What is that woman's name who always rings up to talk about nothing. 'Hi Clive, it's..., yeah, I know , yeah Clive....' (very southern?)

and there's another posh one who rings in and every other word is 'you know'.

prob is for me with Clive i tend to fall asleep (have radio on with headphones under pillow) and then wake up and Bill is on so i don't hear his whole show only half an hour really before i'm off.

I'm more with it for recognising regulars with Nick - Sybil, Sheila from Cockfosters etc etc

I met Nick recently as his mum lives fairly nearish to us - really lovely lovely guy

He seems like a nice guy. I used to listen to Nick but only listen on a Thursdays now as MIL has kids. The DAB radio is in the bedroom so can't listen to it in the morning and don't have time!

I do the headphone thing too and often wake up at around 5 am with a sore ear and realise Clive is now Steve Allen.

I get really thrown if i'm ill or something and I listen at times I don't normally as I don't have a clue who i'm listening to and it doesn't feel quite right.

stillenacht · 13/01/2009 22:52

Yes i can't listen to Nick Abbot (he stole Iain's show ) and i find James Max at times an irritating twonk.

God why Ken Livingstone as well???What possessed them?????

Don't like most female presenters - Jenni Barnett is too lovey lovey for me. Katie Breathwick - too girly, petrie - as above - Alison bell - chips on her shoulder about motherhood BUT

I did love Carol McGiffin

OP posts:
Ledodgy · 13/01/2009 22:59

I've only heard Carol once but liked her and agree with you about James Max.

Well it's been lovely talking to you but I need my bed and my headphones! Night night.

I did the earphone thing last night and woke up with a sore ear again!

HeadFairy · 14/01/2009 23:15

Another LBC fan here too, I love James O Brian (sometimes anyway, sometimes he just makes me mad) Nick Ferrari is great in the morning cos he's such a Daily Mail reader he gets me screaming at the radio

stillenacht · 14/01/2009 23:16
