 5.
Nearly bloody killed me.
just 13 nights?
Many many years back, we regularly did 19 nights out of 21, had 2 nights off, ad infinitum for 3 or 4 months. Then the same again for the next couple of years. Of those 19 nights, 14 or 15 of them were 12 hours.I don't do nights anymore though!

many many moons back, Martin sorted a fob out for me. He included a couple of switches in the envelope when he sent it back to me .... they're somewhere still in the envelope in my garage!

Jo Wiley said earlier on R2 that he provided the soundtracks of our lives and she was right. He was one of those enduring fixtures that made up part of the fabric of the nation that wove through all our lives.
A true legend. RIP.
Don't think I have heard a single show of his that wasn't him giving it 100% and thoroughly enjoying it. Up there with Terry, Paul Gambacini and Alex Lester.
Vernon Kay was only just holding it together this morning ....
