In This Week's Playlist :-

 
Well...did ya miss me? I gather from some of the emails my faithful manservant mr. Kenneth has passed onto moi that many of you have been fretting your precious low-fi hearts out...muchos thanx *mwah* but your favourite radiomistress is back and feeling deliciously ga-ga gaROOVY...hope you all are too :) A few updates - 1. as requested I've included a track listing on the site so y'all know what that fabbo audio track is that is making you smile or shimmy so hard - 2. I've had a harsh word to mr.Kenneth about earning his keep and under duress - read tongue lashing - he's agreed to introduce each show from now on so be my guest to salivate over his dulcet tones...just remember to wipe down those surfaces darls... - 3. radioShirley will be broadcasting a little infrequently for a while...this was the trade-off with said difficult manservant ...mind you la Shirl has sooooooo many gorgeous Aquarians in her listening orbit that over the next few weeks prepare for Birthday Show Overdrive and a fresh new coat of paint on the site!!!

Speaking of gorgeous Aquarians, this week's show is dedicated to mr. Etch a Sketch himself, the lovely Benedict Foley who is my absolute favourite 9 volt battery on the tongue kind of guy...gotta love that curiousity....hehe....Ben sent in his own "brief" believe it or not and mr. Kenneth was doing his best to get a feel for what Ben may have had in my mind....until I threw my feather boa down and had a hissy fit over mr. Kenneth's programming....it's so hard to get good knob twiddling help these days...so yours truly sent the recalcitrant minx away to sway in a dark corner mumbling "no more Abba yabba dabba dabba" while I went to work and sassed the show up some! A special treat featured throughout this week's show Shirleyphiles...I've discovered the singing Lunch Lady, Sharon Adl-Doost!...I kid you not....this beacon of joyous outsider sisterhood rattles off the daily menu for a convalescent hospital in California then wraps the message up with a song or thought for those who dial the number - do it - the joy is worth every cent for an international call - 0011 - 1 - 510 - 7654.

So it's that time again to settle petals or kick back the throw rugs, move the cat out of harms way and brace yourselves for another half hour of low-fi eclectic lovliness! Join moi in wishing the young Ben a wonderous birthday and speedy cure for nappy rash...hehe...I'm in an evil mood tonight...I really am...evil...evil...till next time...remember to take absolute care and play fair!

*smooches* Shirley
