Wonders of wonders. Wife spotted Openreach 3 doors away...grabbed the engineer who confirmed problems with ' junction box' ....I'm guessing the Biblical storms recently have flooded the box. Anyway, he seems to have sorted it😄 so I hope to get a show done.

Sunday 21st Sep. Hello . I must have run over a Black cat recently. I'm still waiting for shelving....but, my internet/broadband modem/ connection has gone down. An engineer is scheduled for Monday, which means I can't do a Motown Show this Sunday. Sorry for this. However, the new link above should give access to some previous shows should you want some Motown.

Some Previous shows are available by going to nmfm web site, selecting listen again. Select the Blue name of the show...scroll down for shows. Please have a play around with the options..episodes, shows etc.
