does the radio count?
tragically as a pop-obsessed teenager, i was on long wave radio atlantic 252, for those who remember it, twice. the first time i won a CD for being able to sing the "lipsmacking thirstquenching" pepsi thing, and the second time, to my shame, i'd rung in to leave a quote that they then played on their between-shows jingle.



oh, and all those times i was angelina jolie*'s body double, until she got paranoid about me and had me fired, clearly.

* angelina jolie, caroline quentin, whatever.

*does not like Caroline Quentin*
And having seen a photo of la Swipe, I'd say you're much closer to Angelina than her.

Blimey
That just trudged up some memories, used to prefer that station to CFM. Can't remember the jingle nor the quote though.

Ah well

LWRA252!!!
many a year ago the local education authority saw fit to not upgrade our school bus to FM radio. Once Radio 1 shut down on MW, our only refuge was Atlantic 252. Crazy station, sh*t reception, but we all loved it. Passed many youth *ahem* "milestones" with that station on.

I suddenly feel very old...
Wasn't atlantic 252 the one where the DJs all had ridiculous names?
