Hi Andy,

Many thanks for all you have done this year, and all the best to you and your family for a Happy, Healthy and Safe New Year.

Please pass on my best wishes to all on Jokers Wild, and I will do my utmost to keep the jokes coming.

Thanks Baz. Same to you and yours….Andy

Found out this morning that East Coast FM is to resume it’s programming from Monday 4th. January.

So I’ll be back next Saturday the 9th. at 4.00 p.m. as usual with A.M. in the P.M. and the Golden Oldies Show and will keep the spot indefinately.

However we will be only broadcasting via the Internet until we are granted a full licence.

So this is where I am asking for your help – please!

We need as many people as possible to email OFCOM and plead for our cause. We need support from the masses and you could help by just sending an email to

communityradio@ofcom.org.uk ….. telling them what you think of the Station and ask (beg) them to grant us a licence.

OK, I appreciate that most of you are not in the FM listening area – but they do not know that!

And when (if) we get the licence we will be able to upgrade things such as signal strength and produce better programmes.

Your help really would be appreciated.

Cheers,

Andy

…From Big John on Mull (UK)

George Bush has a heart attack and dies. Obviously he goes to hell, where the Devil is waiting for him.

‘I’m not sure what to do,’ says the Devil. ‘You’re on my list, but I have no room for you. As you definitely have to stay here, I’m going to have to let someone else go. I’ve got three folks here who weren’t quite as bad as you. I’ll let one of them go, but you have to take their place. I’ll even let you decide who leaves.’

George thought that sounded pretty good, so he agreed.

The Devil opened the first room. In it were Richard Nixon and a large pool of hot water. He kept diving in and climbing out, over and over. Such was his fate in hell.
‘No!’ said George. ‘I don’t think so, I’m not a good swimmer and don’t think I could stay in hot water all day.’

The Devil led him to the next room. In it was Tony Blair with a sledgehammer and a room full of rocks. All he did was swing the hammer, time after time.
‘ No! I’ve got this problem with my shoulder. I would be in constant agony if all I could do was break rocks all day.’ commented George.

The Devil opened the third door. In it, George saw Bill Clinton lying on the floor with his arms staked over his head, and his legs staked in a spread-eagle pose. Bent over him was Monica Lewinsky, doing what she does best.

George Bush looked at this in disbelief for a while, and finally said ‘Yeah, I can handle this.’

The Devil smiled and said, ‘OK, Monica, you’re free to go!’

…From Baz in Dronfield (UK)

Five surgeons are discussing who were the best patients to operate on.

The first surgeon says, ‘I like to see Accountants on my operating table because when you open them up, everything inside is numbered.’

The second responds, ‘Yeah, but you should try Electricians! Everything inside them is colour-coded.’

The third surgeon says, ‘No, I really think Librarians are the best; everything inside them is in alphabetical order.’

The fourth surgeon chimes in, ‘You know I like Construction Workers. Those guys always understand when you have a few parts left over at the end, and when the job takes longer than you said it would.’

But the fifth surgeon shut them all up when he observed, ‘You’re all wrong. Politicians are the easiest to operate on. There’s no guts, no heart, no balls, no brains, no spine and there are only two moving parts – the mouth and the arsehole – and they are interchangeable’

For those of you closely following my career with East Coast FM, yesterday was perhaps my last broadcast. The station turns off its FM tonight at midnight and will continue to broadcast only via the Web. This won’t make much of a difference to most of you as I know you listen on your computers anyway.

Well although the broadcasts will continue, it is not clear whether or not the programming will.

I have ‘volunteered’ to carry on but an executive decision is to be made next week as to what will be broadcast and whether there will be any presenters involved.

An application for a full 5 year licence has been submitted and the signs are excellent that we will get it.

When I came out of the studio last night, it had snowed again so I had to stay put with a few friends and a drink or two.

We weren’t bothered though and just got on with it.

… From Peter in Ruby Bay (NZ)

A man is stumbling through the woods, totally drunk, when he comes upon a preacher baptising people in the river. He proceeds to walk into the water and subsequently bumps into the preacher. The preacher turns around and is almost overcome by the smell of alcohol, whereupon he asks the drunk, ‘Are you ready to find Jesus?’

The drunk shouts, ‘Yes, oi am.’

So the preacher grabs him and dunks him in the water. He pulls him up and asks the drunk, ‘Brother, have you found Jesus?’

The drunk replies, ‘No, oi haven’t found Jesus.’

The preacher shocked at the answer, dunks him into the water again for a little longer. He again pulls him out of the water and asks again, ‘Have you found Jesus me brother?’

The drunk again answers, ‘No, oi haven’t found Jesus..’

By this time the preacher is at his wits end and dunks the drunk in the water again — but this time holds him down for about 30 seconds and when he begins kicking his arms and legs he pulls him up. The preacher again asks the drunk, ‘For the love of God – have you found Jesus?’

(Are you ready for this????)

The drunk wipes his eyes and catches his breath and says to the preacher………………….’Are you sure dis is where he fell in…?

In Memoriam
With all the sadness and trauma going on in the world at the moment, it is worth reflecting on the death of a very important person, which almost went unnoticed last week.
Larry LaPrise, the man who wrote “The Hokey Pokey”, died peacefully at age 93.
The most traumatic part for his family was getting him into the coffin. They put his left leg in. And then the trouble started.

I LOVE COOKING WITH WINE
Sometimes I even put it in the food.

Money isn’t everything, but it sure keeps the kids in touch.

Reality is only an illusion that occurs due to a lack of alcohol.

Corduroy pillows are making headlines!

I want to die while asleep like my grandfather, not screaming in terror like the passengers in his car.
