]]> Friday the 9th of December saw a Christmas Market descend on PJ hall in main arts with over 70 stalls being run by over 130 students.  Storm were there, broadcasting live from the event, and we got the chance to speak to people from societies running stalls and curious students looking for potential Christmas gifts.  Hear some of the chat on the player below…

]]> On Monday’s Skive Time we talked Oscars (reading the posts below this one is a must!), research that says facebook causes students stress and Bobby McFerrin’s 1988 classic Don’t worry be happy received a lot of love on the texts and emails when we played it as our 80s bit.

Best line of the song is… “The land lord says your rent is late, he may have to litigate”. Tune!

We also played the brand new radio competition, “What did I jump on in the production room?” Fairly self explanatory :p The audio is below.

]]> Hello it’s Cam here, last night on my Monday night bizzle I played “Pin the tail on the Donkey, on the radio”.  What a game it was!  Robin and Ali from flash back stayed after their show to play it and my guest for the show this week, Freddie, commentated in the style of a Darts commentator.  It made some interesting radio, whether it was actually any good or not was a different matter entirely!   Have a listen below and make up your own mind…
