TTS-Can't keep a good man down.

Have I mentioned before I am a big Richard Allinson fan.

Toggy tea slurper · Guest

No, I don't think you have mentioned that before Laughing

Hopefully you will be getting up especially early next week then to tune into the best dj on the planet.

The fun and excitement all starts at 6am.

Richard Allinson rocks.

Toggy tea slurper · Guest

No, I will be getting up at the usual time.

I will wager anyone who wants to take my bet that his opening lines on Monday morning will include

"I believe that it is a Monday morning today"

and that within 15 minutes he will say

" we have the usual old nonsense"

and

"I dont want to frigten you but its 6.xx am"

I'm hoping to win some ££££'s courtesy of Richie's predictability.

I'll be listening to hear if I'm right!!!

He will be on around 6ish and be on until around 7.30ish. Any complaints blame Sarah Kennedy Laughing

Oh!!!! all the RA sayings Laughing

Some of us are actually looking forward to Richard's stint covering the Dawn Patrol show this coming week and will be tuning in when we don't normally.

I still cannot understand the logic of some folk on these boards.

If you cannot stand Richard Allinson/don't enjoy listening to him why on earth do you tune in-it defies logic-find something else to do/retune your radio.

None of us said we couldn't stand him, I like him, we're only having a laugh.

At 7:28 it will be getting "Worryingly close to 7:30"

I do think Richard had to step aside of his Sunday Oxford show as it was getting over exposed and I think he dosn't really like that? Well he is part of Radio 2 and Sunday Love Songs is a must listened to show. So maybe Richard could stand in on SLS next time?

nod · Joined: 24 Dec 2006 Posts: 3558

'Radio Oxford' and 'over exposed'...two things you don't see too often in the same sentence Laughing

Mark Mayhew · Joined: 11 Dec 2006 Posts: 2897

Somehow I don't think Richard has any interest in presenting SLS's. It's not his sort of show/cup of tea.

Better left to the likes of Lulu to deputise I think for Steve Wright.

Really Mark O-I never knew that RA had presented Sunday Love Songs in the past.

I missed these shows-hope they were good/memorable-presumably Richard livened proceedings/the format a bit (hopefully).

Very good delivery.. Very Happy

Whilst we were asleep ( Rich saying ) 'the world started to fall apart. ( My saying ) Laughing

Gonna to have catch Richard sitting in for Sarah Kennedy earlier today on the Dawn Partol on the listen again feature this evening.

Surprised to find those regular posters to this board have not been on here as yet running Richard down-giveit time I guess.

By the way how's the bet looking Ernie. Did Richard come good for you with his predictable sayings.

Back to work now.

Good afternoon.

Mark, I hope you enjoy it, I did. It is the only time that I put the waterproof radio on in the bathroom whilst getting washed etc.

Tune in for the rest of the week-Richard's delivery might grow on you. Perhaps Richard was distracted by Bobbi's good looks.

My wife tells me " Richard is so much better than Sarah Kennedy".

Have you heard Richard's new set on jingles on BFBS Radio 2 yet-they are very good-like the big band sound.

Richard Allinson rocks.

Sadly Mark I could not listen live to Richard on Monday as my boss wanted me in at some ungodly hour. Still caught up with the Monday show on the Listen Again feature last night-brilliant show imho-great music and some amusing little throw aways etc.

Can enjoy the rest of the week's shows live etc.

For what it's worth Alinson & Walker to start my day is soooooooo much better than Kennedy & Wogan.

Toggy tea slurper · Guest

No way is Johnnie Walker better than Terry Wogan. Rolling Eyes

He is good though.

Unfortunately, Johnnie has turned it into a request show.
