According to the schedule Alex is sitting in for Ken on Monday. Is that whilst he's on his way on the big ship with Roger Royle?

Yes, I would assume he's heading to the ship on Monday.

I suppose he could have taken a week off, but (with his regular trips to Yorkshire) it seems Radio 2 are only too happy to accommodate him around his various commitments. Which is a good thing Smile

He's actually heading for New York and will be returning to blighty on the boat with Roger Royle and 2 auction winners Very Happy

At least Dermot isn't sitting in this time.

Rachel will be pleased, and I'll add Alex to my 'Listen Again' schedule! Smile

Downside is that either Tim "Sidekick" Smith or Pete "Timecheck" Mitchell will no doubt be sitting in again for Alex, so I'll have to suffer whilst I'm getting ready for work!

I'm devastated!... I have to get up really early on Monday to travel, so I would have been able to listen to Alex in his normal slot. I'll be in Wales at an important, can't be missed, meeting, which starts at 09:30 - 12:00. Humph!!! ....

More of Zac, on Tuesday next week.... Smile

Aye, Toggy, I know....

It's still good to have some daylight Lester, even if it's just for a day.

I just hope Pete (mogadon man) Mitchell doesn't make me fall asleep at the wheel on Monday morning Rolling Eyes

Just to cofirm then.

The mighty/excellent /fantastic etc presenter called Richard Allinson is covering/sitting in for Steve Wright for the whole of the week commencing 30-04-07.

It will be 15 hours of high quality radio entertainment over the week.

Don't miss it is the best advice we (?) can give you.

The last few times I've heard Alice, he seems to have gotten into the habit of sounding and acting far too smug for his own good.
