Mayhem with Liz and Shax!

Webcams, curry and kissing!

2009-11-23T21:35:00.000Z

I've been a bit lax at blogging recently aside from the mini video one yday....check it out - we were learning to use shax's built in webcam (built in to his laptop, that is, not built in to him....tho if it were it might look something like this)

Anyway, today's show was fun and went very very quickly, I think because we were mainly concentrating on eating curry. We went to the shop before and got two chicken tikkas and an accompanying bombay potato for only £5. Bargain! It did rather stink the studio out (again), and the office, and the shop. Peter wasn't very happy and gave Shax a bit off a ticking off. Shax was unconcerned though as at that precise moment Mr Wimble's chocolate caught his eye.....

So only one show left from us (you can actually catch me on other RMFM shows, check the schedule for details.....though of course Munchtime Mayhem with Shax is my favourite) until the next FM broadcast when I suspect we will be persuaded back.

Be sure to check out the Podcasts page of rmfm to cetch up on the best bits of Mayhem with Liz and Shax.

Love Liz xxx

p.s. shax mentioned on the blog that on todays show I was talking about kissing safely well this is an interesing link all about it....The best news being that kissing is more hygenic than shaking hands, so don't worry too much everyone *mwah*

23rd November show

2009-11-23T14:26:00.002Z

Hi Guys, As promised on todays show here is a pic of Liz in her 'almost' indecent little dress. It's tough to see as she's all in black but take it from me it achieves the desired effect. The show was the usual mix of chaos, food and more chaos. Liz was talking about ways avoiding swine flu when kissing. And I was banging on about how the bbc is about as much use as a chocolate fire guard. Liz likened me to the Grumpy old men. She's not far wrong I guess. I'll get Liz to blog a bit after she's finished propper work.

Hi All. Well we've just finished the lunchtime show on RMFM for Monday 16th Nov. The wind ups continue with me getting three in to Liz's & Mr W's none. I am now miles ahead in a pretty well unassailable position as KING of the RMFM Wind-ups. Liz is still talking to me though Just!. Liz has promised to have the podcasts up and running on http://www.romneymarsh.fm/ ASAP. Drop by and check them all out. Today's Munchtime sketch was about me trying to re-assemble the back of Liz's Corsa after she had returned my drum kit that Mr W had borrowed for the use of the bands at the annual Allied showcase. She couldn't put the seats and parcel shelf back so I had to do it with her trying to help. Bless. Popey and cars do not enjoy the best of relationships!. If I can put it like that. I did a spoof ad about Allied which Mr W appreciated muchly as the pic clearly shows. I also aired Liz's grovelling apology to me in the form of an 'Our Tune' which amused her greatly. The last one was a spoof of Liz at the Allied showcase. As I say, you can check all these out on the podcast at http://www.romneymarsh.fm/

That's it for now. I would guess Liz will be retalliating at some point so until I blog again, addio per ora il mio friens

The Wind Up Situation

2009-11-13T14:07:00.004Z

Hi all, Shax here. Right lunch done. Pork steak, mashed pots, sprouts and carrots. Nice!.

The wind up situation is as follows. Mr w started it all off AGAIN with a scurrilous character assasination on myself, surprisingly, with the help of my co-presenter Liz Pope. I had done nothing to deserve such treatment and retaliated by producing a spoof advert pertaining to the dubious character of mr wimble and mailed it to Liz Pope demanding they remove the offending soundbite from the RMFM website or I would post my spoof advert on my facebook page, which meant it would have been exposed to all of our joint friends, and appologise to me for the damage to my character. Liz Pope aired her appology live on the Lunchtime show on Thursday. It was very sincere and brought a tear to my eye. *chuckle*. I insisted mr w post a comprehensive appology on his Facebook page which, after fierce protestations, he did. It was my moment of triumph as I hadn't been offended at all and in fact thought their spoof feature on me was hilarious. When i informed mr w, via my Facebook page that he was in fact the subject of a bet between Liz and myself that i would never be able to get mr w to appologise to me publicly on Facebook he was not amused to say the least. So war has now been declared on all fronts between mr w, Liz & Myself. I, however, cannot be bothered any more and consider myself the winner with my groveling appology from David Wimble on his Facebook page for all to see being unbeatable. So I will let mr w and Liz battle it out for second place.

