Whats your local station like? Years ago mine used to be awful. They never played any current music and always seemed to play Genesis or Phil Collins all the time. Now though, i think its great, sometimes better than the national one / major ones and play all the modern up to date stuff

i listen to galaxy smiles.gif thelounge_dance3.gif
Scorpio
Is that local?
Kellyxx
erm they have all dif areas so yes they have galaxy manchester yorkshire ect
Scorpio
Ah ok i think thats kinda similar to mine. Mines part of a network of other local stations i think cos sometimes they all do the same things a the same time. Like Graham Torringtons Late Night Love which is great thelounge_dance3.gif its like a talk show for love problems or something. And i know that they also do the Top 40 chart show and thats the same as the big Capital Radio one in London

We have WISH FM - and I wish they'd pack up and f**k off because they are awful! It's like SMOOTH FM mixed with a NOW album.

Nope none of those. I wasn't a presenter. I was part of the sales team that supplied the content for the commercial breaks.

she drives me mad, she's like a female version of jamie oliver, in your face and really annoying!!!!!
Rach227
Yea I find her reeeaaallly annoying I think it's the voice lol
Scorpio
I've noticed her voice too. The way she pronounces her "sh"s is very irrititating

I dont mind Vernon though. But i do find him cheesey on the tv
Rach227
I think vernon is funny (don't know about him on the radio) but he's funny on TV, but I need to be in the mood to listen to him
