Is this the shortest ever? John Marsh was back on the radio today reading the news, one month after leaving to retire. Did Janet kick him out? _________________ His name was ernie ........ and he drove the fastest milk cart in the west..... |

He has only semi retired, it was said at the time that he will be returning from time to time. He will be coming in every 6 weeks with Charles Nove filing in where he would have been.
He's just come back from Maritius so that pension pay off must have been good |

It's good to have Johnny back, allbeit occasionally. I hope Terry is in a better state to get through Thursday's J&J story. He struggled manfully this morning. _________________ Geddon

Terry's feeling a bit under the weather at the moment, he's been struggling for a few days.
Lovely to hear John back, he has such an infectious giggle It was a funny story this morning, the writer is very clever. |

Toggy, I think her exact words were "Scary" and that she was not strong enoughfor the experience. _________________ Geddon

The one that forced me to pull over into a layby as I was laughing so much was the "Oxo Tower" one.... I guess we all have our favourites. _________________ Author: “To the Ends of the Earth: A Snapshot of Aviation in North-Eastern Siberia, Summer 1992”

The "Oxo Tower" one was the first one I heard live. I don't think I've ever been quite the same since I heard that one.... _________________ Author: “To the Ends of the Earth: A Snapshot of Aviation in North-Eastern Siberia, Summer 1992”

I do enjoy when they corpse on air during Janet and John but also, remember Boggy totally losing it reading the news when he got to the item about the guy with the firework up his bum?

You'll all no doubt be shocked to learn that this morning's Janet & John story was the very first one I've heard....
I can now see what you're talking about!
Very funny, I also found myself laughing out loud!

They did it to me again yesterday ( 5/4/7 ) with "the cockle stand".
It's so hard to drive with blurred vision.
I really should start pulling over! _________________ "Timpani!, Timpani!, They've all got it Timpani!"- All drummers know the pain of skin trouble. |