Listen in to the show on Monday as I expect the dopey pair will be trying once again to claim the wind up crown as their own. On my part I promise never again to stoop to such childish behaviour in the pursuit of broadcasting entertainment ;)

Ciao for now miei amici Shax

First Munchtime Show!

2009-11-09T14:03:00.010Z

Hello!

We have just finished our first Monday Munchtime Mayhem Show! We had lots of fun and food! Before the show we purchased Sub of the day from Subway which was Chicken Tikka Sandwiches, and cakes from Elsies in the High Street. I had a jam donut, and shax had TWO (of course) Eccles Cakes! Shax especially enjoys the food....bless.

The show itself was great! We played lots of cool music, including some great new tracks such as Lily Allen's new Single 'Who'd have known' and Shax's current favourite 'Under the Sheets' by Ellie Goulding. Check her out. Shax reckons she's gonna be huge. Not physically of course but artiste wise....unless she starts to eat as much as he does.

As we blog in the office at the moment Councillor Clive Goddard appears wearing a Sp*rs Shirt. Not to be outdone Shax appeared from making the tea with something rather silly balancing on his head declaring "If people are allowed in here wearing tottenham clothes it's ok if I wear my Arsenal hat" The hat was of course my Arsenal cereal bowl! Shax was inches from death when the bowl very nearly slipped from his head, luckily for him I caught it! And talking of football we will be posting the Sketch we played on the show of Shax and I attending Arsenal V Celtic champions league match at the Emirates (Hemmoroids.....leave it Shax!!!) Stadium as a podcast on the RMFM website later today.

Also we want to say thanks to Steve of Freeflow Drains for donating a MP3 Player as a prize for our competition. The question was what is the instrument you stick down drains to unblock them? The answer was of course 'Drain Rods' and winner Sandie will soon be able to listen to Liz and Shax Podcasts on her new MP3 Player! Mandy at Heath Art Crafts also donated a prize of a masterclass in Ceramic painting, which Simon Collins ended up giving away on his show (which is after ours 2 till 5pm). If you are a local business and want to donate a prize for us to give away on next weeks show then please get in touch 01797 362000 or email liz@romneymarsh.fm.

Anyway that's it for now! We shall blog again later in the week. Thanks for reading and listening.

Love Liz and Shax

The last show

2009-06-24T00:48:00.001+01:00

What a fab last show. It was a bit self indulgent to be fair but fun. We would like to thank all who supported us during the last two weeks and we'll see you again in November.

Stay safe for now and look after yourselves...

Last show

2009-06-23T11:42:00.002+01:00

It's our last show tonight and to celebrate the fact we will be ordering, eating and reviewing a curry supplied from one of the marsh's many curry establishments, live on air. I am thinking of something like a chicken balti with chips and Keimanan. Luvly Jubbly!

Also on the show we will be re-playing the sketches and karaoke stuff we've done. So tune in for Comedy George doing his very own interpretation of The Village People's YMCA, Dave Wimbles classic version of Handbags and Gladrags (at least that's what he says it is. Liz and I have our doubts) , Liz and myself MURDERING Summer Loving from Grease, and a new song which you will have to listen in tonight at 9 to find out. Plus a new song from Dave Wimble. Again, you will have to tune in tonight to find out what it is. Plus, hear about Liz and Myself's outing to Lydd Club Day where Liz had a tad too much festive alcohol!

Just to add a note, The RMFM crew are all decending on the Neptue, Dymchurch for their monthly jam night next Monday 29th where we will be Murdering The Three Dog Night's 'Joy To The World' and Edison Lighthouse's 'Love Grows Where My Rosemary Goes' It would be great to have some support as we need all the suport we can get there..

