35 years old; divorced; breakfast radio DJ; struggling with new found singledom and in need of friends and maybe more; thinks he's funny; enthusiastic beyond normality; cheesy with extra cheddar! Does he have just a face for radio, one ponders ahead of the date. Photos on profile are of Mr Breakfast Radio DJ in action behind the mic in the am!!! Since initial contact from him, he has inundated me with texts, pictures of him at work and one liners and jokes...and constantly requested me to send him more photos, a request I have ignored! I may need sedating to get through this one!
The Date
Coffee. Mr Breakfast Radio DJ has a tendency to text me at the very anti-social hour of 5:30am! Er hello?...He does open his text with a "apol" for the early message but still feels compelled to act as my new found alarm clock! You know the sort...yes that's right, the one you hit snooze on several times before throwing it across the bedroom, preferably hitting the wall and smashing it into many little pieces...that's how I already feel about Mr BRDJ! So back to the date. We meet outside a coffee shop. Mr BRDJ looks very excitable, he grinning, well almost gurning at me. He's taller and lankier than his picture portrayed. He looks pretty tired as well...oh and yes he's kitted out in his corporate radio merchandise....he's a walkiong advert for his local radio station! Then he starts, he's obviously been prepping for out little rendezvous because anyone would think we're live on air, as he bamboozles me with a tirade of jokes, quips, and re-counts radio interviews he's been involved in. Each time I try to intercede with some of my contribution to this one way steam train conversation from Mr BRDJ, he astounds me by saying "hold the line caller" he is telling me to hold the line!!! OH MY Goodness this guy is deluded...demented...he is in a constant world of radio jargon..jingles...dubbing...donut...fader....mixer...promo....sweeper...
splice....and then just when I think this date can't get much worse...he comes out with the following...."Don't think I'm looking for a jump...just cos I'm on the radio! I mean I wouldn't say no but I would quite like to find a someone special." At that point...it was time to get the bill and go our very separate ways. However, I couldn't help but tell him I had rush home as I was big fan of radio 2 and Chris Evans the genius radio DJ guru was on shortly....let's just say we were on VERY different wavelengths...still searching....
