Thread: Thought I would pass this on BFBS..

Hi everyone

My oh whose in the sandpit tells me they listen to Radio BFBS on Sky, channel 0184, theres a number on there that you can send messages. Thought you might be interested to send a one or two or request songs etc to show our support, seeing its coming up to Xmas. Its a good listen too!

Mod edit: added a poll

Speak in the morning Hecate.

Wot about a BIG ONE to all of them from all of us?

Come on Red, Thinking cap on. From all of RP to all of OUR Lads & Lassies and then let everyone do their own thing as well. They are THE MOB and so are WE>

Sounds like a plan, maybe we can all put our messaages in this thread and then mix and mingle and see what we come up with?

Good idea!

...or how about going the whole hog and sending a TV Bluey... ?

http://www.ssvc.com/bfbs/tv/tvbluey/bluey_index.htm

We try to shoot TV Blueys to get your message home or abroad as often as we can. But we can’t do it all the time and can’t go everywhere. If you’re at home, based in a garrison, port or base, or if you’re serving overseas, why not record your own TV Bluey for a loved one or friend? Just beg, borrow or steal a small digital camera, film your own message, send it to us and we’ll broadcast it on BFBS Television. Your loved one will get to see it in Kabul or Hohne, in Basra or Cyprus, and anywhere we broadcast. (But remember: we don’t transmit in the UK).

Think I'd scare the living sh*t out of my OH if I suddenly popped up on telly :lol: but he did mention me using my camcorder the other day, although I don't think that's what he had in mind

Thanks for the links mouse good idea for those who aint got sky ops: and a choice of radio or tv or both

Josephine how about Merry christmas by Slade and a catchy phrase or message any ideas anyone?

23rd Dec - Watch Live BFBS Xmas special on the web

Whether your loved ones are at home next to you, or on the other side of the world, in Iraq or the UK, Bosnia or the Falklands, let them know you’re thinking of them this Christmas.

Room 785’s Sim Courtie will be joined on the yuletide sofa by BFBS Reports’ Emma Davies from 1835 CET, Saturday, 23rd December, to host a live Christmas special you can take part in, full of TV Blueys, competitions, phone-ins and messages galore.

And, for the first time ever, we’ll be streaming the entire show live on the web so family and friends in the UK can watch and send messages too. So get your Christmas greetings and dedications coming into us, and tell everyone in the UK about it.

There are loads of ways you and your family can get in touch and take part. You can start now by sending in Christmas cards – get the kids to make their own – photos or even videos for us to show on the night.

Send them to Merry Christmas from BFBS, BFP0 785.

You’ll be able to text and e-mail us on the night itself, too, of course, and we’ll give you those numbers then.

You can send a message via HERE. Messages will be shown on the BFBS website from the 22nd and you'll be able to view them over the holidays.



Ho Ho Ho, Merry Christmas!
