In the late 80's/early 90's in Manchester, Sunset Radio was essential listening both as a pirate and legit station. Mike Shaft the main man behind it started off as a DJ on Piccadilly Radio. I remember him from the early 80's, when he was one of the few voices championing soul/dance music. Next Monday, Sunset is relaunched on DAB, which I assume means it can be picked up via the internet too, so worth checking out...

As it's groovy Friday, thought I would revisit this classic tune, still have a taped recording of it's first airplay on Piccadilly...

      Lordship Lane Post Office Closure

      By Zak · Posted

      As a result of the Horizon scandal it now seems very clear that the Post Office management are highly disingenuous and not be trusted!  There needs to be a campaign launched to challenge the threatened closure, unless the Post Office can demonstrate beyond doubt that the branch is loss making - and even then it could argued that better management could address this. I hope the local media take this up and our MP  and a few demonstrations outside wouldn’t do any harm. Bad publicity can be very effective!

      Unlikely. It would take a little more than a bit of Milton to alter the pH of eighty-odd thousand gallons of water.

      To the thief

      It actually feels as though what I said is being analytically analysed word by word, almost letter by better. I really don't believe that I should have to explain myself to the level it seems someone wants me to. Clearly someones been watching way too much Big Brother.

      Sadly they don't do the full range of post office services
