Beatrice Started conversation Nov 11, 2004
See, I was resisting phoning in (cos I've already won a prize this week....), and anyway I didnt know what it was that Juncker, Luxembourg's PM, had said last week too early, that caused a media frenzy (apparently it was a premature announcement of Arafat's demise)
But I was listening to the chap who had rung in, trying to answer the follow-up question (Where is Juncker now?)
The poor guy obviously didn't know, so was guessing madly
America!
Australia!
Africa!
The DJ was trying to give him a hint, and said "A big red country..."
Russia! he shouts
"No, next to that. Got a big wall."
Germany!!! shouts the over-excited caller.
(At this point I almost had to pull the car over, I was laughing so hard.)
Ah dearie me.

Hehehe
I was on the radio this morning.
I rang in for the "mystery voice" but when the DJ answered the phone, I said "Kapla!" (for reasons I won't go in to here...)
we had a little chat after he stopped laughing, then he went to change the record, (I thought) and he put me live on air! And asked me to repeat what I'd just said!!
How embarrasing, coming out as a closet Star Trek fan, live on air.