Peace and love to you all

A very tired Liz here. Been a long weekend. Enjoyable though.

Me and Shax were DJing at the Ship Hotel, New Romney on Friday night. It was a little quiet to start with but the party really got going a bit later on - so I'd definitely suggest people going down there in future weeks.

I want to say hello to all the people we met who were requesting (and dancing to) lots of cheesy tunes! I took a few photos and will put them on various parts of the internet (maybe rmfm website, our facebook group and of course the blog) as soon as I can find the cable to connect my (new)phone to the pc.
Once the Ship closed I got Shax to drive me to get food - we went to Romney Grill in the avenue, I'd never been there before and was very pleasantly surprised. Firstly the entertainment was of the highest quality - drunk people trying to get free food, and hats from the workers is tres amusing.....especially if you're not drunk! And the food was good. Shax had chips and I had a chicken burger, which was much better than one I'd had a few weeks before from a different kebab house. So I will be visiting there again!

Then on Saturday night I was out on the town in Folkestone and had a blinding night! Lots of people were out and about including some friends I don't see very often, so much fun was had.....and there will be a fair few stories to tell about that night in our friendship circle for the next few weeks (at least).....but I won't go into it on here!

Back to radio shizzle - I'm just about to pick out some tunes for tuesdays show so if anyone's got anything they want played (not requests as such....more suggestions!) then please let me know (either message me on facey-b or leave a comment here) and I might add it to my playlist :P

Love you all loads

Just added some new pods for you. Just follow this link www.romneymarsh.fm/podcast.html The RHDR sketch makes me laugh even now and our version of Summer Lovin from Grease is a crease!!!! (did you see what I did there)? Have a listen and let us know what you think of them. Even if you say they're rubbish. We can take criticism. And rejection. We're well 'ard we are.

I was shattered on the show on Tue as I had been to the tennis at Eastbourne all day and drove back to Folkestone and then on down to the studios in New Romney. I arrived at 21-45 and was knackered when i got there but Liz rescued the proceedings as usual and in the end we managed to deliver another top two hours of comedy and blinding tunes. It's no wonder the show is the most popular on the station.

There you go, let's see how much trouble I can get into with THIS blog.........

Have a good weekend you leg-ends BYEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!

I'm In Trouble

2009-06-15T16:50:00.002+01:00

Apparently I'm in trouble for dissing the comedy night Liz dragged me to at The Village Hotel, Maidstone.

I apologise for any offence i have caused. The comedy night was actually very good and I chuckled a good deal myself. As i said on the first blog, comedy nights are not my favourite thing but I appreciate the effort that goes into them. The people who came for the comedy night enjoyed it and were very satified with the nights entertainment.

I hope everyone is fit and well and I look forward to joining Liz on the show tomorrow when i get back from the tennis at Eastbourne

Satisfying Sunday

2009-06-14T23:25:00.003+01:00

Tonight Shax and I were in the world famous attic studios where we successfully completed two sketches of un-paralleled comedienic genius, and two karaoke tracks that we managed to slaughter even more than you would hear in the worst karaoke bar in the world! We fully intend to assult your ears with these on the forthcoming 'Liz and Shax Tuesday Mayhem' shows on 87.8 Romney Marsh FM.

So make sure you tune in to hear all about our trip to the RHDR and a well known Marsh event.

Shax is off to watch the girls play tennis (the perve) at Eastbourne on Tuesday and should be back in time for the show, but if not the show will go ahead as planned with him joining in when he gets back. So do do do do do tune in and give us a text or email (details on www.romneymarsh.fm).

Ciao for now

Liz's quiet saturday

2009-06-14T02:17:00.001+01:00

A quiet saturday night in is not possible - especially when the drinking kicks off with a couple of glasses of pimms at a village fete at 2pm.

