MERRY CHRISTMAS!

That's our last breakfast show till the 2nd of January (kind of because we're doing a show on Chrsitmas day 10 - 12!)

Ahhh poor Shelley from Barnsley, did you hear what happened to her on Date or Ditch!?  Gaz, the guy she picked on line 2, was really rude and got up and left the restaurant without saying goodbye to her!  What an idiot, he could've at least done a last minute wave. 

So we'll have to wait for the New Year to give away Hallamster's Ultimate iTest.  There's loads of prizes to win you can get tickets to see X Factor live, Strictly live, Olly Murs, a Roberts Digital Radio and Hallamster's back catalogue of CDs.

Right you, have a lovely Christmas and I hope Santa brings you everything you've asked for.

Love Janine xx

Has Big John got me in trouble?

I'm excited for Chrsitmas (five more sleeps) so I brought the presents I got for John in for him and made him open them.  One of them was a Kelly Brook calendar because he bangs on about how fit she is so I hope I haven't offended her.

Shelly in Barnley picked Gaz this morning on Date or Ditch, did you hear it?  His exact words were 'I won't let you down cock!'  He was on line two and we'll find out if she chose the right man tomorrow at 8 o'clock.

It's the festive version of the Friday song that we'll be singing tomorrow, hopefully somebody will win Hallamster's Ultimate iTest and we'll have another £1,000 to giveaway!

See you tomorrow at 6 - Janine xx

Your last chance this year to go on a VIP date!

Tomorrow is Thursday which means that Date or Ditch is back!  It's your last chance to bag yourself a date and spring some mistletoe on somebody.  So make sure you're listening tomorrow at 8 and if our lady sounds like your cup of tea then call us on 0114 221 4444.

There's only 2 more mornings to win Hallamster's Ultimate iTest and all you have to do is guess which celebrity is saying 'I' to win this little lot;

Tickets to see Strictly Live
Tickets to see the X Factor Live
Tickets to see Olly Murs
A Roberts Digital Radio (a replica of the one we gave to Jessica Ennis)
& a back catalogue of Hallamster's CDs

Make sure you're listening at 7:30 to win!

See you in the morning from 6 - Janine xx

Did you hear what Stacey Solomon said this morning?

This morning Stacey said she didn't try mince pies for years because she thought they had mince meat in them!?  So last year was the first time she tucked into one.  We sang her cover of Chris Rea's Driving Home for Christmas at her and she didn't know the words ha ha!  She's fab and we love her and if you missed it listen tomorrow after 6am.

Tomorrow Producer James and I will be battling it out on the Spellings Test.  It's the last one before Christmas so I'm after some festive competition.  Play along at home and see if you can beat us.

✰✰✰ TODAY IT'S OFFICIALLY 1 WEEK TO CHRISTMAS ✰✰✰ I'm SO excited ...

See you in the morning - Janine x

Let's get it to Christmas Number 1!

The Justice Collective cover of 'He Ain't Heavy he's my Brother' is out today and the money is going towards families that were affected by the Hillsborough Disaster.  Robbie Williams, Paloma Faith, Mel C and Andy from Lawson are all on it.

Come on surely Hallamster's Utimate ITest is going to be won this week?  There are loads of prizes to be won and all you have to do is guess is which celebrity is saying 'I' and we do it every morning at 7:30.

Tomorrow morning we have a celebrity on and everything!  Big John tries to guess who it is at 8 o'clock by asking them questions they can only say yes or no to.  Can you beat him?

I'm so excited!  One week to go until Christmas Eve.  I'm nearly sorted I've bought all my presents apart from my boyfriend's but luckily he hasn't got mine either. 

Harry Styles was in Sheffield this weekend partying at one of his girl mates house till 1:30am and even ended up doing the washing up.  Here he is surrounded by girls in the kitchen.

See you in the morning!  Janine x

Ice Ice Baby!

