An email to 2GB’s Continuous Call Team

G’day boys,

Thanks goodness you’re live on the internet. Down here in Deniliquin the NRL doesn’t get shown on the TV until 12:30am. At least I have you to keep me up-to-date on the football, and to be honest I’d be listening even if I was back in Canberra and could watch the match.

Have a great call!

Samuel’s Footy Tips: NRL Round 1

After some thought (maybe not enough of it) I have decided to bring back my notoriously dodgy footy tips this year. For me, 50% is a good result, so the usual disclaimer applies that if you follow my footy tips, it’s at your own risk.

So, NRL Round 1:

Broncos V Cowboys
Roosters V Rabbitohs
Titans V Dragons
Warriors V Eels
Storm V Sea Eagles
Raiders V Sharks
Panthers V Knights
Bulldogs V Tigers

Dale

An email to 2SM’s John Laws

G’day Lawsie,

How wonderful it is to hear Dale on the radio again. He’s such a cheerful and wonderful guy, he always puts a smile on my face. Great to hear him sing as well.

I know that you’ve had him on before today since your wonderful return to the airwaves, but as I’m not in one of your broadcast areas these days I don’t get to listen all the time. Pity, because if I owned a radio station, I’d run your show.

My best wishes to you, the princess and all of the hand maidens!

Regards,
Samuel Gordon-Stewart

A good service station in Wagga Wagga

An email to 2UE’s Jason Morrison

G’day Jason,

Your story about the odd people outside the servo this morning amused me…it reminds me of some of the types outside the Shell in Dickson in Canberra at night which, oddly enough, is one of the servos which is happy to let you walk in at all hours rather than make you talk through the glass, most of the time anyway, I think it depends on the mood of the staff on duty.

Incidentally it reminded me of something which happened on my way to Deni earlier this week. I was going through Wagga Wagga and needed fuel, and the easiest servo for me to get to once I had been able to stop for long enough to make the GPS give me a list of nearby servos was one a tad out of my way, a few KMs off the main road, the Shell up on Bourke Street…they filled the car up for me! I didn’t think such a thing still existed…a full-service service station. I was happy, and I’ll probably go back there on my way back to Canberra…it’s the sort of thing which should be supported.

Have a great weekend Jason.

Regards,
Samuel Gordon-Stewart