I decided to be very british and me and a couple of friends went to said fete, ended up spending about £10 on various things, including a tombola on which we won about 50p's worth of prizes - but it's all for charity so never mind....except of course that im skint and payday is another 2 and a half weeks away (I really must manage my money better). And as it was such a nice day we then went back to mine via tescos (and my friends houses and kfc) to pick up various alcohol and food in order to chill in my garden.

So now at 2am, I have just finished kicking everyone out of my house, packed the nintendo wii away (what is it with drunk people wanting to play on that thing - tho it was fun!) and am clearing up the last few empty bottles and cans. So it is now clear that a quiet one never really happend with my friends - just ask the neighbours who were (un)lucky enough to overhear our conversations.

Anyway, that is all i really have to blog about - nothing exciting. But I wasn't tired enough to go to sleep yet so needed something to do.

Make sure you all tune in to the show on tuesday (9 till 11pm). Not that we've got much planned yet. Probably should get onto that - though I did find some music earlier that I want to play. Oh, and I really will do the podcast from last weeks show tomorrow.

Friday afternoon show and Comedy night

2009-06-13T00:54:00.002+01:00

The show was very enjoyable and I'll be podcasting Mr Wimbles in depth report of the Lydd Airport extension position in the next couple of days.

The comedy night was ok although I'm not a great fan of comedy clubs but Liz tempted me up to the Village Hotel Maidstone with the promise of free food which was duly served in the form of a Chicken burger with chips and Coleslaw. I had said that we would have a go in the swimming pool complex but forgot to take my swim stuff so that will have to wait until next time.

That's it really. I have posted a pic of the journey home.

Yesterdays show

2009-06-10T23:23:00.004+01:00

Anyone who listened to the show yesterday would have heard the legend Comedy George appearing as this weeks Karaoke King! George performed YMCA, and as soon as I get a chance I will add his performance to the media player on the blog and the podcats section of the RMFM website. So keep an eye out for that. Also, a podcast of the show is on its way too, between Shax and myself we will be selecting the best bits from the show and uploading it so as you can listen again (god knows why) or listen for the first time if you missed it.

Tuesdays show also featured our trip to a new museum about dr syn (well sort of), lots of mayhem, and us trying to solve listeners problems. Which leads me on nicely to give you an update on the ongoing war between Mr W of the breakfast show and ourselves! I don't want to go into it in too much detail here, but let's just say Wimble stitched me up good and proper on his breakfast show this morning (it has been podcasted on rmfm if you want to listen), and although it was funny I am now looking to get my own back again! This might well happen on Friday afternoon when Me and Shax are standing in for Simon Collins. So make sure you tune in then too (between 3 and 5pm), regular listeners to our evening show should note that it won't be quite as rude as usual....well....

Oh, and if anyone is wondering what this picture is about - George is a right joker (as you are probably aware!) and likes to get up to mischief so when he climbed into a cardboard box in my dads shop the other day we quickly shut him in and taped it up! Not cruel at all i promise you, he enjoyed every second....right George???

New Sketch

2009-06-09T01:09:00.002+01:00

We have finished the sketch for the show tomorrow. It's about Dr Syn. We will be playing it around 21-30 so tune in and find out what mischief we manage to get up to out on the Marsh.

Hope you're liking the Blogs. Liz and I are getting the hang of adding stuff to them now and will continue to do so as we get stuff out.

We hope you can all join us for the show tomorrow night.

Goodnight and sleep tight.

Liz's weekend so far!

2009-06-07T10:35:00.002+01:00

Well it seems that I missed out on a good night at the Ship Hotel in New Romney! I can't believe I didn't get to see the fully monty - im devestated! I shall probably be going along to a RMFM boogie nigth soon - don't forget they are every friday...so get yourselves down there!

The reason I couldn't make it was that I went to a friends 18th at 'the bar below' in folkestone. I actually only meant to pop in for a little while - wish the bday boy well, buy him a drink, catch up with some people and be home by half 11 tucked up in bed to prepare myself for the rest of the busy party weekend. However, a few shorts and a shot of sambucca later I was heading to the priz. Big mistake. 3 hours and about £15 later I was stumbling out of a taxi into my house. I awoke on saturday morning to the sound of my mobile phone at about 8.30am and felt like I was about to die.

