G'morning Good People of The Planet

Chris Evans | 09:04 UK time, Monday, 2 November 2009

Alright this is simple, I did more work in my dream last night than I probably will do today...

...including a whole documentary with Sir Tel which I have since suggested to the boss we should do for real as a sort of tribute. I've already seen it and I can tell you it was great.

Off to CBeebies today to narrate their panto - an honour if ever there was one in this silly little industry of ours.

Tomorrow it's Bon Jovi at the Â鶹Éç Radio Theatre, and also this week we will be publishing details of our Bye Bye Drivetime: Hello Breakfast party which will take place at The 02 on Wednesday Dec 23 - our next to last ever Drivetime show.

Further details surfacing in the next 24 hours will be the prize package for the 2010 Drivetime Dine and Disco Children In Need auction prize - there's a huge twist to this year's offer.

Sun beating down here in sunny Berks, goodness knows where all that rain disappeared to overnight, time to live day number 15,000 and whatever it is. X.

    CLP - we really want detials of bye bye drivetime party - I'm holding up organising my birthday celebrations because of it!!!

    Life sounds good for you - very happy to hear it

  • Comment number 4.

    Blinky Blimey guv'nor - that was hard work! Been trying to comment for the last half hour but it wouldn't let me ..... but I'm here now!

    Chris, we are all soooooo excited at the prospect of a Bye Bye Drivetime shindig - can't wait for the details!

    As for dreams, I had a really vivid one last night, and told the person concerned this morning. So, that'll be at least two people smiling all day today then!!

    Stuff to do. Back in a bit.

    Blimey O'Crikey. Have just bin' interrogated by me own lap-top thingy tellin' me to bugger off as am not registered. By the crin I need a stiff gin now. Am not sure what I did but I did it.

    Anyway what was I goin' to say. Ah yes, Mornin' all. And Howya CLP, let's have them details, I'll be there at the party.

    Unless am told to bugger off again of course. Ew. Where's that gin.

  • Comment number 6.

    Blimey indeed Deevs!!! Had a bit of a struggle trying to spell my name properly this morning - Monday not the best day for validating passwords!!!



    I can't come to the Bye bye do :-(( - I'll be up in Liverpool seeing my mummy for the festive season. Will just have to wait for the gossip afterwards. Jealous already.

  • Comment number 7.

    Ah. That's better. Short slurp, straighten out the wrinkles on me nose an' wipe the slobber off me chin. Mind you that gin tastes a bit funny. I hope Renee's not bin' cleanin' the silver again without the glasses on, am sure I can taste Dura-Glit.

    Any road up.. you too, Deev? Ah well that's ok then, I thought it was just meself on the extradition list.

    Well now, it's a bit gusty up 'ere in Wigan but not as miserable as it was yesterday. I had to go over to Chester via the A-roads and the leaves were rollin' round in the most bizarre fashion; it was like drivin' through one a them ticker-tape parades. Marvellous. Was pretendin' I'd won X-Factor, hurrah.

    Mind you I don't know what I'd do to win X-Factor. Cross one eye independently of the other whilst recitin' Albert and the Lion and playin' the accordion.

    Whilst wearin' the reinforced sports bra and a couple a corn plasters, of course. A sore thing indeed.

  • Comment number 9.

    Well it's freezing here in my tiny part of Kent. No sun either.
    Personally I hate dreams where I've been working but the worse ones are when I have spent the whole night exercising only to wake up feeling exhausted but without the being fitter benefits. Fortunately, last night I was stuck in a lift with Daniel Craig...........sigh.
    Have a good day peeps.

  • Comment number 10.

    ooh by the way DEEV - did you see the Sunday Times mag yesterday? Lots of piccies of Mr Brand ...!

    T x

  • Comment number 11.

    I often do more work in my dreams than I do during the day...surprised I still have a job, really... :-)

    Bit of a `calm before the storm' day today - usually I only get time to read the blog (unless I'm trying to exercise birthday privileges on ARF - incidentally, will that be carried over to the Breakfast Show, or will be be a present for Mr Mayo?), but as I'm working at home today, I have a few moments to add what I fear will be a slightly duller tinge to the daily blog.

    Anyway, the big news from this neck of the woods is - not only has Spud U Like at Merry Hill had a refit, they've also added the Christmas Special option (turkey, sage and cranberry) to their excting range of fillings.

    Told you it would be dull....

  • Comment number 12.

    Tins .... Sunday Times? Me? Gerroutta here!! I'm a Tabloid gal, make no mistake.

