A feeling of pure ecstacy that just cannot be defined. The demo saved my life.

"If an alarm can't be turned off whilst you're not there, the Council will switch it off for you ...costing £150."
It sounds a little sarcastic and almost tabloidy - don't mean to put you down but it just sounded, well, sarcastic to me.
"The council will silence it at a cost of £150" might have been more appropriate.

Nothing sarcastic about that at all. Maybe a little tabloidy, but for a lot of commercial radio stations that works well. It depends on the target audience of the station.

Agreed - thing to remember is that Fosseway Radio's target audience is somewhat more refined - than that of, say, a GWR station. The DJs and newsreaders are generally a lot more friendly and "personal" - you feel like you're being talked to, not at.

I find virtually all music DJs far short of "cracking".
Listening to these twats is like Heat magazine for the ears. Pathetic.

But of course I can't help but think we're all missing the real issue here. Rod likes his photos, and James Martin likes his demos...I've actually come to look forward to them. In fact, I can tell you that I was absolutely RAMMED because of it. Doesn't make sense? It's not supposed to...
I need another cracking demo!!
