Good Bye Simon Mayo
December 29th, 2009
I was really sad that Simon Mayo had left Radio 5 to do the drivetime slot on Radio 2 ( Chris Evans’ old slot). I’ve listened to Simon’s weekday show almost every afternoon that I have been painting over the past 8 years and he just fits like a comfortable cardigan and slippers while I’m painting. To my mind the most professional and researched broadcaster on radio and never embarrasing. I suspct that he didn’t fancy the move to Manchester from London when Radio 5 relocates in a few years. I listened in to a few of his fill in shows for Evans and he seemed a little too “up” compared to his presentation on Five Live. I’m not sure he’s quite right for the drive time slot so please feel free to come back to Five Live wheneever you want Simon. So next time you take a look at one of my pictures from the last 8 years you might just see a little bit of Mayo in there.