    Blast!

    Altho stragely attracted to Tim Minchin at the mo too ......

    Morning each!

    Chris...llving the Terry tribute idea..please make it happen!

    Long post alert i feel so please feel free to ignore!

    Firstly, Green Day..as MfR and Deevs have both already said..totally,totally amazing. THey are more GM`s band than mine although by default i know most of their songs! 3 hours on stage..fabulous audience interaction, acoustic sections and a 6ft pink rabbit all add up to a brilliant night! However..i couldnt hear properly til about 5pm on Saturday!

    Halloween..went to my sis`s and they`d done spider jelly, buns, sound effects, lots of cobwebs etc and stuck it all on a table outside... was fantastic watching all the little (and some not so little ones!) coming up...loved it!

    Sunday was a lazy morning(far to horrible to do ANYTHING except loll around in PJ`s!) followed by a trip to a well known diy store to get some new beading for the laminate downstairs... we were out for less than 2 hours...got home to find that the GM`s car cover had been nicked... wouldnt mind but the car is parked on the drive..in full view of the rest of the street.... cue one very,very annoyed GM..some people just dont have any sense of right or wrong do they... Bids..your poor grandsons..we should just string the lot of them up i reckon..

    rant over..sorry! On the plus side he was so wound up he got stuck straight into the diy and i got about 3 extra things done!

    So..thats my life for anyone still reading!

    Hope everyone else is fine and dandy..some fab weekends had by some it sounds!

    Will endeavour to keep up this week..but dont hold your breath!

    Oh, and will try to be more interesting next time too...hee hee..

    Laters..

    Dear Chris,
    I've been an avid listener of your Drivetime show since the beginning! As well as being over the moon regarding your transfer to the Breakfast Show, I’m at a loss due to your departure from Drivetime, and especially ARF.
    I’m an Expat listener (via the WWW) from here in Paris and I know for a fact that I’m not the only one. Would it be cheeky to ask for an extra special EXPAT ARF before the end of your current reign? I’m pretty sure that you have many thousands of ex-pat listeners who would snap at the chance to participate.
    Just a suggestion, but would love to know if it could become a reality.
    All the best.
    Jonathan.

    Afternoon peeps - would have posted sooner today but had to do all the register, right click, email, agree, faffy stuff and now I'm pooped!

    Been very tardy in my posting of late - saving up all my chat for the 'Pool at the weekend!
    Able to post in th'afternoon today coz I have a day off work - car in the garage for MOT.
    But just because I haven't been joining in, I have been trying to keep up with the posts - whew, you lot have loads to say! :o)

    At last some news about Bye Bye Drivetime ..... will I be able to do a 'there & back' on the train on 23rd or will an overnight be required??

    Off to collect the car, so ttfn, Crumpy xx

  • Comment number 34.

    Hiya everyone, the big countdown is on now then Christoff, never seen so many fallen leaves before, knee deep in em walking to work this morning.
    But if Beesmum is a Teccy then I,m the last of the Mohicans,LoL, have not been of here for a while but always have a look whats happening every day.
    The Liverpool meet will be great, really looking forward to it, will be making an extra long weekend out of it,getting to the Pool friday afternoon and staying until monday.
    Got to find a karaoke bar for friday night, apparently this will be the biggest blog meet to date, bet Big Nick will be there for a few beers as he,s local.
    Looking forward to meeting everyone I,ve not met previously,better get back to it, mega busy as usual which is a good thing these days, this recession does not have seemed to have affected aerospace at all.

    Seza yous is not as flippin' jealous as ME, babe. In fact I was goin' to get meself on a flight back from Dublin for the evening, so ragin' am I; but having looked at all the options I can't leave my gang a gobdaws out on the loose unaccompanied on Saturday night down Temple Bar without the tags on or I'll be spendin' Sunday in front a the Beak, bailin' 'em all out.

    So am goin' to have to raise a sulky Black Russian to the lot of yous in the land of my birth, and camp out to get me tickets for the DT party at the O2. Bugger.

    Now then have remembered what I wanted to say this morning; as I was rushin' around, phone in one hand, hairdryer in other, I'm sure I heard El Tel mention the name Mick McSorley..? Now then, if I'm not tragically mistaken, this was the funniest, daftest, wittiest chap ever, used to fax CLP in his previous incarnation. Anyone remember him? Yorkshireman, I think. Hilarious.

    Chris, Sounds like a busy week, enjoy. I've only got 3 more sleeps until HONG KONG BABY xx Excited moi!