So yesterday Big John and I ventured into Sheffield for a pre Christmas drinking session.  After a trip to the Greystones, the Lescar, the Porter Cottage we went off to Kelham Island.  So you can imagine my surprise when the first step I took out of the house was so slippy that I fell backwards onto my bum smacking and grazing my arm.  It wasn't the best start and Producer James had to pick me up because I couldn't get my car out of the car park.  I then skidded all the way down the main road waiting for him.  I've never seen South Yorkshire as bad this.  Stay indoors if you can there's been so many accidents on the roads and it's really dangerous.  It certainly snapped us out of our potential hangovers.

Ahh you know what I felt really sad when Corinne didn't fancy Alan on Date or Ditch.  He sounds like a lovely genuine nice guy but they are going to be friends and hopefully he'll win her over.

We're back on Monday and I've got the Google Ban over the weekend so if you could help me with my questions that would be lovely!

Stay safe today please and stay in if you can, have a duvet day and drink some hot chocolate.

Love Janine x

How about we find you a date before Christmas?

A little bit of mistletoe, a free meal, transport to and from your house and maybe meeting the love of your life?  Does that sound appealing?  If it does and you're single and over 18 then you HAVE to listen to Date or Ditch tomorrow.  This is how it works.  A lovely lady comes on the phone and 3 men have literally seconds to impress her and she gets to choose between three guys.  BUT if she gets rid of line one she never gets to speak to him again, then she chats to guy number 2 - she can date or ditch him and if she gets rid of him she has to go on a date with line 3.  That's what you have to do and make sure you listen to the radio at 8 to be in with in a chance of getting a hot date.

I'm a LOSER a stupid stupid loser and I lost the Spellings Test again - that's brew duty for me for the week.  Gutted!

There's a sequel to the Snowman this Christmas and it'll be on the telly on Christmas Eve at 8 o'clock on Channel 4.

 

 

It's called The Snowman and the Snowdog and it begins when a little boy lifts up the floorboard in his house and finds an old scarf with snowmen printed on it.  He goes outside, builds a snowman and then his adventure starts.  The new song is by Andy Burrows from Razorlight and it's called Light the Night and it's really Christmassy.  It came out yesterday.

See you in the morning!

ps less than two weeks till Christmas - whoop whoop!

 

Lucy Spraggan

Lucy is off to Thailand on her travels for 2 months the lucky girl.  She was on the show this morning telling us that she is going to stay in Sheffield and not move to that there London.  She loves Sheffield and she's got some exciting plans for the New Year when she gets back from sunning herself - lucky girl!

Tomorrow morning we have some lovely little ones spelling words for us and it isn't how to spell it's what are they spelling?  The kids are from St Thomas More Catholic Primary School will be challenging Producer James and I to a spell off and so far this School Year I'm in the lead, however I lost last week so I need to sort my act out.

Would you like tickets to see the X Factor live, Strictly Live, Olly Murs, a Roberts Digital Radio and Hallamster's back catalogue of CD's?  If you do have a guess at Hallamster's Ultimate I Test tomorrow at 7:30.

Hasta manana,

Do dogs know they're dogs and what are the rules about booze?

Big John had the Google Ban this weekend and he had some funny questions that popped into his head.  He's not allowed to look anything up online and has to write his questions down and they were beautifully random.  The first question was about his dog Willow and if she knew that she was a dog or thought she was a human!?  The second was about drinking, we had a skin full at our works do (well I did) and John wondered if it's worse for you to go for it on one night of the week or have a glass of wine every day.  If you missed it you can hear it again tomorrow morning after 6.

Sheffield's Lucy Spraggan from the X Factor is on the show with us tomorrow morning!  We'll be having a catch up with her now the X Factor is over and find out what lies ahead for her.

