I Hate Onesies

(written for the Wish FM Breakfast Blog)

 The theme park Drayton Manor are attempting to break the world record for the most people in one place wearing onesies this weekend.
The first question is, of course, why?
Away from that though it got me thinking about just why I hate the onesie....because I do. I despise them! I've narrowed it down to 7 reasons.

1. The nonsense reasons for wearing them. "They're so warm" - put a jumper on "They're fun" - They are not fun, they are irritating, especially the character onesies. You really don't look cute, neither do you like a dinosaur.

2. They're uncomfortable. I made the mistake of wearing one once. Sat down too quickly and nearly ruined my chances of becoming a grandfather.

3. They encourage "wackiness". No charity day is complete without Darren in Accounts coming to work as the Pink Panther.

4. They make me think you are one of those people who get a kick out of wearing baby clothes! Also they ARE babygrows!

5. They're impractical. Nowhere to put your phone, wallet, change, etc, unless of course you're wearing a kangaroo onesie.

 6. You are more prone to accidents. Remember the Kenny Everett sketch about Spiderman?


7. What's going on underneath? Are you wearing underwear or are you sweating your nasty sweat all over my couch?

Let me tell you this now. You will never, NEVER see me in a onesie!

First World Problems Of A Very Lucky Boy

 I was a very lucky boy. When it came to leaving school I didn't just go wide eyed into the big bad world to see where it took me. I knew. Since being at least 8 years old I wanted to be a radio presenter. I loved listening to Manchester's Piccadilly Radio. I listened all day and all night. Timmy Mallett was my first favourite and when a lad called Mark Lupton from 2 years above me at St. Dunstan's won the top 10 singles on his show I was insanely jealous! My teenage insomnia was never a problem because it meant I could listen to ALL of the Late Night Funster Show, all the way through to 2am. I had a notebook full of ideas for features and would walk around Moston with my Walkman filling the gaps between tracks on whatever album I was wearing out with (eventually) perfectly timed links. In 1991, aged 15, I started my own weekly show on Northern Air Hospital Radio and from that moment I was regularly broadcasting, joining the hospital radio station in my uni town, the univer...

Ross and Brand

Just getting back to work now and catching up on what I've missed. The whole Russell Brand and Johnathan Ross thing. Childish - yes. Good entertaining radio - undecided. Worth 3 people losing their jobs over including the woman who made the radio station the biggest in the country - hardly.
