Mad About The Boys...
Following yesterday’s renunciation of records I cant wait to get back on air tonight for loadsamusic day. Thanks to everyone who commented on the show and contributed with their stories. I think it’s fair to say that No Music divided our audience. It’s worth taking a look at some of the comments posted on the Scotland’s Music site.
The good news us that the bosses here at ³ÉÈË¿ìÊÖ Scotland have been left in no doubt about what a big part music plays in the station’s output, and how much our audience miss it when it’s taken away.
It's back to normal tonight with ‘boy’s names’ and there have been some cracking suggestions so far.
When we did 'Girl's names' at the month, The Perry family sent a wonderful e-mail covering the entire alphabet. They've been back in touch this afternoon with another great list and to say: "The A – Z of girls names we compiled a few weeks ago may have set a challenge that others will try and meet for boys’ names."
They were right! Rab Murray and clan in Moffat have been on the e-mail with their Boys A-Z. It's fab and will hopefully inspire you to come up with some of your own for tonight's show.
