Happy Friday!

We're off for a week and leaving you in the very capable hands of Steve White.

We'll be back on the 6th of August and I'll of had the Google Ban so can you help me with my questions please when we get back?

Don't forget to enter our competition to win a Fiat 500 www.hallamfm.co.uk/win/stoneacre-win-a-car it's really easy to enter and you could have a brand new car for free!

Our Date or Ditch couple Holly & Adam had a lovely time last night and this is them above on their date at Hui Wei.  If you want to play register now www.hallamfm.co.uk/date

It's a HUGE salary to play for this weekend!  Every day is payday at Hallam FM and you could win £1,000.  Make sure you listen today to find out how to enter.  Listen at 8:30 on Monday to find out if you're the winner!

If you see Hallamster knocking around send him back to us here at Hallam FM he keeps on banging on about doing his own version of the Olympics which is pretty worrying!

See you soon love Janine xx

Would you like £540!?

It's yours if you can answer a simple question.  It's pay day every day here on Hallam FM.  We've found fat cats wages and we're going to give you a days worth of their salary.  Listen throughout the day to hear the question and make sure you listen tomorrow at 8:30am to find out if you're the winner!

Holly met Adam this morning on Date or Ditch and they're off out tonight to Hui Wei to have a romantic meal.  Holly used to be a make up artist and Adam is up for anything.  Find out how they get on at 8 tomorrow morning.

We've been talking holiday disasters and Craig brought the bathroom ceiling down San Antonio.  What do you do in that situation!?  Well if you're Craig you buy 4 packets of chewing gum, chew it all and then stick the ceiling back together.  It worked though!

I'm at the brand new M&S today at Crystal Peaks from 12 - 2 and there's £1,000 to give away instore so come and say hello!

See you in the morning Janine xx

Fancy a VIP night out?

We're always looking for new people to play Date or Ditch and we'll treat you like a celebrity for the night.  You'll get your own car and City Taxis will pick you up and drop you off and you'll get to eat and drink for free.  Amongst all of that you might meet somebody that you fall in love with!  It has worked in the past even though you only get 60 seconds to meet 3 people, one of which you'll get to go on a date with.  If you want to play register now www.hallamfm.co.uk/date  We're playing tomorrow at 8am!

Do you want a Fiat 500 for free?!  Course you do, you can enter online and all you have to do is guess which celebrity has drawn on the car.  Don't worry it's multiple choice so you don't have to make a random guess.  They're really economical and cheap to run too.

This morning we were asking you for your holiday disasters and poor Marie called up and she'd been electrocuted by trying to putting her fingers in a socket!  If you've got a holiday disaster story e-mail me janine.jones@hallamfm.co.uk

And finally this morning Every Day is Pay Day on Hallam FM this week and Helen from Handsworth won £420.  Listen out for more details and if you've already entered listen tomorrow morning to Big John @ Breakfast at 8:30 to find out if you've won!

Gillian Jackson won £580 this morning 'Every Day is Payday' here on Hallam FM this week  http://www.hallamfm.co.uk/win/every-day-is-pay-day-tues/

See you in the morning from 6 Janine xxx

The three C's - Car, Cash & Clegg

We played out the highlights from last Friday when Nick Clegg came in to chat to our 100 listeners who were all ready with their questions and frustrations.  There were some really good topics that came up throughout the afternoon and you can see the video online www.hallamfm.co.uk/tv

Fancy winning a fat cats salary for the day?  Today it's £580 up for grabs, listen for the question during the day on Hallam FM and you could be quids in.

It's Friday there's 6 whole weeks for you!

The kids break up for school today and the sun is coming out this weekend.  Two things to celebrate!

We caught up with Dean and Karen this morning, they played Date or Ditch yesterday and Dean chose line 2, and they were very diplomatic about the date.  This is just my speculation but I think they had a nice time but will only be meeting up as mates in the future.  Next week it's a very pretty lady from Sheffield choosing from lucky three men.  Register now www.hallamfm.co.uk/date

Today Nick Clegg faces our listeners face to face here in South Yorkshire, you can tell him your opinions and concerns.  If you haven't registered and been able to see him today you can hear parts of the discussion over the weekend on Hallam FM.

On Monday Hallamster will be giving his first clue out for his 'Celebrity Aiiii Test' you can win lots of tat from his cage.  There's a phone, wireless speakers and a sat nav rattling around in his cage.

Guess what - we're giving away a car!  More details on that next week on Big John @ Breakfast and we have ANOTHER announcement on Monday too.  It's just give give give with us ha ha!

Have a lovely weekend :)

Hot Dean plays Date or Ditch!

This morning it was Dean choosing the ladies and he went for Karen on line 2.  Dean is Scottish and new to the area and they're off to Zizzi's in Leopold Square for some VIP treatment and hopefully some lurrrvvvveeeee.  We'll be calling them at 8am to see how they got on tomorrow morning.

