Welshy’s Trading Post
October 23rd, 2005 at 06:13pm
Sunday morning’s Trading Post on 2CC is normally the realm of Mike Frame, but this morning I was surprised when I turned on the radio at 11:15 (or thereabouts) and found Mike Welsh presenting the Trading Post. Welshy often uses the line “Talk radio 2CC with the Drive Show” during the week, and he adapted it today to “Talk radio 2CC with the Trading Post”, although I could be certain I heard him begin uttering “Drive Show” at one stage…and then there was the mystery caller, Mike picked up the call and said “Who’s this?”, that call was followed by a “failure” of the phone system, which prompted a playing of an Elvis blooper song where there is some extremely high pitched backing vocals singer, which makes Elvis burst out laughing.
The Trading Post was quite entertaining today, and it got me thinking, 2CC could have Welshy’s jingle ammended for the Trading Post:
Make your sales clear
Still selling them with Welshy, Welshy
Trading Post man on two double C
He knows how to buy, knows how to sell
Welshyyyy
Mike did note that he didn’t know where Kane was and that they hadn’t been able to contact him. Mike also said that he was “not bad under the conditions”…does that mean that he sleeps in on Sunday mornings and was rudely awoken by the telephone? I suppose we will never know.

Yes, I too was surprised to hear ‘our mutual friend’ doing The Trading Post yesterday (Sunday ) .
So he didn’t know where Kane was and they weren’t able to contact him ?
Hmmmmm …….. that’s interesting … maybe Kane has ‘done a runner’ !

PS – If Kane HAS ‘ done a runner ‘ I couldn’t imagine why ….. unless he has The Law after him ( or something similar ) .

I couldn’t imagine Kane doing a runner. It’s not for me to speculate, but I would imagine that Kane wasn’t expecting to be needed on Sunday…if you worked six days a week I would think you would probably make plans for the other day…
Naturally it’s not for me to speculate on these matters, so I’ll leave it alone.
By the way, I’ve fixed the 2CC 30th birthday countdown. The webserver is somewhere in the US and runs on the local time over there (you would think they would use GMT as they sell to anyone…) and I accidentally added a day to the time zone conversion calculation…it works now though.