Anyway, a couple of hours, a shower and a few headache tablets later I was driving up the A20 to Sellinge festival with my friend Ellen. I won't go into details of my day as I want to talk about it on Tuesday's show - but the outcome is that I'm now home and am hangover free, but very tired as ended up staying in the campsite - where getting a good nights sleep is impossible! Was a very good night though!

Anyway, enough ramblings from me about my drunken antics (Romney Marsh FM encourages you to drink responsibly) though if you are interested in any more I will be giving a little review of the fest on tues' show.

Shax at The Ship

2009-06-06T11:58:00.003+01:00

I did the RMFM disco at the Ship New Romney last night and would like to say Hi to some lovely people I met there. Jellybean, 'Nice smelly hair and neck' (don't ask), the Blonde with the long legs and their Posse who were out rockin it up. Also to the lads who did the, NEARLY, full monty You Can Keep Your Hat On. It was quality guys, especially the blonde tanned one. Not that I would you understand as I don't bat for that side but I can see how the ladies would. Good job Liz wasn't there. Also hi to the Bar Crew who were brilliant and did a great routine to Gina Gee's "Oo Ah Just A Little Bit". It had to be seen to be believed and while they served peeps as well. Quite brilliant.

This Tuesday on the show Liz and I thought we'd have a go at sorting peoples problems out. Now, we're not experts at anything but are willing to try to help people with whatever problems they have. These can be either physical or psychological. How hard can it be?. Therapists make big bucks for doing this stuff so Liz and I thought we'de have a go and for free. Now, we would like some problems before the show so we can do a bit of research so if you private message me on the facebook group or our twitter page, Liz and I will have a go at sorting your problems out for you.

Right, there's the dinner bell so I'm off now after which I am playing tennis. So I wish you all a brilliant weekend and I'll catch you on the airwaves on Tuesday at 9 in the evening.

Best Bits

2009-06-05T10:41:00.005+01:00

Update for you all.

In case you missed any of the show on Tuesday I have now uploaded a couple of the best bits to the RMFM website. Follow this link and it will take you to the podcasts page. There you will find a host of recordings, including King of Karaoke David Wimble and mine and Shax's trip to The Romney Marsh Swing Night.

Once I get hold of a full recording of the show (Shax is supposed to be sorting it out....) I will podcast a few more bits.

That's all for now

Liz xxx

p.s. oh, and a quick plug for Mr W's webpage as I've spent so much time and effort helping him get what he wants on there! Here it is

Liz's turn to talk about Dinner at the Ship Inn Dymchurch!

2009-06-03T10:23:00.008+01:00

Hiya guys,

As you can see from Shax's previous blogs we went to the Ship Inn dymchurch last night for a meal before our radio show.
We were looked after fantastically by the staff - who were wonderful...very friendly and helpful.

The food was also brilliant. As you can see by the photos they stacked my chips up like jenga. Which we thought was very cute. My pudding was also amazing! All chocolate with more chocolate and some strawberry. Oh, and I had pinot grigio - which is my favourite wine. So I was all smiles :D and a little bit over-excited for our first radio show.

There is a more thorough review below courtesy of shax, who made notes throughout the meal (I wonder if he always does that) so please check that out. But I would certainly recommend the Ship Inn as a great place to go out for a meal on the Marsh. So a big thanks once again to Niko and all at the ship for having us along.

As for the show itself - It was quite a success (even if I say so myself). Apart from one slight technical issue which seemed to happen as soon as I sat in the chair (I did say I didn't want to press the buttons) it went swimmingly. Our Marsh Swing Club was enjoyed by all, and If you missed it I am going to try and upload it to the website as a podcast today. Will give you an update when it's done :)

Dinner at the Ship Inn and the first Show

2009-06-03T01:02:00.007+01:00

I just did a massive blog and tried to edit it and it has disappeared GRRRRRRR!!!!!!!!

