The Afternoon Show

It's a sad time for me today, as our lovely little dog, Holly, has to be put to sleep later this afternoon.

So, today's show is a miserable walk through some slushy and romantic songs about loss, friendship and being alone.

So, if you fancy wallowing in grief with me, please do join us.

2pm - 3pm

This show will appear on the Loop-Back.

Locked and Loaded

Hi There -

Yes, I'm all set for tonight's show. It's going to be a really simple format tonight:

Lots and lots of great music, and me chatting away a bit.

Please do tune in at 10pm and join me, otherwise it gets very lonely.

So, no themes, no gimmicks, no competitions, nothing fancy. Just a nice relaxing night with the radio.

See you there.

Andy.

Daytime Show

Hi Folks -

I'm going to go ahead and try a daytime show and see how it works out. Let's hope the phone doesn't ring at the wrong time!

So - if you fancy listening to me give it my best shot - have a listen at 2pm today, Friday.

Might even be fun...

Wednesday 20th July - Fish

Hi Folks - a great show tonight, I hope.

The theme, is fish - do with it what you like.  :)

We're playing now, join us!

Wednesday 13th July - POEMS on Soap and Cleaning

From Andy Curtis:

A way cool washing machine
With a smashing flashing light
No matter what colour they started
All the clothes came out white.

From Karrie Hall:

Whilst playing in the bath I suddenly lost the soap
Despite my frantic fiddling it was gone beyond a hope
I searched for it behind the taps and all along the tray
But the blasted thing had buggered off to soap-land, far away.

Excitement - High

Yes, folks, we're back tonight, after two weeks of relative silence - and, hopefully, better than ever.

We have the new broadband sound quality for you to enjoy and lots of great music.

Add in Beckie's last four 16 Finest - the Soap theme tracks, Fiona's classy cuts and the phrase maze!

It's /all/ good.

The theme is SOAP - and getting washed and being clean, that sort of thing. So let's have some poems. Either reply to this posting, or send email to:

There's been some awful things happening in the news recently - why not take some time to simply chill out, and remember that life isn't so bad?

Modem Link

OK, folks, we have just three slots on the modem server available - grab them while they're hot.

Sneaky little show...

Saturday 9th July - 11pm

There will be a 90 minute show to test out the new broadcast system.

Music and chat with me, Andy Curtis.

Feel free to give the new broadband service a test. :)

Louder - and Prouder!

Of course, I have no sensible or well thought out justification of my claim of “louder”. This has everything to do with the volume level which you, the listener/s, choose to select.

That said, we're certainly prouder. Oh yes.

So what's happened?  Well, while I have been away doing interesting and exciting things in other parts of the country, changes have been afoot. As a result, I am delighted to announce that we have a brand new broadband feed in place and working beautifully. So, if you have broadband, follow the link from the front page of the web site and you'll soon be listening to AD-LIB Radio at near CD quality.

To hear the new service right now, click HERE. As usual, when there is no live programme running, there will be a loop-back reel of previous shows.

Of course, this move is sure to annoy our modem listeners, and I do apologise to them most profusely. However, all is not lost. For modem users, when the live shows are running there will be the original modem-compatible feed available. If you use a modem to connect to the internet and need to use this feed, please email me and I will send you the link - we have limited bandwidth on this stream, so please use the broadband connection if you can.

Don't forget - the station will be back LIVE again on Wednesday 13th July, and we have a BUMPER show planned. Lots of great music (of course), Phrase Maze, Poems, 16 Finest, Me playing the piano and the fantastic theme of:  SOAP!

So, start writing your poems about soap and washing - or send in any stories relating to that subject and I'll read 'em out on air.

I'm looking forward to being back in the DJ's chair so much!  See you on the 13th at 10pm?

I hope so.
