10th October, 2014 Ooooh! My new title is 'Poet Laureate' for Rob Adcock's BBC Radio Northampton Drive time show... What can I say?! :-) To hear this week's poem, click the player below... GK's Peek at Drivetime's Week 10/10/14 So… Rob’s returned, his dulcet tones They grace our ears once more Exuberant, with new ideas And fun, with games galore But more of Adcock’s madness Will unfold in verse to come Let’s look at local news first Some sad, some glad, some glum Like Kettering Town are bidding To buy back ‘Rocky’ Road Whilst the hospital wants ‘Guvnors’ Local folk to ease the load A long dispute re care fees Has raised a question mark And a call for eager trustees Has been made by Wicksteed Park Oh… I give in - Rob’s first new game The Monday Movie Quiz Perhaps best viewed on Facebook You decide if it’s The Biz… And to manage your excitement I’ll slip in that dear Nick Clegg Has pleaded for another chance Will the voters make him beg? Ha!… If Lib Dem exterminators Now appear as UKIP daleks With veg in mind, Ash die-back’s Now being tackled using garlic Wishful thinking that could also work To stop Ebola spreading With airports introducing checks Who knows where this is heading?! Looking, though, to cheery news Phil’s now a “Point of Light” And Wellingborough Prison May just get a second bite… Plus, with plans for lots of houses There’ll be builders on a mission AND Rob wants to write a song So he can enter Eurovision Joe Pasquale loves his pantos He’ll be doing Peter Pan (see…) And the British Bake Off winner Was a fancy a bird called Nancy And though summer’s truly over So we’ve grabbed our winter woollies The dairy farmers still fight on ‘Gainst supermarket bullies Whilst our county’s ambulance service Says its tools aren’t up to date But we should applaud the staff For despite this crews are great! And thinking unsung heroes Leads next to the singing young For Rob’s last game with Annabel Is: “What song’s being sung?...” Top marks, you two, for effort! A game to make eyes glisten Especially when the kiddies Then ask…, “Do WE have to listen…?”
