Trams on Melbourne local radio

[Mal Rowe]

Those who are in Melbourne or who can get their radio feed from the 'net
are warned that I have been asked to talk about Melbourne's trams
tomorrow (Thursday 20th) on ABC local radio Melbourne (774).

I'm scheduled to be on at 3:20pm but that is subject to change (e.g. if
the local Liberals change their leader again).

You probably won't hear anything that you don't already know, but you
can earn respect by telling me afterwards what I get wrong.

Unlike your daughter, Mal, you don't have a face ( or voice) 😊for radio.

The current Liberal leader was baptised into the Catholic Church, the Liberal Party and the Collingwood Football Club. Each to their own on the first two but the third one.... Oh dear.

Hugh Waldron and his wife visited us at Whiteman Park on Sunday. I was driving 891 which he says he drove when it was at Kew.

Yes - for me.

Now bumped to 4:30, but a Melbourne tram driver will be on at 3:20.

It's now 4.41 pm and no Mal Rowe !

This announcer is an idiot , all over the place like a dog's breakfast. No wonder the ABC is failing in the ratings.

Noel in Perth. I get my fix from streaming services, Spotify and Audible and maybe Double J once in a blue moon.
