Hello all,
Hope everyone’s okay this morning and had a good weekend. Just to let you know that as usual on Wednesday Thursday and Friday, I’ll be back on air this morning from half 7 till 10, with another Saint FM Breakfast Programme.

So, what’s coming up on the show? Gordon from Maldon will be on in the first 30 minutes, to chat about his week.

If you’re wondering what else is happening around Maldon and Burnham today and tomorrow, I’ll tell you about some public events you might be interested in, at 25 past 8 and half past 9 this morning respectively.

At just after half 8 we’ll run our regular studio quiz entitled ‘Dead Or Alive’-and I’d love your input if you’d like to contribute to it (contact details below).

I’ve also got a Topical Tune subject, I want you to come up with the song suggestion:

So if you have any song ideas, let me know-I might play yours just before the end of the programme! You can either ring the studio at the Plume School, Maldon, on 01621 928 046, email:

studio@saintfm.org.uk

send a text through to 84555 (though if you do it’ll set you back 25 P plus your standard network rate and you’ll need to write the word ‘saint’ followed by a space before the rest of your message), or you can leave any suggestions here, on my blog.

I’d also like to hear from you if you have a request not related to the Topical Tune, I’ll play it, as long as I have it.

Well I think that’s it for now, I’ll be back on- in half an hour though, looking forward to it as always!

Hi everyone,
Ben Kearns from Breakfast here, just letting you know what’s coming up on today’s Saint FM Breakfast Show, from half 7-10 this morning.

On the show I’ll be looking at what’s going on in Maldon and Burnham in our events guide, at 25 past 8 and half 9.

John Whittingdale (MP for Maldon and Saint’s man at Westminster) will be back on the phone to us at quarter to 9, discussing what he’s been up to over the last week, along with the prominent news worthy events of the past 7 days.

As well as this, I’ve got another subject for you for the Topical Tune:

So, have you got any ideas for me? Then I want to know what they are! Either call on 01621 928 046, email:

studio@saintfm.org.uk

send in a text (our number is 84555, it’ll set you back 25 P to text me, plus your standard network rate),
or you can leave your suggestions on my Saint FM Blog. One of them will be played before the end of the show, so you’ve got from now until then to get your song suggestions into me.

Also, any other requests not related to the Topical Tune I’ll happily play, as long as I can get hold of them that is.

Well I think that’s all for now, until 7 30, when my show starts!

On today’s show, I’ll have Gordon from Maldon on in the first half hour, who will be discussing what he’s been up too over the past week.

I’ll give him (and you) a few ideas of what to do locally over the next couple of days at 25 past 8 and 9 30, by checking our Saint FM Events guide.

We’ll have Dead Or Alive (our studio quiz) at around quarter to 9.

Finally, just before the end of the show, I’ll be playing today’s Topical Tune suggested by you. If you regularly listen you’ll know exactly how this works-simply read the story below and suggest a song:

Or sending me an email:

I also wanna here from you if you have a general request, I’ll play you anything, as long as I have it available to me.

Well I think that’s all for now, gonna get ready for the show now-I’m on in half an hour, live from the Plume.
