I remember doing a quiz on Corby Radio some years ago. I thought I’d do the question one more time. BIG mistake……I gave out the answer instead…..It was the Vincent Furnier (Alice Cooper) moment that has now gone down in Corby Radio history. And Des never lets me forget it !!

How did you first become involved with Radio?
I sent tapes off to my local radio stations, and got lots ‘n’ lots of rejections. One of them took a chance and gave me the grave yard shift. I was awful. The rest is history……I hope I got better !!

I really love steak and chips. I’m a bit common. Drink wise, I’m a bitter man (shandy that is)
