I listen to it in the car quite often. Listen to the 90s one more than I thought I would. Shame Absolute 70s isn't on DAB though.

I'm fucking sick of that Scouse girl in the Royal Navy advert on there though. Especially the way she says "ponies".Mr Sheen wrote:I listen to it in the car quite often. Listen to the 90s one more than I thought I would. Shame Absolute 70s isn't on DAB though.
It was Rio, Gaz. They now have Spandau Ballet on but it's an obscure one, one called Musclebound
