Who's the sad bastard pulling my wires ?

Your hate for me or my station, Front FM, doesn't bother me in the slightest, and I understand you were probably looking for a free rig. But id love to get to know you and meet whoever's sad enough to go out new years eve in minus 3 degrees weather, and yank my power cable till it snaps. Not only are you a fucking idiot for disconnecting the power this way, but its a minor inconvenience and will be repaired shortly. You've been doing this since the summer and I want to know why!

Contact me so you can tell me all about why you think its acceptable to do this and why you obviously have nothing better to do with your time.

Also, the next time your Mrs lets you out for the evening and your up to no good, please wait for me to arrive before you drive back to your council estate, with the fuel paid for by the British taxpayers. It would be such a wasted journey if we didn't meet face to face. :tup

Yours Sincerely, ..... MR XXL

What’s the point, they all hide under their hoods and run away after.

Some one must be desperate for a rig , I’m guessing you guys aren’t London Based? So wherever you are makes you a easy target

If he was a proper scumbag he'd be taking the cable - there's good money to be had for copper... Screwfix do an armoured cable for about £30 a roll - might be worth a try, though it probably wouldn't stop a determined cunt.

Same thing happened to us many times, til we went for armoured cable. Nearly caught them once. They got bored in the end. Spiteful goons. Probably the same lot!

I could maybe understand when you first switch on and they get all jealous so they cut your cable just to be a cunt. But over and over and over again ? Really ? Who even has that much time on their hands.

@yellowbeard yeh don’t ever lay it on the floor. They rip up the lot. That’s how sad these people are. Especially when its only some shit .75 flex 2 core. They’d probably get more money collecting beer cans.

No one ever seems to last in Essex, back about 10-15 years ago there was a good little radio scene going on but now I think 91.7 is about the only thing left apart from 106.5.

Web-Tech of course your going to say that though because it was your era. We try to play all sorts of different stuff but if you try to please everyone you please no one.

My era too! had a big aerial I'd point a certain way and I'd pick up the Essex stations, used to start with Charge 90.8 then work my way down the dial. Couldnt pick up Premier though :(

I agree. Back then I could listen to radio all day, but these days I struggle to even find something worth listening to for a couple of hours in Essex.

91.7 seems to be doing pretty well at the moment into Essex and Kent, plus pal of mine's picking them up pretty decent in Dulwich and someone else got them in Borehamwood solid with RDS.
