It’s tough being an Orient supporter. Surrounded by London Premier clubs, Orient are often the forgotten poor relations. At school, West Ham and Spurs fans laughing at you because of who you supported. But I wouldn’t have it any other way ❤️

Being a huge 80’s music fan I’m often asked to name my favourite song from that great decade. Over the next 20 days I’m going to pick my best songs of the 80’s. I’d be interested to see some of yours too.
1. It’s My life - Talk Talk (1984). Needs no explanation. Perfection.
Day 12. Chance - Big Country (1983)
So many great choices from BC, including some fab album tracks, but Chance will always be top of the pile. RIP Stuart, gone far too soon.
Reached No 9 in the UK Chart.
Can’t believe it’s Ken’s last day on R2. I will always be grateful for being on PopMaster last year and being able to chat to the legend himself. I was a bit in awe, but he was so calming and professional. Looking forward to more
#popmaster
with him on GHR.
I’m angry for those who rely on Twitter to interact with people… those who haven’t perhaps talked to anyone all day. Those with mental health issues…Twitter is their lifeline. Disgraceful, Elon.
Good evening - hope you’re all well. Really looking forward to hearing some brilliant songs on this
#forgotten80s
1982 special. Good luck with your requests. Cheers everyone!
If Smyth’s wonder goal had been scored by Ronaldo or Messi, everyone would be raving about it. Hope it gets the recognition it deserves

Agreed, It’s a private matter - but so many people feel they have a right to know. This is where I dislike social media....
Was out walking earlier - a van pulled up with a slogan on the side offering to provide ‘Your Scaffold Requirements.’
I asked the driver if he could sing ‘Thank You Very Much’ and ‘Lily The Pink’ to me. He just looked at me blankly.
I don’t understand people, I really don’t.

Sorry but Danny did make a mistake, as Bruno also noticed. Graeme didn’t make any. That’s what it comes down to at this stage.... and the judges have to go by that dance-off, not how good someone has been for the last few weeks.
Good evening all, hope you’re well.
Here for another dose of great
#forgotten80s
songs.
Not forgetting this genius, either. Five years ago today… Rest in Peace Mark.
Good evening all, hope you’re well. Here for my weekly dose of

. I’m going to be Head over Heels for the Abba Mastermix being played tonight…
Good evening all - hope you’re well. Here’s to another few hours of great

tunes. Hope your requests are played (only the good ones of course 😂)
I’m no Royalist, but I hope the scummy media are pleased with themselves now. I’m sure had she been left alone, the Princess wouldn’t have needed to make this statement, it really makes me sick. Wishing her well.
Good evening all, hope you’re well. Here for another few hours of great

tunes. Feet up, glass of Advocaat in one hand, and a packet of salt & vinegar Ringo’s in the other. Cheers!
Hi hope you’re all well on this momentous occasion. Looking forward to hearing some great songs this evening on the
#forgotten80s
500th show. Congratulations
@MatthewJRudd
for putting up with some of us whinging tweeters for so long (mentioning no names of course 😂) Wow, 500...
Good evening all, hope you’re well. Here for a special
#soundsofthe80s
show. Looking forward to hearing from
the great Tom Bailey and a Mastermix of my fave 80’s band, The Thompson Twins 😁and a lovely tribute to the unforgettable radio legend Steve Wright ☺️❤️
Good evening all, hope you’re well. Only here for the first hour of

as I start a new job tomorrow… I need an early night 😳good luck with your requests!
Good evening all, hope you’re well. Looking forward to spending the next few hours listening to
#forgotten80s
- it’s so much better than having an ‘ology’
@SkyNews
This is terrible. How would you “journalists” like it if it was a member of your family that had sent this heartbreak message to you? Very bad taste, should be deleted.
Good evening all, hope you're well. Looking forward to tonight’s show, but after 10 superb weeks of anniversary specials,
#forgotten80s
is now truly...
Hi everyone, hope you’re well. Really looking forward to another great
#forgotten80s
show tonight. Always a good listen…
(P.s. Before you get too excited, I can guarantee
@MatthewJRudd
won’t be playing ‘Starting Together’ this evening 😂)
These stats will always make me sad… Talk Talk were one of the best groups of the 80’s, yet so unappreciated when it comes to single record sales. And yes, I will keep moaning about it 😂
#soundsofthe80s
Happy New Year everyone! Thanks to you all on here who have whinged with me, chatted with me, made me cry with laughter and kept me smiling through my tougher times in 2023. You’re all bloody marvellous! Hope to meet more of you next year. Let’s make 2024 a great one. Cheers🥂🍾
Good evening all, hope you’re well. Looking forward to yet another cracking
#forgotten80s
show. Will one of these legends strike it lucky with your requests tonight?
🏴v🏴 Let’s hope our Boys Don’t Cry on Tuesday if Scotland win by Chance…
Happy Christmas to you all, hope you have a great few days. I'll be raising a glass to absent friends and family who are missed so very much. Cheers everyone 🍷stay safe xx
Good evening all, hope you’re well. Here for another few hours of great

Oh, that’s wonderful…..
Good evening everyone - hope you’re all well. Looking forward to another great

Here’s hoping

won’t be playing any criminal records tonight.

@TheXFactor
I thought this was meant to be about the contestants? Instead it’s the Robbie ‘I love myself’ Williams show. Bring back Sharon and Louis Walsh!
Good evening all - hope you’re well. Can’t wait to hear some great
#forgotten80s
songs from the year when I was a stroppy 14 year old. Bring on the year 1989 😁
