  1. To be honest I've started tuning into TalkRadio for breakfast. Toby's breakfast format seemed to have changed quite a few years ago, seemingly concentrating on dreary local "news", unless there's a big UK news story. Currently it's pretty poor without him IMO. Then again, Rony's show is/was dire (is it still on ? Maybe his listeners have become ethereal)
  2. He's been online here saying he's been busy on the Wentworth gig and taking time off. I don't see anything other than a freelance guy taking a holiday at his own expense. It's rather insulting that radio sheffield don't allow the presenters of his breakfast show to say "standing in for Toby Foster" though. It only leads to speculation.
  3. Would strongly recommended Martin Halifax, self-employed builder, managed and renovated my old house to an excellent standard. Does work for one of the most reputable and long-standing renovators in Sheffield, Whitecliffes who’d I’d also recommend. Highly recommended – Contact me if you need a reference.
  4. Dan Green twittering on is slighly more improved than Paul Walker's ever-so-serious macho shouting about overpaid footballers for 10 minutes as if he's announcing some enoooormous gravitas piece. Worst still when the football season's over Walker then scours the UK for boring sporting news such as bowls so he can drone, drone, drone on for another 10 minutes to fill the airspace.
  5. Paul walkers crap. He's a sports presenter. That's it. He's operating as a filler until they get Someone else in. The whole radio station needs flushing.
  6. Paul Walkers got no chance. He's a good sports commentator, that's it. It's always perplexing to me tha when he's filling in he's quite relaxed, but as soon as the topic of football is shoe-in'ed into the show he suddenly developed some quasi-overlord, ever so serious voice, as if 22 all of course heterosexual ball kicking overpaid dimwits who chose to play this game in the same t shirt until some more cash is waved at their lumpy skulls is THAT important
  7. Got far to self-important and thought he was untouchable. I guess Rony thinks that he's untouchable too, but as mentioned earlier it usually happens sooner or later. Toby won't be bothered about the loss of cash, but the loss of publicity he gets by being a regular voice on RS... If he doesn't find somewhere soon he'll star to fade a little, and take a back seat running his comedy club.
  8. Stopped listening to Toby over a year ago after his show started to resemble a poor-mans Nationwide show, i.e., started reporting on banal crap in South Yorkshire masquerading as "interesting news items". A waste of talent, if I were Toby I'd leave, but then again it does give him a constant profile for his other activities in comedy.
  9. I dipped into Radio Sheffield last week whilst I was off. The breakfast show seems stuck in a BBC Nationwide-Style format, with tedious banal interviews with local people about trivial issues. Sorry, didn't listen to Roney, Paulette's good - But she don't have banf on about her husband. I think I caught that wazzock Jimmy Carol too, he's dreadful, and worse still thinks he's an actor !...... This is shocking :
  10. I only listened to Toby Foster, he used to be good fun, but someone decided to do local "twee" issues, so Toby has to chat to people who have a cat with 5 legs, or some old biddy who was refused curry sauce on her chips... It became SO boooring
  11. Hardly listen now, only to Toby Foster, though he seems to be on/off now as often as that Antonia Brickell bint was. Not sure what contract he's got with Radio Sheff but it always seems to be "random" when the guys on - I turn on the radio and maybe he's on, else that dreadful Paul Walker's doing his show. There's also some other bird who hangs around the microphone generally acting like a gobby slapper.
  12. How were the macaroons topdog ? I went there on Sunday, bought some myself - Yummy. I noticed the market had been "cut-down" somewhat - I guess because of the recession and people finding a lot of the stalls rather pricey, so stall holders may have stayed away. I bought a lemon tart for £2 and some macaroons. The amount you can sample seems to have dropped too, but if you ask they'll gladly give you a sample. I always like to have genuine stuff, and I know the branwurst stall uses Co-Op baps ! So that was a bit of a downer. Better off shopping at a few stores in Ecclesal rd IMHO.
