Tomorrow its '8 maids a milking' and while most of you will probably just go the fridge to get your milk, I want to know what you will be doing during the show and what songs best describes it. Is it Drive or relax? Put me in the picture tomorrow night...

Most contrived or what? Its not even contrived.
Is this still a McCafferty's theme suggestion? (We were never told. I remember the day when you could ask a question and get a reply from a producer or BB himsel!). If it is, then I would have expected a bit more imagination than this from a man who can produce two pages of requests a night.
Happy Birthday Norrie!! Hope you, Mars and Mean have guid nicht oot.

Now me, I'm not petty enough to remark that I had 3 songs played last week, none of which was credited. I wouldn't dream of making a fuss about that, it's satisfaction enough for me to hear the songs being played on the Patrick McCafferty show.

If I'm not battling my way through winds or cooking the tea, I might very well be thinking of doing some tidying, hoovering, dusting etc (granted it's not the same sort of cleaning-up Aimee's singing about). Then I'll probably pour a glass of wine and think some more about it...

In the interests of fair play, though - Thing-Fish definitely didn't request Cliff. That was a sleekit trick played by the GIO team.
Sadly for Thing-Fish his choices are all on the GIO banned band list.
