<mar...@xara.com>, uttered some gubbins:
>Is Mark getting married again??

Well, it's funny you should ask this today, for I've just found this
from teletext!!:

"Radio 1 DJ Mark Radcliffe is to wed his long-term girlfriend at a
private ceremony the weekend after next, followed by a fortnights
honeymoon.

The shy breakfast sow DJ had hoped to keep the marriage to Granada TV
assistant Bella Sharpe "a total secret" a BBC spokeswoman said.

The Church wedding, near the couples home in a Cheshire village, had
been planned for more than a year, long before Mark took over from Chris
Evans on Radio 1's flagship show"


Congratulations Scrawny Boy I say!!!
He's kept that one quiet!

Who's taking over for the two weeks then do we think?
Will Lard go solo?

>And is Marc married?

Aye, with two daughters.

I'll be reverting to _Today_ on R4, I'm afraid

Interviewee: We call it the pooh fungus.
Anna Ford: We don't use words like that on this programme.

Why is this a big surprise? That letter you had from the Cyber Cafe
people said they had to hold things up because Mark is getting married,
and you posted that here days ago!

This is an Oink/"tub of bacon fat"/Lard reference, is it? :)

Yes, but it never named names and details etc, and whilst we *knew* he
was tying the knot, it was still a surprise to read this on teletext!
Also, my feeble brain didn't connect the facts that Cyber Cafe would
have been recorded during the time Mark would be Shagg^H^H^H^H^H on his
honeymoon :)

No, actually it's a reference to my appalling typing skills!

You wouldn't though, would you? It would two weeks like this:

'Hiya Mark!'

Silence

'oh-ho!'

Silence

<farty hand sound>

Silence

'Best bang on a tune, er, me'

<'Location Bangladesh' by Marc Riley and the Creepers, Radio 1 audience
drops to minus figures>

Fear not, as Marky Boy said this morning it's going to be our Kev who
takes over the Brekkie slot.

They must have changed their plans (again) since I last spoke to Nick
Tupperware...

Now what is going on here. For ages Lard has reported that they live here on the Isle of Wight, then all of a sudden changed his tune. Have they moved? If so, who are the people living in my shed?

Bye for now,

Gareth.

Ooh, now you're asking! Cook wih Hook was a HTN quality item, but
I can't remember if it started with this particular prog, or before
or after.
