When I (very) first started in radio (in 1991), it was frowned upon to play 2 x female vocalists back-to-back. 3 x female vocalists back-to-back would have earned you a talking to.
I think it was a rule of thumb pretty much everywhere.
A rule of thumb we ignored with great enthusiasm x

If it’s any consolation, Brunt definitely has to follow that ball in #wxmafc

In a different time the chairmen of Widnes, St Helens and Hull KR would all be racing to the petrol station.

Disgraceful behaviour from a prop to score a try like that, not sure it’s even allowed #irevwal #sixnations

If I had the talent to be a rugby player/captain you’d all be bored shitless because it would be rare indeed to see me turning down three points in the circumstances Wales just did #irevwal #sixnations

If a guy going for a Scooter vibe who can bring the Wrexham effect into the mix doesn't win then it's time to finally jack it in. I've since found that he now lives in the place I spent my first ten years so I've got to behind the lad with maximum force.

When I was at Exeter University there was a guy who called himself Arthur Pendragon who ended up in the dock because he kept walking around with a sword. I saw him once buying milk in a Co-op.

Well, I'm going to celebrate World Book Day by juggling Cymru Fydd by William Owen Roberts, a Welsh book which is too difficult for me and is going to take me months, and Aidan Williams' book about Euro 84. Because this page is never not on brand.

One was a jazz drummer but I don’t know his proper job. One was a nurse, signed off sick young & my grandma’s job of looking after pre-adoption babies took over. The latter is an adoptive grandparent; what the blood relative did is a mystery but I know he was arrested for stealing Fray Bentos pies.

Careful, still reeling from dealing with pre-match cider overload at Rushden & Diamonds (!) with a player getting treatment right up the other end. Came back out in time for post-goal celebrations and people laughing at me as I walked up the stairs. Would have seen it if I hadn’t washed my hands.

Man decided to break into the Chester stadium. Turned up and saw there was nobody around and thought no better time to get in than now when it’s empty. Only caught because the 22 players saw him climbing down the main stand…

Definitely worth thinking about how Wales’ 1994 championship win would be framed if it happened now, as when Ieuan Evans got the first ever trophy in defeat at Twickenham he looked like he’d lost a pound and found a penny.

Elsewhere in Welsh football, Barry Town have ensured that TNS will win neither domestic cup. Not to be sniffed at these days.

Very little screamed madness more than expanding Superleague to three extra teams without a pot to piss in, and there was basically no strategy to it because there never is, AND YET the new teams are creating merry hell. Maybe it will prove to be inspired #SLHulYor #rugbyleague

Imagine what you, yes you, could have achieved if you had the bulletproof confidence of most politicians. You would humiliate yourself often of course, but you could just barrel through it.

Truly think there’s more of a call for it than ever. During a couple of years without Sky Sports it was a pleasant surprise to rediscover that there is still quite a lot of live sport for free. I don’t know why it makes a difference for it to be on BBC1, but it does so bringing it back could work.

Probably something that needs to be fixed at the Rock too - we tend to be ok there but if you want wheelchair access I’m pretty sure it’s “if it rains, you get wet”.

Strangely not played them there yet either. Hopefully a bit of a hype train ready to leave the station for it.

This time they’ve given a month’s notice of it happening there, about three weeks more than usual, so if there are issues there should be time to sort them out with any luck. If they’re giving it a big build up they must be serious about pushing it so it could be something like a men’s matchday.
