Last week you may have heard listener Mark Tyler discussing his sister's efforts to make him a Christmas present.

"My sister made me a model of Jabba The Hut out of clay, it looks more like a green poo with a face. Jabba the Poo is currently in Essex and I am in Switzerland so please thank my sister Penny Tyler for sending the pictures to me."

It's the Doctor Who of the radio jingle - just when you start to love one version, it morphs into something exciting and new. From the 80's tinged original via the power struggle between 'bin' and trash', to the orchestrated beauty of the three minute version, here are all the Retro Text the Nation jingles for you to download and keep. Many thanks to James Richards for his amazing piano and arrangement skills as well as the amazing new RTTN Orchestra jingle.

Thanks to listener Carys Keig, who emailed us this enlightening nugget: "Dear Adam and Joe, after listening to your show on Saturday I had to send you this picture I took in a public bathroom in Osaka. Riding the toilet like a horse is so impractical it is advised against by the Japanese authorities. Also, as you can see from the diagram standing on it to pee is a bad idea as well. Lots of love and hugs, Carys in Chester xxxxx"

Thanks to everyone who's sent in a fully formed song from the embryonic 'Radio Song' ramblings from a previous show. We hope you can find time listen to them below!

Dear Adam and Joe, On a recent family outing to our loft, I was delighted to find our old record player. On it was a Long Player of The Ramones, recorded live in New York City, New Years eve, 1979. After we pogo'd around the long forgotten toys and Dad's old magazines, to the scatter gun drums and buzz saw guitars - we were amazed to find a hidden bonus track recorded by that little known and very underrated younger brother Adam Ramone. Hope you enjoy it. John Ramone from Epsom.

Hey Adam and Joe, please find enclosed one of my musical chops for you to feast on. I couldn't decide which song to use so I mixed em both up, Ronson-style. Hope you like it., Love you bye, Matt Deeble

Hi Adam Hi Joe, A contribution to your radio song song song. I started by Stretching Joe's first line of "OH" to last 36 seconds long and then had a massive creative block so I switched to Adams song, the results were bizarre. I need some sleep now. Rory Stacey

Dear Adam and Joe, I have attached my remix of Adam's Radio DJ song... I think this version would help it to break into the Scandinavian pop charts. All the best, Alex Plowright (from Derby)

Dear Adam and Joe, I really hope you like this. I've incorporated both of your singy bits onto a musicy bit that sounds a little like the Blankety Blank theme tune. After a couple of hours fiddling with your rather untidy but marvellous vocals and then more hours fitting the music around it I've come up with this little tune. I hope it's not too long. Also, I love Boggins and want to hear more of him. Can we have boggins at the end of a podmax? You can give plenty of warning so that the evil Boggins-haters can turn off without missing the show. Pretty pretty please with a cherry on top. Nigel Hill. xoxoxoxoxoxxxxoooxox SAVE BOGGINS

Hi Adam and Joe, here is my version of your DJ song antics, I've gone down a different route and incorporated both your vocals! Yes, the backing song is a GarageBand track but it sounds funky so who cares. I hope you like it! I call it The DJ Is Cool (The Best In The World). Enjoy! Cheers, Greg Jones, Formby.

Hey there Blog Hoskins!

Many months ago a young man named Tom Carstairs wrote to me asking if he could make a video for my 'This Week in Grazia' song for his A-level media studies course. There's nothing Adam and I like more than feeling self important, so the answer was an immediate and unequivocal YES! Fast forward to RIGHT THIS MOMENT and here is the video that Tom made, with the help of his friends Jess Shields and Emma Jones. Props must also be issued to Tom's media tutor Tristan, who is clearly every bit as brilliant and imaginative as his students. Everyone involved gets a quadruple 1st in Advanced Audio-visual Waffle Studies from the University of Adam and Joe! What an accolade. Congratulations!

For some time now, we have been suggesting that the way to get your record on to the radio is to write a song about being on the radio. Elvis Costello, REM, The Clash and Queen are living proof. Well now you can add Adam and Joe to that superstar list. Here are some examples from a Megadude listener who is so in demand as a producer of Saturday morning waffly radio clips, that we've had to protect their identity. What? Of course we haven't lost their email....

Fancy making your own Adam or Joe song? Then here's the original audio with no backing music - why not make your own and send it in? If we like it we'll play it on the show.

You certainly earned yourselves a nice warm bath Black Squadron. It looks like you had all sorts of fun with the last command. This week's Black Squadron command will now be issued an hour later, that's more than a luxury for you hardened members. So standby this Saturday at 10am...
