Just thought I'd mention this .
The Wets Marti and Tommy will be on BBC 2 Radio this morning around 9:30 UK time. They will be talking about their forthcoming album "Timeless" which will be released next month and the tour next december.
They'll also test their pop trivia knowledge when they have a go at Celebrity Popmaster.
You can tune in from 9:30am 9th October on 88-91FM, DAB Digital Radio or listen online.

Hi Loretta,
Well I just heard it and think the new singel is GREAT, its very funky, love it.
if anyone wants to have a listen there is a listen again thingy on the BBC2 radio site .

That's great, Willemina!
I will have a listen on the BBC2 radio as soon as I can!
As I heard the news from your bulletins about the radio broadcast, I was disappointed I couldn't listen because I would be at work.
But this "listen again" thingy makes me happy again!
I'm glad WetWetWet is still active in music. As a teenager, I had posters of the guys and especially of Marti on my bedroom walls. Still like his music he posts on his MySpace site.

Congratulations Willemina.. hope you have a great time in London
Also thanks to the Wets for doing their bit for Cancer Research. Cancer is something that has touched my family and close friends on numerous occasions, far too many to mention.

Thanks girls I know me and my friend will have a great time.
The money when you buy cocktails at the HRC that day is going to the cancer charity so guess what my friend and I will be doing that afternoon . Good thing we are also having our dinner there .
I don't want to fall over at the gig........thinking about that....it does depend if GD is standing close enough to catch me .

Are you going to fall for him then Willy....he he
What a diamond geezer eh, putting you both on the guest list for a show you may never have got the chance to see otherwise. Yes, hats off to Mr Duffin, even though he takes the mickey outa Tabnab's accent.
Have a great time Willy.

I think GD was also amused at Shirl's expenses bill at Rotherham.. 45p for the paper!!
(Drinks were paid for when taken, I wasn't that much of a skinflint!!)

Hi Tabby,
Well I think I better fall FOR him rather then ON him, poor bloke .
Don't think Pamela (his wife) and my husband would appreciate if I fell for him but I do think he's a pretty amazing/lovely/kind and last but defenitely not least...cute bloke ...... and heyyy there's nothing wrong with dreaming .
I will have a GREAT time and put on a review and pics on his site when I get back.

Hi Wil

Have a great love is all aroud me time
Fun
xx

Willemina

Will be glad to do that FFL....a hug from each of you is that okay .....that will take me a while but to help you guys out I don't mind I know I am TOO KIND .
By the way GD will be on TV BBC 1 this sunday with the Wets on Stricly Come Dancing and again next Wednesday on BBC 2 It Takes Two , if anyone would like to have a look.
Its really strange to see him and The Wets back on TV again and great of course.
Have a lovely weekend everyone,
Willemina

Wow Wow Wow...thats how the HRC London gig was last week. I have not been so close to The Wets at a gig ever., it was one of those things that will stay with you the rest of your life ......amazing.....
Special bonus.... there was a after party and the guys came to speak with all of us and we could take pics. I did feel a bit sorry for Marti though because all the other guys can just mingle with the fans and I think he avoides these things because most fans would be all over him........its such a shame.
I am SO gratefull to GD for putting me and my friend on the guestlist.
We are working on the GD site to put up a HRC London page with pics and clips but if you would like to have an idea how up close and personal this was have a look at this HRC Edinburgh link...there are 5 songs and a interview there : http://www.stv.tv/content/out/mus...ock_Cafe/galleries/wetwetwet.html
Here is a little plug for the guys.......To Many People in the shops now and the Album "Timeless" will be in the shops next Monday the 12th.

Glad you had a good time Wil, only ever seen the wets play a VERY small "battle of the bands" at a local community centre (The Hub)
Not a huge fan of their 'style' but as local lads and old school friends I wish them all the success in the world.
