Hullo everyone,

I've just read the posts below...

From: "Daz Whitt"

To me, what offshore radio brings is a bloody good bit of
excitement and
interest. Presenters living together on board a ship in the middle of
nowhere produces a unique style of programming that got me completely
hooked as a teenager in the 1980's. It was as if there was some
sort of
connection with those on board and us the listeners on land. I'm
grateful to the Neil and his fellow shipmates for providing me and I
hope other folks with some wonderful memories...

From: Steve Martin.

I think most of us can echo those sentiments. The question is can
it all happen again?
I think probably not, others disagree. Only time will tell.

As a lurker and former listener these posts remind me that it's about time to say something important and I should have said it before.

THANKS

Some of the people on this list provided me with the best entertainment radio anyone in the UK has ever had. Not just,
uniquely, playing music that I wanted to hear but providing that buccaneering spirit that literally thrilled me. I so remember getting up early after the 1987 storm to see if Caroline was still on – and
so she was. That was just one of the moments. Who's that enthusiastic for any music broadcaster today?

So chaps, even if offshore doesn't return. They were glorious days
and I thank you all for a great time. I shall remember it for the
rest of my life.

All the best