    I had a terrible dream on Saturday night and the fact that I remember it now is quite freaking me out. I was heading backwards to be beheaded on a very fast ride. I think that the idea was that I couldn't see the blade coming, so that's why I was going backwards and I think that once my neck hit the blade, off with my head. Fortunately I woke up before that happened - now what's that all about??

    Ah sure, Ali, you're grand. It's funny about the dreams though. Bring to the surface all sorts of things we fear facing in our daily consciousness.

    Mind you, the beheading thing.. now then the Freudians would have a field day with THAT one, hahahahahaha!!

    Ere. I wonder what your man the dream therapist would have to say about it. What was his name now, Ian Wallace wasn't it. He's FAB. Check him out.

    long time no blog comments, been busy at work.

    Does anyone know whatever happened to professor plum?

    anyway I was wanting to put in a good word for the fabulous chiddingfold bonfire celebrations coming up this weekend. I know CLP has forsaken us surrey types in favour of the berkshir'ati but we are still here, and know how to throw a party.

    Chezza, I used to think that about karaoke until Boleynman and me got a bit tiddly in Majorca and ended up doing our Robbie and Nicole version of Something Stupid - once you hear that roaring crowd there'll be no stopping you! Sorry I'll miss it, but I'm hanging on for another Brum in which to make my Blog debut.

    Ali - scary dream, keep away from theme parks in Honkers Konkers.

    Dragon - you don't look properly dressed without your 22!

    Tweeting - well, whatever floats your boat I say, but it's not for me. I was gobble smackered the other day when it was Â鶹Éç headline news that Stephen Fry was considering leaving Twitter! Methinks there are more newsworthy stories around.

    Howdy doody.
    Car passed the MOT altho there were a couple of advisory notes which will mean new brake shoes and discs along with a tyre, in a couple of months!

    Still I do pile on the miles so probably not surprising!

    Adam is making what smells like a fab chili, for tea, and then it's off to rehearsals for me. How is it that lines stay in your head as long as you don't have to speak them??!!
    I know the blessed things ..... I do! I just can't remember them!
    Wish me luck.

    On the bonnie, bonnie baaaaaaanks of Loch Looooooooomond.

    I though Ian Wallace used to play for Coventry City in the eighties? Busy man eh?

    I'm not too sure on the Twitter thing - I did fancy joining, but if Stephen Fry is considered boring, what chance do us mere mortals have?

    For example, today's Tweets would have included:

    Run out of coffee.

    Looking out of the window - nothing to report.

    Scarlett Johanssen called - begging me for another chance.


    One of these might not be strictly accurate though :-)

    Eee maybe he was, boleyn!! Or maybe 'e was the handsome chap with the blue face who got hung, drawn an' quartered in Braveheart? Ew. Put me right off me tacos an' meatballs. Or p'raps 'e was the little chap in the kilt who usedta fling 'imself about on the telly on Hogmanay? Yous remember 'im, Donal, wheere's your troosers, lalalalala whoop-de doo..

    Ooo where's me ghillies an' me tartan skirt.. ah NO I lent that to the brother-outlaw last Burns Night, along with Renee's frilly blouse an' the fluffy hot-water bottle. Well now. 'Ed best get 'em back in good condition an' not still with haggis stains up the front. Am never, ever doin' the Reels with 'im again, I'd vertigo for weeks an' a right nasty graze on me leg from bein' on 'is team, tossin' that damn telegraph pole into next door's rockery. The man is a psyhopath.

    AND. Am not sure but I think 'e was last seen in Blackpool zoo, eatin' little lads called Albert.

    Uncle Carl, I certainly don't think Stephen Fry is boring! And if thousands of people want to follow his every move and thought then that's up to them; just meant I didn't want to read about his social networking dilemmas in the news headlines!

    So you didn't really run out of coffee then...

  • Comment number 79.

    Ah Clodagh, don't get me going on Albert and the Lion, my Yorkshire accent is even better than my Scottish one! And I think that was Andy Stewart, or maybe Kenneth McKellar.

    Och, hoots mon.

    boleyngirl - my apologies, I didn't mean to sound critical (particularly as I agree with you!).

    And you're right about the coffee too :-)

  • Comment number 81.

    uncle carl - I am, on twitter but don't tend to tweet - todays entries would have read

    1 - got to work same time as normal
    2 - had a unexciting day at work - but did see my boss who works in the states
    3 - thinking about going to the gym tonight!