Ahhhh Fred!  I love him!  We chatted to him this morning, he called us to let us know how OAP date or Ditch has been since he played a couple of weeks ago.  He's desperately trying to get a night out with Lynda - she's told him she's in Tenerife - that old chesnut!

We have a massive announcement to make tomorrow morning at 8:30 and you could win tat out of Hallamster's cage just after 7:30.

By the way Batman 'The Dark Knight Rises' was amazing last night.  It's out in the cinema tomorrow and I'd strongly advise you to go and see it!  Best film I've seen in ages!

See you from 6 tomorrow, Janine xxxx

Missing legs ...

This morning we were talking about 'Lost Property!'  Things that have been found and returned here in South Yorkshire.  One guy found £200 in a cash machine and handed it back to the guy who lost it.  The guy was very generous and gave him £40 to say thank you - 20% isn't bad is it?  I think my favourite story was when someone found a prosthetic leg on the road and handed it into a chemist!  If you missed it listen again tomorrow at 6.

James has beaten me (again!) at the Spellings Test and out totals for the year are 19 to James and 17 to me.  I'll have to wait till the school holidays are over to give him a good thrashing.

Tomorrow morning it's Date or Ditch!  Feast your eyes on this hunk ...

This is our single man of the week.  If you want to play register now www.hallamfm.co.uk/date

See you tomorrow love me xx (Janine)

Nuts are good for you and I can prove it!

This morning we had Dr Christian Jessen on the Celebrity Yes No Game!  He's a lovely man and sounds a little bit posh.  We were quite surprised that he's still a practising GP and some of his patients get star struck when they come to the surgery.  If you missed it you can listen again at 6 tomorrow morning.  Oh he told us that nuts were good for us too ....

It's our last Spellings Test of the year tomorrow and it's with the school at the children's hospital in Sheffield!  It's a close one because Producer James is on 18 points and I'm on 17.  Hmmm I've just realised I can't possibly win unless it goes to sudden death.  You can guess along at home what our little lovelies are trying to spell.

I've just finished 50 Shades of Grey and I was really disappointed with the end!  Thanks for your reassuring messages telling me to buy the second book.  I'm onto it ladies and I've heard the Tesco tip off 2 for £7.  Happy Days!

Win tat with Hallamster tomorrow at 7:30.

See you in the morning.

Nipples!

Do you want to know why men have nipples?  I've always wondered that because men don't have to breast feed?  When we're embryos we're all girls as a template for the first 6 weeks and then either form into girls and then boys.  That was one of Big John's questions this morning after he had the Google Ban over the weekend.  We didn't have time to answer his final question which was 'Why does looking at a bright light when you feel a sneeze coming on, actually make you sneeze?'  If you can help him call us tomorrow morning.

Tomorrow morning we'll have a celebrity on the satellite and Big John has to guess who it is.  It could be anyone, an actor, singer, comedian, presenter and he can only ask questions that they can answer 'yes or no' to.  I reckon you could probably beat him if you're guessing along at home.

PLEASE guess Hallamster's Aiiii Test tomorrow, you could win a sat nav, wireless speakers for your ipod and a phone.  I can tell you it's not John Bishop, Gary Barlow, Ricky Tomlinson, Big John and you can guess after 7:30am tomorrow morning.

Well done to Debbie, she won tickets see the brand new Batman film 'The Dark Knight Rises' and she'll be at the Yorkshire premiere this Wednesday at Cineworld.  I'm pleased she won them as she fell in a wheelie bin this weekend!

See you at 6 tomorrow.

Do you want to see the real Christina Grey ladies .. ?

This is the man we've been reading about, flying Anastacia Steele around in his massive chopper, issuing 20 page contracts of bizarre requests and he has the weirdest recreational room ever.  But at least now we can put a face to the errrm - well filth quite frankly!

There are still chances to win tickets to go and see the new Batman film 'The Dark Knight Rises!'  The Yorkshire Premiere is next Wednesday in Sheffield at Cineworld and the only thing that stands between you and the tickets is a question.  Answer it correctly next Monday at 8:30 and yo could win yourself a family pass.

John and I are at Race For Life this Sunday in Sheffield - providing he's got his voice back!  We're looking forward to seeing you there and it looks like the weather's going to be alright too.

Can you help us with the Google Ban this Monday?  Big John will be putting his questions to you for your help to prove that South Yorkshire is better than the internet.

Have a good weekend!

Craig was so excited he nearly fell down the stairs!

It was Craig choosing from 3 lovely ladies this morning, however, he was so bowled over by Kirsty that he chose line number and they're off on a date to Nando's tonight on Eccy Road, YUM!  They're getting the full VIP treatment and will be quaffing Champers!  Find out how they get on tomorrow at 8 when we catch up with them both.

If you want to play we'll look after you, you'll have your own taxi to and from your house and get the full VIP treatment wherever you get whisked off to.  If you fancy meeting someone new apply now on our website www.hallamfm.co.uk/date

The Dark Knight Rises is the final film of the Christopher Nolan Batman Trilogy starring Christain Bale and Anne Hathaway.  If you're a big fan and want to take your family or friends then make sure you're listening at 8:30 tomorrow morning.