Liz and I went to the Ship Inn Dymchurch to do a restaurant revue. It was brilliant. Check out their website for more details Liz had Posh Fish and Chips whilst I plummped for The Reverend Barham’s tender fresh breast of chicken baked with Italian Parma ham and Swiss Emmental cheese with a tangy tomato, pepper, red onion and garlic sauce, served with sauté potatoes and a rocket and tomato garnish. It was fantastic. we recommend it to everyone. For afters I had Cheesecake. For liz, Sweet as Syn, warm homemade rich chocolate fondant served with a white chocolate sauce, reflecting the wildly differing characters of Christopher Syn, whiter than white by day and rich dark and mysterious by night. The staff were fantastic as well. (see above) Natalie, Emma, Clair, Jess, Shane and Elaine. A big thanks to Niko and Rachel the proud proprietors. The Inn is themed on the Dr Synn character from the novels of Russell Thorndike.

The show went well with the karaoke king feature causing much amusment. It was of course our very own breakfast show's Mr.W. Liz had recorded his catastrophic version of Handbags & Gladrags at a recent open mic night on her phone. For those who missed it, I will get Liz to podcast it at www.romneymarsh.fm for all who want it. The spoof night out at Swinging On The Marsh also went well with our, obvious, acting skills widely recognised by our many listeners.

Liz and I look forward to shareing the airwaves with you all once again next week.

Over and Out for now. My bed is calling.

The plan

2009-05-27T23:20:00.002+01:00

I do have a plan to get Popey singing but it could end up in my demise so I will have to be careful. I can't believe we haven't had any takers for the karaoke feature. I am a tad disappointed but hey ho the show will go on anyway. i can see us doing it by the seat of our pants as usual which is probs best anyway. i am however looking forward to the free meals thingy which sounds like a good deal to me.

Talking about meals, which I do with boring regularity, I feel it my duty to warn you if you are ever shopping in a certain, very famous, supermarket, VERY famous, for Sgabetti bolocknase, never never never choose the very very very cheap one over the £2-50 one. Why? I here you ask. Because if you choose the REALLY cheap one, you stand a very good chance of Mr "Sqirty Bottom" paying you a visit. You would be wise to heed my warning.

This rubbish weather is due to get better tomorrow. I hope so. I have lost two days tennis as it is so I'm hoping for a game tomorrow and again on Sat which is supposed to be REALLY hot and sunny.

So, only six more sleeps before the Popemeister and myself are back on the airwaves. I look forward to Stalking to you then and receiving your emails and Txts.

Over and Out for now. (apparently, that's wireless lingo)

Shax

Get me singing?! In your dreams!

2009-05-26T22:49:00.002+01:00

So there's this worst/best karaoke competition which we are going to run on the show and Shax thought it was a great idea for him to kick it off and record himself singing Angels, however he seems to have got slightly cold feet and is trying to make me sing with him. This is not going to happen. He says he has a plan that will mean I will have to sing - I dread to think what this plan involves, but will do my utmost not to be fooled. (However should the plan involve vodka i don't have a hope in hell!)

Speaking of recordings there are two very good (maybe the word is funny) videos of Mr w (from the breakfast show) performing Maggie May and Handbags and Gladrags (also featuring shax on the drums). It's well worth a watch. The videos are on facebook, and I will upload the links to here later on for you all to enjoy!

I've just looked at the clock and realised that this time in a week the first show will be live! How exciting. That also reminds me that I need to finalise our free meal that I've been trying to get for before the show, so that we can do a review of a Marsh restaurant. Yet another thing for me to sort this week! So listen out for that next week too.

Anyway, I'm considering an early night. Am off to London tomorrow afternoon/evening to see Maximo Park so won't be home till late, so sleeping now is probably a good idea.

