It's snowing! Didn't need facebook this time. My phone has it's snowman feature on to let me know. Only problem with this is it's not snowing. The snowman's been a permanent fixture on my phone for the last five days, apart from yesterday when it was snowing. Cloudy with sunny intervals according to my phone.

It's systematic of the current relationship I'm having with the phone. I missed the show yesterday due to my alarm not going off. Now my phone insists it did go off and I just slept through it. Neither of us is budging on this and our relationship has stooped to mutual mistrust. Don't think we'll ever get it back. On Valentine's Day too. So sad.

I have to admit I caved in to the Valentine's thing. Was always gonna play a song on the radio for Cherry Blossom but did the whole card and chocolates thing too. Just as well. Had a boatload of heart shaped shortbread covered in chocolate waiting for me when I got in. The guilt if I hadn't bought owt might almost have stopped me eating them. Oh and CB got me Kate Bush for Valentine's as well. Now that is love!

Had the pleasure of Mr. Mark Kelly's company on today's show. As I've said before we do like a gossip. So much so that I played about ten less songs than I normally would because of us yapping. Fun though. And I think we nailed the intro to Kraftwerk's The Model.

I do miss having a co-host to bounce off. And believe me there's no-one more bouncy than Mark. It's not as easy as just putting two people in the same room though. There has to be a connection. Me and Mark get each other even though he's wrong about so many things. He's a Wednesday fan for a start. At the same time though I also like being my own boss and playing what I want. As I said to someone on twitter last year if you want Bieber played get your own radio show.

Gotta dash. Shortbread to eat. Tomorrow's blog could be a late one. Having a day out. No idea where. North is all I've been told.

Good.
