Four White Lies   ( Blog http://jonathancraddock.com/images/M_images/arrow.png Observations  )
Tuesday, 01 June 2010 21:10

Was just listening to Radcliffe and Maconie in the kitchen, in another desperate bid to avoid the mind numbing, IQ draining banality of ITV's Britain Loves Losers, and heard some amusing white lies on their phone in. These are all along the lines of Great Lies to Tell Small Kids, which includes such gems as "When I was your age Weetabix came in eight different shapes!"

1. The man who told his children that his hair was "blown off" by a sneezing cow.
2. The father who had always refused to buy sweets at the garage because he claimed they tasted of petrol.
3. The suggestion that snooker referees only wear white gloves because the TV lights make the balls too hot to handle.
4. And the extraordinary (and possibly true) claim that Bruce Forsyth invented the potato wedge.

It's a really good show, Radcliffe and Maconie - don't really listen to it as much as I should. Good variety of quality music and always amusing banter between the two presenters.
