I'm officially dedicating the 5th paragraph of this post (beginning "I don't even like the word 'Volvo'," Jimmy told me"...) to Emma Hart.

Nice one, David ;-)
Thanks for all the great posts this year!
-
A pleasure, Grace...

Please tell me your radio thing will be available on the interwebs - 10.45 Friday is smack bang in the Playcentre end-of-year picnic.
Also:
And ladies, need I say more than décolletage?
made me not just LOL but also snort unbecomingly.

Dr Lockwood's finest moment was as quizmaster on that TV quiz show. He got such a kick out of it, that his future as the master of Question time became his ultimate dream realised. All the other in-between stuff that you so loyally and truthfully relayed to us David, was nothing compared to his being in control of those rowdies in Parliament.
"Now to question number 6. For $10 the Right Honourable....... -

It will most definitely be on the interwebs here
To take over from Emma as David's secretary briefly, I am informed he will be being interviewed at around 9:30.

Thanks, Megan. You're the first to break the news on a time for this. I guess I'd better go and have a shave. Wouldn't do to be on the radio all stubbly.

Surprise us all and wear a tasteful tie.

tasteful tie
One of those ones that Ministers passed on to their staffers perhaps? - the florid ones that were a gift from K Singh MP.
Oh, and David, I hear that next time you visit Parliament, Security will show you straight to your cell. The next-but-one to Emma's.

What poor bastard gets stuck in between?

Oh,the wonderful symmetry of life--listening to David Haywood on NatRad, whilst posting to his blog!

At 9:26 I thought, oh I must start streaming NatRad, and at 9:41 I had to modify that thought to Bugger! How long does it take them to get the podcasts up??

Aheheheheh. And there I was thinking I could 'cut links' with Volvo, but that's obviously not going to happen.

I got to meet Lockwood Smith during his time as Quizmaster on Its Academic. He strolled into the contestant's waiting area, told us what a great rower he used to be and how he could have raced for New Zealand then left without waiting for a reply from us - whanker.
Kinda got my own back though - when the show was aired there was a shot of our team with me in the middle without sound. I got the previous question wrong and let out a silenced but very obvious "fuck". Profanities on children's time TV were not common in the early 80s

It's up now.
Nicely done Dr Haywood.
You put that pencil down, girl.
No pencil, but I am glaring at you over the rims of black framed glasses.

Ooo, are you going to Shush me?
It's too early for this...

Ooo, are you going to Shush me?
Oh, darling, I couldn't if I tried.

How do you... oh crap. You've been talking to "someone I used to flat with", haven't you?
-
Never too early

Is anyone's long hair pulled back in a severe bun? I ask purely for research purposes.
-
Applause for the reading (haven't heard the i/v yet)

It really is your day on NatRad. The interview and the reading were both delightful.
