Apropos of nothing, but is the BBC café at Queenies Gardens still open?
I'm in the area tomorrow working and haven't had a BBC coffee in years Smile

For our honeymoon we got a cottage a few miles from Tywyn on the Welsh coast. The cottage had a strange satellite system, so we retuned it to get dear old Peter. That would have confused the buggers!

Instead of the latest in Cardiff, they would be watching the goings on in some dreary council estate in North Hull! Very Happy
Hey! That's my estate you're insulting! Mad

North Hull is dreary though. I much prefer the character and the general feeling of life on Holderness Road, and the trashed gardens of the Student Houses in Hull (OK, maybe less so the latter).

Christa paid £30k despite being off screen for 10 weeks, according to an insider quoted by the Yorkshire Evening Post at least.

With Amanda Harper going on maternity soon and Christa still awol, they are going to be quite short of on air talent at this rate.

I get the feeling that Christa won't be back. I think it's bad how the BBC are not telling us anything as well

Maybe they're of the opinion that it's not your business? Maybe it's something personal or private?

Would going to a single presenter not be an option then? Some variations across the BBC regions.
