Apparently I'm still on for the BBC Radio 5 US versus UK debate, and it seems I am up against Mike from Postcards from Across the Pond. It's my fault really, as I gave them his name.
There's only one little detail that's making me nervous - he is referring to the debate as being today, yet my discussions with the producer were all about Tuesday. I am going to sit tight till I get this sorted out.
Oh and another thing - they're sending a cab for him to take him to the Southern Counties studios. What am I - chopped liver?
Good luck. I'm sure you'll both do well.
ReplyDeleteGood luck expatmum! I'll try and listen in if I'm awake then and listen to the replay. Can't wait! Good luck...to you and to Mike H - you'll be fine. Hxx
ReplyDeletePS: The studios sound a lot better than the smelly closet. You and FFF seem to have a chord there :)
"struck a chord"....aggh!
ReplyDeleteGood luck!!!!
ReplyDeleteMake sure your wear your lucky "mom" pants!!!
LMAO that it's Mike! THis I have to hear so please confirm when it's broadcast time is so I can catch it online later....good luck!
ReplyDeleteGreat! Two expat Bloggy friends on the radio!! I can't wait to hear this!
ReplyDeleteAll the very best of luck and make sure you get a home-run for the U.K.!! X
Oh yes, get your mom pants on.
ReplyDeleteLooking forward to listening.
Now that should be really interesting, I am going to listen in, can we call in with questions?
ReplyDeleteApparently you can call in. It's on at midnight Tuesday into Wed in the UK (because we're such big celebs) and 6pm Central time here. Then there's the Listen Later button on the web site.
ReplyDeleteNo clever comments! I think Mike's been doing quite a bit of homework already!
Wow! Can't wait to hear all about this!
ReplyDeleteBest of luck. Wear your Stig outfit - that way if you decide to stay silent and impenatrable they won't be surprised... (though with it's being radio, perhaps it might lose a little of it's comic impact)
ReplyDeleteBuggar, did I miss it?
ReplyDeleteGood luck! I will be doing the listen later option, as midnight is just too late when one's little treasures are currently awake at 5.45am...
ReplyDeleteIt's tonight, ie. Tuesday midnight, going into Wednesday. Who knew there could be so much confusion over the term Tuessday at midnight!

ReplyDeleteHow exciting. Have been catching up and laughing at your geordie language and your Mom pants etc (I know that one exactly - I had it from my Daughter years ago!). Anyway, I will be listening tonight as it's perfect timing for sitting up in bed reading. Also have been watching the ceremony today. It must be very exciting indeed to be there in the U.S.of A.
ReplyDeleteAn historic moment. M xx
Good luck! I'll have to look out for this..
ReplyDeleteWell, Mike and I did get a bit of a word in, but not much!!!
ReplyDeleteI'll have to "listen again" --can't believe I missed it but was so caught up in the Obama moment. Can you put a link on your website?
ReplyDeleteThe Listen Again button doesn't seem to link to the US/UK debate. Oh well.
