welcome dave.
There are only really 5 questions this board needs to know:
1) Richard Allinson Yes or No?
2) Steve Wright No or No way?
3) Will Terry retire before 2100?
4) Chris Evans - saviour of radio or the end of civilisation as we know it?
5) Will Alex Lester ever be allowed out in daytime?

and,
6) Will Radio 2 ever broadcast pre-1940 British dance band music again? (other than the odd track on Desmond's show)

Welcome davem
1) Definitely yes
2) Definitely no
3) Who knows?!!
4) Should be done for crimes against the airwaves as should Douglas be for giving him a third opportunity to commit them!
5) He already has been, deputising for Ken Bruce, Steve Wright & in the dim & distant past Johnnie Walker on Drivetime. _________________ Lord Evan Elpuss, Your ideal job is a Lumberjack.

That'll be you then Scott - probably. I could be proved wrong here but this forum has saturated as far as membership is concerned. Any new members either:
a) Never post, or
b) Post prolifically in the first week of membership in attempt to hide their true identity.
Like I say, I could be wrong but I'm always suspicious at least. |

Angus, we've already dealt with Scott twice in the last week.
You can't go pouncing on the likes of davem after 4 messages.
Take that as a gentle un-recorded warning  |

I see we have two new members here today- 'Guess who' (easy one) and Mrs Iain Smith (ditto)
By co-incidence, Scott has two alter egos on the POV MB now 'AA' and 'AXE'  |
