Blasting Off To Reading

My visit to Reading and Blast 1386 went well and it's the first time I've been to the main city itself. Myself and Stephen arrived at TVU about 15 minutes before we were on air and they've got rather modern facilities and it looks as if everythings well looked after at all times.

The show itself went well and I enjoyed having the selection of music in the second hour which included Light Of The World, Swing Out Sister and the Kyoto Jazz Massive.
We even got an e-mail from my dad who was listening in the garden back at home so I'd imagine it's a bit more brighter in Canterbury than it was in Reading and London.
Stephen and myself in between also had a chat in between links about all the ITV channels going off air which I didn't see, but Stephen and his girlfriend did and apparently it lasted for about 6 hours in the London area.
I'd imagine it proves a point of a few things about the station and it's many hiccups that it's had over the last few years both on and off screen.

As for tonight Michael's having his 19th birthday do in the form of a buffet, although I'll finish off the chilli I saved from last night before things start. I also need to buy some booze as well so I'd imagine Red Russians will do the job.
