Next show

Right. Mr. Gates and Mr. Ballmer take some of the blame for this post along with the muppets at Nvidia who cannot write a Video Card Driver to save their lives.

I was all geared up, research ready, voice in good working order and ready to record last night. Went to my PC, switched on and the next thing I knew was that it was 01h30 and I had just got my PC back up and running.

What had happened? I had updated my graphics card software. Big mistake. BIG mistake.

In the end I had to format my C: drive and reinstall Windows. So - until my PC is back up properly - it still has issues - and all the audio software is back on it - my latest show "Westminster Abbey" will have to wait.

Believe me I am as narked as you. Later.

New show in the works

Just to let you all know that I'm working on a new show. It's been a while but This Week In London will be back in the next couple of days. Thanks for bearing with me. June was tough.

I'm taking requests for the music. What would you like me to play?

June - a great month and a miserable month

Hi there one and all.

I just wanted to post a quick update and let you know what was going on. Long and the short of it is that June is going to be a right-off for new This Week In London podcasts. I've got a strong need to record one but no time.

I just got back from a fortnight in Dubai and Abu Dhabi. Next Sunday I'm off to Orlando and then on to the Bahamas. Yeah, I know "you. poor. thing".

Trouble is YoungestSon pointed out to me that I will only have seen him for six days in June. Which is a massive downer. I haven't travelled for a while and this month is exceptional. But...

Anyway, I want to do a show, I have a show to do (two out of three ain't bad) but have no time to do it. D'oh. And that's the third thing I need. Time.

Please do keep the comments and emails coming in - don't forget, you can leave me a message on the Skype phone and I can pick them up. I'll reply to everyone. Just maybe not in June! :-(

Thanks

Paul

Downloads on This Week In London

I just wanted to post a huge thank you to all my listeners out there in Podcast Land. I've been looking fairly closely to my stats and realised that for the last few months I've been averaging 10,000 downloads a month!

When I first started doing This Week In London I always thought that it would be niche audience - how many people want to listen to me warbling on about London after all? It seems I was wrong! 10,000 downloads wrong...

So, thank you for your support. I really appreciate your continued participation in the show.

Don't forget you can send email, leave a comment or even ring me up and leave a message. I'll reply to everyone and if you do leave an audio comment I'll do my best to use it in the show.

I'm always looking for ideas for the show so don't be shy!

Did I say thanks? Thanks.

TWIL #33 - Docklands Light Railway



Greetings! In this show I interview two top guys from the Docklands Light Railway. I hope you enjoy it. It's my usual blend of interesting background information combined with my irreverant prattlings.

You can play the podcast by clicking the PuPu Player (no, really) up there at the top of the page. Alternatively you can listen to the show here:

I have one of the DLR Goody Bags here if anyone wants it enough. Best comment detailing why they should have it will get it.

Music is by
Twelfth Night - Sequences
Wes Brookes - Parka
Black Lab - Ghost In Your Mind

Thanks