    And who said my life was dull ;-)

    No need Uncle Carl! Say hello to the lovely Scarlett, who is, after all the OTHER boleyngirl.

    Aw. Andy Stewart. Bless 'im.

    Mind you I preferred 'im in the leopard-skin trolleys gyratin' round meself.

  • Comment number 85.

    Ha Clodagh! Rod, where's yer trooosers?

  • Comment number 86.

    That shoulda read just gyratin' around.

    'E never gyrated round Meself in them trolleys, or I'd a thrown me gin over 'im.

    Clodagh.xx

  • Comment number 87.

    And said trolleys put me in mind of the DDF Eric when we went to see the ballet.

    The GD, then six, looked a bit perplexed, nudged her Granddad and asked what the jackanory was with the chap's tights.

    "Ah, don't worry about that, sweetheart," says Eric. "That's just what the lady stands on when 'e lifts 'er up.

    Ah Clodagh, you can't beat a finely honed balletman.

    Hello Guys

    Cooked a sort of chicken supreme tonight cos I am so bored with cooking the same thing all the time!!

    So help me out.

    What is your family's favourite dinner/dish/nosh? Anything a bit different maybe?

    All I get when I ask the family is "I don't know, Whatever you want, You choose!"

    Well if I knew what I wanted or what to choose I wouldn't ask, would I?

    Sorry should I have had the ranty pants for this? Didn't mean to moan,

    Seza xXx

  • Comment number 93.

    Just a quick blog to say Hi.
    Hope everyone is well.

    Seza,
    Sausages & mash with onion sauce. Yum

  • Comment number 94.

    Someone ought to tell Sting a nasty furry animal has attacked his face!!


    Seza xxx

  • Comment number 95.

    Seza never mind that. I'm ringin' the RSPCA. Fancy Sting eatin' the furry animal on telly when there's kiddies watchin'. An' 'im a vegetarian too.

    And didn't 'is mammy tell 'im not to talk with 'is mouth full.

    Dyou know what. Speakin' of talkin' with the full mazzard.

    I'm always ragin' jealous when I see a youngfuller eatin' an ice cream. How marvellous to be able to dive straight in up to the eyebrows, raspberry an' hundreds an' thousands stuck in your hair, ice cream dribblin' down your scarf an' bits a cornet in your ears. Delicious.

  • Comment number 97.

    evening all - long time no blog!

    either they fixed whatever other people were having problems with or I just got lucky with the re-signing in thingy!

    also starting to get jealous of impending meet. i bet you all have such a great time

    please hurry with announcement for 23rd Dec Chris as we have just been told that Uni will close on 24th this year so I just may be able to get down to the big smoke after all for your penultimate drivetime show

    Seza - have just discovered a few things to make with chicken and pasta which can relieve boredom of the same old stuff for tea. bit of a fussy bod so others could add more to the sauce than i do but quite versatile.

    back later possibly

  • Comment number 98.

    Evening all,

    Chris sounds like you had a busy day, I'll watch out for the cbeebies panto, the kids usually watch cbeebies so shouldn't miss it!

    Hope everyone on the blog is well, have a good time in Liverpool at the weekend those who are going.

    I'm now counting down the 17 weeks that Chris said it is until the days start getting lighter again, I hate these cold wet winter days, it's been horrible here in Cornwall today and is freezing cold even with the fire lit!

    Well that's monday done, my kids go back to school tomorrow :-)

    Oh and I just discovered that 1/2 a bottle of J20 goes alot further than you think when falling from a unit onto the kitchen floor-a right mess!!!

    Love to all MCM xx

  • Comment number 99.


    Evening All:) Hope all hunky dory.

    Had a right giggle reading this afternoon's goings on! Can just picture Clodagh jiggin and Boleyn singing too!
    Mad lot!

    Seza - do what Deev does - she who is still coughing when I spoke to her tonight !!!! Get a recipe book and go through it. Mr B trying to increase his limited me n u with Delia and must admit I am addicted to the spanish pork with olives (didn't like olives before I tasted this) with saffron rice. Yummy and one of those you do early whack in on slow cook - take the dog for a walk or whatever! then final ingredients go in when rice cooked.

    I'm boring - I just love pasta so home in on those recipes but Mr B can't eat cream!

    Right - off to stir me spag bol !!!

    Beezer xx


  • Comment number 100.

    Hi Beez. can Mr B eat creme fraiche as lots of pasta recipes work well with that as I never use cream other than in cake! not that i have many mind x bet your spag bol is lovely - red wine or white in it?
