Well I do loads of competitions on the internet and I never win anything. Well this dj had just rang me up from Smooth fm saying can he ring me back in 2 hours to talk live on air about my favourite tracks? I said 'yes of course' in a shaky voice lolol. Now the thing is I just don't know what songs I put down on the entry form and don't know what I've won. What the hell am I gonna do and talk about? I've got to frantically go to the smooth fm website now to see if the comp is still on.

Oh good luck. Just keep cool, Id be talking a million times faster than usual. So have a quick drink to calm down. Its his job to keep the conversation running smoothly, so leave it to him most of the time.

Just ask him to give you an idea of the ones you wrote down for the competition as you had so many in mind at he time, its hard to remember all the ones you put down. I know this sounds a bit daft but at least your sort of being honest without making yourself look stupid! And let us know what you have won, Goodluck! Marie

I'm sure I said some romantic drivel. I didn't read the bit about going on air.

Hi Louise Don't panic Luv. Many years ago I found myself in a similar situation but I had to go down to Radio Nottingham in person and be interviewed for an hour (my chosen songs in between the chat). I was nervous too but the dj was very relaxed and put me at my ease. You will be fine. Chrissie x

You didn't see Dennis Mccarthey did you chrissie?

No Louise - I can't remember the chaps name now, though I do have it all on tape somewhere. Wasn't Dennis McCarthy on Radio Trent? I accidently put Radio Trent and then realised that it was Radion Nottingham.

HI, Hope all goes well. Remember that it is HIS responsibility to keep things flowing. If you stop talking, he has to pick up the thread, so there is no need to keep talking. Easier said than done Anne

about 1 and a half hours time!! I'm listening to it now and getting more scared. He seemed to like the fact that i lived on the isle of wight. perhaps he wants to talk about the needles lighthouse or something pmsl. cAn't get through to hubby at work. He will p*ss himself. Sorry about the language. I am over excited

I'll be listening Louise. Can you record it for your husband? Great tracks by the way; you must be about my age!! LOL Deep breathing..... Suzy

37 suzy. NOw what can I say about Al green? I could talk about tina turner I suppose. I think i put that the michael jackson song was a happy one to dance to. I'm going to be in trouble if I didn't choose those tracks aren't i?

Christine2 Report 27 Sep 2005 11:32

I think that he will say the names of the tracks that you have chosen first Louise, so you probably won't have to remember them beforehand.

Suzy

Suzy Report 27 Sep 2005 11:32

Type 'Al Green' into Google - he has a website. That might help. I'm 42, so a BIT older!! I'm sure they will remind you of your record choices before you go on air. Suzy
