Mornings on BFBS Radio

Fast Cars...for a man even shirter than Top Gears' Richard Hammond

Some say he has no fear, has the strength of eighteen olympic trained hedgehogs and owns a 4-litre lawn mower that can cvruise at 60 k.p.h. All we know is that he's shorter than Top Gear's Richard Hammond and less well proportioned. Tune into Anthony every morning on BFBS Radio.

L to R: Annie, Row and Anthony

 

Does anyone remember when school uniforms used to include shirt, tie, smart trousers and blazer, now anything goes!

Anthony on his ride

Anthony is really proud of the old Honda Shadow he has.

In fairness, it's the only bike that he can get his leg over, yet still has to wear platform shoes to touch the tarmac.

This seems to have inspired some of you to send in your biking photos.

Of course, if yours is bigger than our hero's, there's no guarantee it'll make our pages!

 

One Second Song

Win er' hum....Stuff.

Be proud to win....stuff??

Everyday Anthony chops a second, or thereabouts from a well known song and you have to guess what it is.

Guess what the tune is and you could be the proud owner of some stuff Anthony has found in the back of an old cupboard that he is fobbing off as a prize!
