 Bad Kids

Captions?...

The recent BFBS Bak 2 Skool nite all in aid of the 'Big Salute 2008' produced some interesting images, and as they say (whoever they are), every picture tells a story!

 Homies Chillin'

And check out Ann... this was the moment she found out she'd won the Paper, Scissors, Stone battle with Lin...

 I WON!!!

 

 

     BAD CLOTHING INCLUDES...

                       Jumpers

On the Breakfast Show we've recently been talking about these 2 loons who've had their deceased pets made into jumpers. Well, not literally, but after they passed away, they went round the house and collected all their hairs and made jumpers for themselves. We've been asking you what should you never be seen in... the ultimate bad clothing. Here's a few that you came up with...

Hammer pants (Jon), Shellsuits (Karen at Eurotowers), Leopard skin speedos (Aidy) Loon pants (Sheila), Beige slacks (Mal at Main Street), Platform Shoes (Kim), Christmas Jumpers (Robin), Gale Platt's shirts (Lynne at Europa), reality TV stars clothing (Rosie), and thanks to Mal on his bus who revealed that it is bad, but he likes to wear a nice thong on the beach. Run for your lives!!

By the way... do you think the guy above could be Mario in about 30 years time?... Check it out (we've tweaked the pictures slightly to show you where we're coming from with this one)...

NATALIE CASSIDY'S 'THEN & NOW'

Natalie, better known as trumpet-blowing Sonia from Eastenders who's new husband ran over her old one has brought out a new workout DVD. On the Breakfast Show, I've been talking about how I think she looks exactly the same both then and now... and finally here's the front cover to show you...

And below... I've decided to release my own Then & Now work out DVD. The PTIs will be proud of me. Wobble out the door to get your copy now!

We made it!

Mike did it... he and tour guide, Pete Jackson, took a group into the World War 2 tunnels to spend Hallowe'en night looking for spooky goings on - and yes, things did happen! Strange noises, mobiles turning themselves off, lights falling and spinning signs! CLICK HERE TO HEAR a sample of what happened on the night, and check out the pictures below for a taster of the place.

Mike with a deranged competition winner.

Only kidding, Mike and his cousin Dan thought it'd be amusing to wear their sunglasses upside down while out for a meal.

Yes, they really do look this simple.
