Are there still such things as slacks? Or am I thinking frocks? On the QT, I believe Gary will don the Dunderklumpen head during trivial pursuit.Bookings here.

The Worst of Perth 
I believe I posted the pdf link to that when Gary was enticed back to 96fm and opined wether he wouild have to contractually take the cruise.
BTW, his mother died a month or so back – and he was lmentioned under his birth name of Trevor Backshall. You may recall that he declined an offer to co-host afternoons with Tony Mac as he was going to look after his ailing mother, but now that he has been relieved of that duty, will he take up that offer and return to 6PR ?

Isn’t there a person on Earth (or in Australia, anyway) whose name is Trevor who isn’t a dickhead?

Garry Shannon alone was qualification enough, I thought the same dress code applied on the Brilliance of the Seas as for the Fairstar – optional. Though with Garry on board, please remove the option – clothing mandatory.

A truly stupendous worst. A Mediterranean cruise is somehow improved by the company of a “loveable larrikin”? How the hell did Gary wangle this junket and who in their right mind would want to spend time with a middle aged, has- been, with a face for radio? Are the people of Perth so starved of vibrancy that they would fork out dosh for this?
Sorry Gary.

am I right in thinking that at the time that Shannon achieved the highest ratings in history that PMFM was the only commercial FM rock station in Perth? it was certainly before Mix 94 and Nova. So this is like saying: ‘for many years Gutenberg was the most successful printer in Germany.’
although of course Shannon predates Gutenberg

While showing Mr Shazza this post this morning he remarked that it may have been his very own dad who employed the fresh faced Shannon back in the day. I just goggled my father in law to see if there was any possibility of substantiating this, and a search took me straight to a thesis by our fave Prof, Dr Harries phd. Of course I scanned it to find the part that refers to my dear old dad in law, and what a read. Lets just say, thats 10 minutes of my life I’ll never get back.
