Numbers will be manipulated. We'll easilly get 340,000. Infact I'd wager that we'll hit 500,000 given the governments ability to pick numbers out of thin air.
I can see it being totally opposite. "If you (MHK's) want your opinions to be heard, we'll need to drop the competitions and bring in more news stories and we can't afford it...£1.5 million please."
There was a couple of hours of 3FM, and I listened to Stu Peters every night for an hour or two. Most of it though was 5Live and Radio 4 with a bit of the world Service thrown in. Also mentioned were Radio Merseyside and Manchester for sport.

No definately NOT taking the piss. It's a great show with loads of texts and comments which is a continuation of talking heads humour, but without the political side of his previous show. It's going to be show of choice for me. Good shout Dilly.
I've always believed England, Scotland and Wales were Great (as in large), Ireland was Minor Britain. I don't know where I learnt it though. Probably on here.
I've just re-read the reading you did for me for the Summer Solstace 2017 and to be fair, it's accurate. I notice that the deck of cards you are going to use, are the same ones as that 2017 deck.
I could always do with another reading though.
