That’s going to make you rather ancient rjay as l’m no spring chicken.

I don't feel it (most of the time) but I guess I'm getting there.

I did the speaking course with Geoff when I think he had moved off his on air positions, his partner in crime Don Kinsey (also an old radio man from 3DB) was heavily involved in running the Children's Hospital appeal.

This is some sort of affectation she employs while interviewing people. She doesn’t speak this way in everyday conversations.

Possibly nerves, some people wind up like clockwork springs when going public. Speaking to daughter number two, long distance today she’s doing it!!! 😱

I've heard it with a few presenters/interviewers lately. As I say Geoff would be turning in his grave but it seems like it might be a thing, a bit like in language where we now have "learnings" and we "versus" a team.

Not a big fan...

Edit: Sorry Thomas for derailing your thread, I think you will be a great acquisition to the club both on and off field. Looking forward to following your career.
