|

Its come to my attention that Alex has not had a single day off this year and has only had one week off since last summer.(that was in december).I'm getting a bit worried about him.EAveryone neds a break sometime,especially when they work nights.He must be entitled to some holiday leave by now! |

Not an Alex listener then?
It's fairly common knowledge for those who do listen that....
Alex is off for a whole month from the middle of June- he's doing another American Adventure.. blogging his way across the states in an open top tank. Kelly's Heroes style - in a I don't know how to fix em I just drive em kind of way!
Tim Smith is covering.
Alex also has Monday morning off next week cos he's doing Drivetime on Monday instead |

How would we know if Alex was cracking up or not? He's pretty barking at the best of times. _________________ His name was ernie ........ and he drove the fastest milk cart in the west..... |

Iain Smith - Alex Lester has had loads of time off this year! Maybe you were too busy being a mole when Alex was absent? |

Yes. The annoying Nikki Bedi or excellent Tim Smith usually sit in for him. |

But as for holidays - Mark Lamarr - his Friday night show seems to never be covered by someone else - and, from what I gather, it's live? Even when he's presenting seven hours later during the Wossy Slot. |
