The lone DJ

It's a bit odd sitting in a studio on your own with headphones on, playing music and talking to yourself. You just hope that you are talking to...someone. Listeners tend to listen and not phone, text or email in - but it's reassuring when they do. Nobody did this time. Still, I very soon began to enjoy my short-term solitary confinement -though it was nice when Aaron and a photographer looked in - even though they didn't want another photo of me! Anyway, assuming that some of you were listening, you may want a list of what I played... Martin Hodge

PS. The show should have started with our theme tune by Spinach For Norman - but didn't. You can hear and dance to the band at the Ceilidh For Amnesty International at St James' Church Hall on Saturday 8th November. I'll be calling dances.