Ahhh we spoke to Hannah & Ryan this morning after their date last week and it was what I like to call one way love.  Ryan fancied her and Hannah was checking her botheredometer.  If you want to play register now www.hallamfm.co.uk/date

See you in the morning,

When Hannah met Ryan and Ryan met Hannah

Did you hear Date or Ditch this morning?  I couldn't believe poor Hannah got dumped BY TEXT after 7 years with her boyfriend!  Luckily she got the text just before a night out with the girls in Newcastle so at least she could go out and show him what he was missing.  So this morning she met Ryan and he was on line 1 and they talked so much that the whole minute ran out and that was her date!  He said the most embarrassing thing he's ever done is dress up as the Tweenies in front of his parents - random!  Will it be love?  Lets find out tomorrow.

Hallamster's daft competition has lasted a million years and the prizes still hasn't been won.  What can you win?  Tickets to see X Factor Live, Strictly Live, Olly Murs, a posh Roberts Digital Radio and a back catalogue of Hallamster's CD's.  It happens every day at 7:30 and all you have to do is tell us which celebrity is saying 'I'

It's our Christmas Party tonight at Hallam FM and I've convinced most people to wear Christmas Jumper and this is the one I'm wearing.

I'll give you all the gossip tomorrow - Janine x

Date or Ditch is back tomorrow!

Every Thursday we get single people together on Big John @ Breakfast on a game that we play called Date or Ditch.  One lucky lady has three men fighting over to take her on a date but she only has 60 seconds to choose who she wants and will she pick the right guy?  Listen at 8 o'clock tomorrow morning and if you fancy the sound of her guys call her and try and impress her on the phone to go on the VIP date.  Free food & transport and maybe you'll meet 'the one!'

This morning we spoke to Damian Williams, he's playing Buttons in Cinderella at the Lyceum and it's his 5th Panto in Sheffield this year.  He's that good thay've already booked him for next year!  He's a really funny guy and you can hear him again tomorrow after 6 if you missed it?

Is anyone ever going to win Hallamster's Ultimate I Test?  There are extra prizes being added all the time.  You can get tickets to see the X Factor Live, Strictly, Olly Murs, a Roberts Digital radio and a back catalogue of Hallamster's CD's.  It could all be yours if you guess which celebrity it is tomorrow at 7:30.

See you in the morning!

He wears very tight trousers and he was on the show this morning!

It was OLLY MURS!!!  Producer James had lined up Olly for Big John to guess on the celebrity Yes No Game.  What a lovely guy he was, chatting away to us for half an hour about the X Factor, his music and errrm ironing his pants!?!?  If you missed it tune in tomorrow morning after 6, he's a good guy!  Oh we also spoke to him about when he split his pants ....

Tomorrow we'll be chatting to Damian Williams from the Panto at the Lyceum, he normally plays the Dame but this year he's playing Buttons in Cinderella.  I think it's his 5th pantomine in Sheffield and he's always a really good laugh so we're looking forward to chatting to him at 8:30.

Don't forget at 7:30 tomorrow you could win tickets to see him above Olly Murs, X Factor Live tickets & Strictly Live tickets too.  There's a posh Roberts Digital Radio that could be yours and Hallamster's back catalogue of CD's.  Just tell us who the celebrity is saying 'I' and it's ALL yours.

See you in the morning.

Germs ....

Big John has had a cold for the past few days and he's been sneezing and coughing in the studio and if I'm honest it worries me because I really don't want a cold!  So that was one of my Google Ban questions was about how long germs stick around.  We share phones and it upsets me.  Thanks for all of your calls, the first lady Angie called and said they last forever!  We had another call saying that germs last for 3 days and Dr Louise put it to rest when she called and if you missed it you can hear her answer tomorrow after 6.

WHO IS IT?  WHO'S IT GOING TO BE?  It's the Celebrity Yes No game tomorrow morning at 8 and Producer James has lined up someone for Big John to guess.  He asks them questions and they can only say yes or no  and he has to guess them ASAP.  James has told me it's someone exciting!  He won't tell me who it is though ...

We'll see you in the morning!
