Sunday 18th August

I just could not be bothered getting out of bed this morning, and didn’t get round to my pre-lunch advertising blitz for The Sunday Alternative. By the same token, I didn’t listen to Just A Minute either, which is how I like to start my Sunday. I manage to type things on my computer while listening to the radio at the same time, which makes me wonder if I should give a tutorial to the rest of my ‘friends’ on Facebook. They never seem to be able to do this, despite my rather aggressive hint dropping every week. They seem able to comment during The X-Factor and other such drivel, so why they can’t type something along the “wow, I can’t believe the high quality of music being played here, why the fuck aren’t you on BBC 6 Music?” lines at the same time as listening to me?

Gary is going on holiday tomorrow morning and has an early start, so he didn’t join me this week. I was a little disappointed as I have very little to contribute to the show when I do it alone, he will be back next week. I wasn’t sure if Cassia was due to join us or not as we hadn’t spoken since Wednesday, but she texted to say that she wasn’t feeling well and wouldn’t be able to make it along. The studio lacks a certain atmosphere these days, as we don’t have the hustle and bustle of a radio station these days. Maybe it’s because nobody bothers to come in on a Sunday, but I can’t imagine it being that busy during the day. We only have live programmes in the evening, and unfortunately people just turn up and do their show and then go home these days with no social element. There was an eerie feeling to the show caused by having to let myself in to an empty studio, but at least I managed to get into the bloody studio this week.

As I had demolished a roast pork lunch earlier in the day, and was emitting the results of the sprouts several hours later. With that in mind it was probably a good thing I was on my own.
