Anything that fills the schedule is a good thing but Bank Holidays, depending on the weather, a lot of people go away for the weekend and don't return until late Monday night. I have my usual request show which has been running most Mondays for almost 3 years now.

yes, we know the reasons why people dont - lets be upbeat and try to encourage those that are around to participate

I would be interested in takin part, I may have to juggle my scedual around a bit but I reckon I could do that.

I'm not to worried about a lot of listners being away on holiday either, I'm happy to broadcast tothe ones that arn't

This is the day I come back from a music festival so I'm bound to be prodigiously hungover. BUT Rhodders is in! Lets put moaning on hold, dust off those headphones, rally the troops and blast this bank holls. Great idea I'm already excited.

Righty oh, I am in! I've provisionslay booked midnight till 2am, which echnicaly means I'd be first up on the bank holiday. Now, in anyone else want's to take those times and open the bank holiday special instead, let me know as I can move to another slot if need be with a litlte bit of jugling my scedual for Monday. Being self employed anyway means scedual juling is often an option, and althouh I don't usualy take the bank holiday off, there is no reason why I can't!

I'm actualy pretty excited about this idea as it goes. Especialy if we do the untinkable and get the entire days scedual filled!

I'm half temptted to put on an hour of radio plays as I've a lare collection of ones in teh public domain and ones freinds have written and produced, and radio plays are actualy what ot me into radio in the first palce as a kid. Hmmmm, thouhts?

I'm in - and I've booked two hours 10am - 12 for a 'lie in' show, nothing too heavy, lots of great music, I'll do some Fun Fascinating Facts, and light hearted news items and loads more. So grab your laptop, and a coffee, and jump back into bed for a proper bank holiday 'Lie in' - See You Soon!!

No Bank Holiday in Scotland, but I look forward to the full and varied schedule whilst I work Great idea, Adam

I could probably contribute something. Been thinking about bringing The Bridge back to life with a more colorful and varied approach. I'll book the slots and get to work on the details. Also: boobs.

If I get time, I'm going to try to make a jingle this week (I might ask for a couple of presenter's help to do some dry lines for me), but if anyone else wants to have a go at making one, feel free

Great Idea, although I missed the opportunity for a reasonable slot on that day on account of being on holiday! Oh well, have fun!