Popey xxx

p.s. please give me a call at the station if you want to do the karaoke thing....(un)surprisingly haven't had (m)any people come forward yet! (tel 01797 362000)

Shax Is Finally Up

2009-05-24T12:40:00.002+01:00

Bank holiday Sunday. The weather is warm and sunny. I have finally arisen from my pit after a surprisingly busy night dj'ing at Bar Academy & Rivals.

Liz and I have come up with a worst Karaoke singer competition for the forthcoming radio show and I have foolishly offered to go first with my rendition of Angels which is truly truly awful. I have no concept of pitch or key so it might well be worth tuning in to hear as I am possibly the SECOND worst singer in the universe!. Who is the worst? I hear you cry. Well, I have no idea but surly there must be one somewhere!!!!!!!! Actually, I am wondering just how good Popey is. Mmm now there's a thought!

I am off to a party this afternoon to celebrate a friends BDay with the rest of the Hythe tennis club crew so I wish you a fantastic bank holiday!!!

Shax is contemplating an early night!!!!

Back from the Frenchman pub... Live band were a blues band. I knew it wasn't for me when I felt my eyes closing to the delightful strains of "since I lost My baby" for the umpteenth time. There are only so many ways of doing a twelve bar before it becomes unbearable. Just my opinion you understand. Shout if you think different. I will not be including any blues stuff on the show.
Time for bed.............Anyone? Ok. Night then !!!

Pope gets in early on a friday night!

Well im just back from the pub ("with shax?" i hear you say....no with the girls), and have had a couple of pints of that strong cider stuff which they serve in chambers (another fstone place, for anyone who doesnt know).

Anyway, I'm very excited about the radio starting again. Not that it's stopped - you can listen online 24 hours a day, 365 days a year.....but it isnt quite the same as when we are on FM. Something a little bit special about being able to listen so easily in your car, or at work. Or in the bath. do you have one of those little shower radios? i do. they are well good. drowns the sound of my singing out. anyway....radio...yes...erm. tuesdays 9 till 11 is mine and shax's show and as he said on his earlier blog it will be mayhem! we have no idea what's will be going on. our radio planning session involved too much alcohol and we got very little done. though what we did do was tres amusing (even if i say so myself).

one feature i can promise is our food review. before each of the shows we are going to go for dinner and review the marsh restaurant which we went to! i've got a couple of places lined up, but if you happen to know of a local restuarant or food serving pub which would like to give us a free meal in return for masses of plugs on our show then let me know.

right im going back to facebook now. speak to you all very soon. and hope you like the blog!

Hi

2009-05-22T19:59:00.000+01:00

Hi I'm Dave Shax. I will be co-hosting with Liz Pope on a show called 'Mayhem with Liz & Shax' which will include some serious mischief making every Tuesday night from 9 till 11 on 87.8 Romney Marsh Fm starting Tuesday the 2nd June 2009. Also online at www.romneymarsh.fm

Friday 22nd May,

Today i am feeling great with no trace of a hangover.... strike!!!!!

Popey and I got our heads together last night (yes, just our heads) and recorded some stuff for the forthcoming Liz n Shax show on Tuesday evenings. Much Pino Greasio was drunk plus a little vodka after which the evening's work quickly descended into the usual chaos that occurs when Liz & myself indulge in too much alcohol(She is such a bad influence on me). However the resulting sketch and teaser made us both laugh muchly. We look forward to airing the results on our first show on Tue the 2nd June

We also had a chinese takeaway to help lessen the effects of the Pino Greaseo. I have just done the washing up and boy does that sweet & sour sauce take some shifting!!! No seriously, it took a hammer and chisel to get the stuff off the plates and cuttlery. Just think what it does to your stomach?.

Anyway, I'm off to the 'Frenchman' now to see a live band. (The Frenchman is a pub here in Folkestone for those that are not familiar with the town).

Please join our facebook group as well and feel free to blog away either here or there.

Stand By, Hold Tight.....

Shax
