Radio shows I have loved, Part 1. I’ll start with a show that I don’t particularly care for anymore, but at the time it saved my bacon…. When Steve Wright Helped Me Pass My SATs. That’s right. The presenter of Radio 2’s ‘Big Show’, who pioneered the use of the American-style ‘gang’ radio in the UK, helped me pass my Year 9 maths exam. Comments : Leave a Comment. The Most Awful Thing I Have Seen In My Life. Sex and the City 2, then. It feels like 2 MONTHS, CARRIE’. They supposedly have the most luxurious ...

For mum. | Bex's Blog
https://bexlindsay.wordpress.com/2013/11/02/for-mum
Just for posterity, I thought I’d put this here. It’s what I wrote and read out at mum’s funeral last week…. The day mum passed away, I told her that she was the best mum I could have possibly had. She looked at me, smiled, and said ‘I know’. The thing is, mum once told me, in all seriousness, that she just wasn’t a maternal person. I asked what she meant, and she replied, ‘Well, we only had you to see what you would look like’. ‘And what did you think? I often watched her interact with the staff and cus...

If these walls could talk. | Bex's Blog
https://bexlindsay.wordpress.com/2011/09/26/if-these-walls-could-talk
If these walls could talk. Ten years ago, I was petrified. Petrified of life, petrified of my impending GCSEs, petrified of boys, petrified of how uncool I was, and petrified that my teenage years would turn out to be as painful as I suspected*. Basically, I had no idea of what to expect from the world, and I had no idea of what the world expected from me. You see, it was around this time ten years ago that I moved house. (I should clarify; my. Check More feelings than you can fit in a suitcase? Anyway, ...

On your high horse | Bex's Blog
https://bexlindsay.wordpress.com/2012/05/07/on-your-high-horse
On your high horse. Ok, so I’m aware that’s not exactly groundbreaking stuff. And to be honest, from talking to my friends, I don’t think that what I’m about to write about. Groundbreaking stuff. And that worries me, because I think it should be. Then I walk a bit further, and a man tries to get my attention. I ignore him. Head down, hood up, headphones in. 8216;Here love, where are you going? 8216;Where’s that? 8216;Can I come? 8216;I’m seeing my boyfriend’. This is the weakest lie I’ve ever told).

The Big One | Bex's Blog
https://bexlindsay.wordpress.com/2013/06/07/the-big-one
So where to begin? I know everyone deals with bad news differently, but every response was appreciated. Whether you texted, tweeted, hugged or gave me a smile of solidarity, you’re in the good books. You’ve no idea how much it meant for someone to ask how the treatment was going, take it in, and then carry on as normal. One good friend asked me if the whole experience has made me love life more- do I want to seize the day, jump out of airplanes, swim with dolphins? Um, no. But it has made me more awa...

Ah, the actual reason I started this blog. I’m a radio geek, and because of that I will, from time-to-time, be posting some audio work I’ve completed. First up, here’s a copy of something I made recently called ‘Comedy Sketch’. Here we are then-. Don’t judge it too harshly. If you do there’ll be tears before bedtime (mostly mine). 8230;and I’ll be adding a pretentious poem soon. I can tell you’re excited. Leave a Reply Cancel reply. Enter your comment here.

Radio shows I have loved, Part 2. | Bex's Blog
https://bexlindsay.wordpress.com/2011/01/29/radio-shows-i-have-loved-part-2
Radio shows I have loved, Part 2. After a while I decided I’d had enough of biology and definitely wanted to switch to literature. In my head it was a done deal- what would be the problem? Well, there were loads, apparently. Timetable clashes, the fact I’d missed most of the lessons on The Color Purple, and other factors I deemed to be trivial were thrown at me, but I’d be damned if I was stuck studying shrubbery and humans for another two years. And there were no adverts! Luckily, I had good company....