I'm thinking about skipping my afternoon nap today.  My dream traumatised me yesterday, it was about my boyfriend and Big John.  That's all I can divulge - I wasn't very happy about it in my dream or when I woke up - weird.  I think I maybe need to give 50 Shades of Grey alone because my dream was 50 Shades of wrong!

See you at 6.

I can't believe she bought a house!

This morning we were asking South Yorkshire what's the biggest purchase you've ever made behind your partner's back.  It started off at a weekend away in Amsterdam for about £300, then it went up to a car that cost £6,000 and then a house for £79,000!!

Date or Ditch is back tomorrow morning.  It's the men choosing the ladies this time and I love the fact it's so awkward it's brilliant.  If you want to play you can register anytime www.hallamfm.co.uk/date

Fancy going to see the brand new Batman film 'The Dark Knight Rises'?  If you do make sure you're listening at 8:30 tomorrow morning.

See you tomorrow at 6!

The delectable Joanna Page!

She's bloomin' lovely and she was on our Celebrity Yes No games this morning.  She's very bubbly and was chatting away to us about everything, nudity, Gavin & Stacey and her dog Daisy!  If you missed it listen again after 6 tomorrow.

Hallamster has a load of tat to giveaway from his cage.  Can you guess the celeb on his Ultimate 'I' test?

This morning we found out that Cliff and Tina from our 5 brides competition are pregnant.  That's her 10th child and they're over the moon!  This obviously means their wedding plans are on hold for the moment.

We have big news coming up in the show tomorrow morning ... TBC!

And finally don't forget it's the Spelling Test tomorrow morning.  Some little ones from our School of the Week will be spelling some words and James and I will battle it out to try and win!

See you at 6.

Guess Who!?

Tomorrow morning its our Celebrity 'Yes/No Game and they'll be a mystery celeb on the phone and Big John has to guess who's there.  We time him but see if you can beat him while you're listening.  It could be anyone!  We've had Jim Broadbent, Karen Brady, Carol Vorderman, John Thompson, Floella Benjamin, Marcus Pierre White .... etc

Thanks for your help this morning with my Google Ban questions they were about cheese, knuckles and speeding!  If you missed it make sure you listen after 6am tomorrow.

Hallamster is our talking Hamster and he's been collecting tatt in his cage.  He's got a phone in there, speakers and a sat nav amongst other things.  It's all yours if you can guess the celebrity on his Ultimate 'I' Test.  We play it just after 7:30 every morning.

See you in the morning from 6.

OAP Date or Ditch

I've got face ache from lauging so hard!  71 year old Fred took three lovely ladies on a date last night to the Showroom in Sheffield.  They had a brilliant time.  I hope you heard it this morning, it was absolutely priceless.  He's got all Jayne, Linda and Margaret's numbers now in case he wants to go out on dates with them and said he felt like Hugh Heffner from the Playboy Mansion.  Fred I salute you!

It's me that's got the Google Ban this weekend. I can't tell you how frustrating it is when you have a question and you can't use the internet.  Please give me a hand on Monday and help us prove that South Yorkshire is better than the internet.

Fancy some tat from Hallamster's cage?  His Ultimate 'I' Test is back on Monday after 7:30 and if you can guess the celebrity then it's all yours. 

Have a lovely weekend and we'll all be back on Monday.

4 Shades of Grey!

I really hope you heard OAP Date or Ditch this morning!  I was crying with laughter, it was so funny!  If you missed it make sure you listen from 6.
Jack Lawrence wrote on twitter 'This date or ditch on @hallamfm doesn't get much funnier = class! Already looking forward to tomorrows feedback!' and Jools wrote @hallamfm I have just laughed soooo much at that !! The woman with the hairy back lol :-)    

Fred couldn't make his mind us so we let him choose all three ladies.  Jayne even told us about her hairy back, the fact she's broken her toe on a night out and she rides a motorbike!  Personally I can't wait to hear what happened in the morning!  Don't miss it at 8am.

Hallamster is back on tomorrow morning.  If you want to win his tat from his cage have a guess at his Ulitimate Aiii test. 

See you in the morning!

Tomorrow the competition is on ... It's the Spellings Test and it's not how to spell it's what they are spelling?  Our school of the week will be on the show and some young kids will be spelling words and James and I have to guess the words.  We get very competitive and you can play along while you're listening.

Big John had the Google Ban over the weekend and thanks if you called in to help him this morning.  One of his questions was about how much things used to cost.  can you believe in the 80's you could get a Mars Bar and a can of pop for 20p?!  Bargain.

Tomorrow morning it's the 'Yes No Game' where we have a celebrity on the phone and Big John has to guess who it is on the satelitte.  Guess along at home.

Shall we let 71 year old Fred play Date or Ditch this week?  Vote on our facebook page www.facebook.com/hallamfm if you think we should let him?
