Dave At Breakfast!

2.jpg

Dave the undisputed heavy weight of Breakfast Radio...

Wake up to Dave @ Breakfast from 6.30am. Join Dave in his quest to rid the area of dull radio. Listen to Dave as he airs his own unique view about the ups and downs of being Dave.

Not content with just keeping you amused and awake in the morning Dave goes that extra mile and far beyond the call of duty.... whether its growing a beard, going to the Gym, Riding a ridiculously small bike or the gruelling task of copping a quick look at Jodie Marsh's baps! (its a tough job fellas) Dave is the man!

...And feel sorry for Jade as she has to put up with his bad moods in the mornings and make his tea

Stupid games and general messing about every morning when you wake up!!

THE BREAKFAST BLOG

 

Mon 1st Dec

It's December! I'm going to sound old now but where has the year gone?? Jade's off to New York this week. I'm so jealous! Jenny is covering again and she made so lovely mince pie's. Trouble is I hate them, but don't they look nice. Better than shop one's!

mincepie.jpg

Went on the More party bus for a bit on Friday which was fun. The pic's I think will be up later so watch out for them. In the meantime here is a pic of me. Not sure what made me ill but when we got to the Bowlplex I felt a little sick. Really not sure what it was????

Fri 28th Nov

It seems our newsreaders have a habit of dreesing up. Jad has been a pirtate,Ski Barbie and more recently Big Ron off of Eastenders. This morning I get Jenny as Jade is on holiday and she dressed like a Mexican.

Looking forward to the party bus the weekend and catching up on sleep. Off to do the best of show and more importantly brekky. Back Monday punks!!

Mon 24th Nov

I'm ILL ILL ILL. Working to hard and not enough sleep! That said got to chat to Lucy Pinder last week. Which was great for Two reasons!!! Wahey never bored of that joke.

dave1.jpg

Also very happy as I brought myself a puppy. If you look at the pic he's the little fatty on the left. Think I might name him after my dad that passed away in Jan, not sure yet!

dave2.jpg

Right off to write my DV8 article and to do 4Play.

Weds 19th Nov

After the show this morning we had a visitor from a listener who lost his doggy. Luckily cos we are great we did a shout out and he was found. I'll be honest right now I can't remember the name of the dog, think I was calling him He-man cos it sounded like it and Ewok cos he looks like one!

Anyway here he is pictured with me. I'm the one on the right who hasn't got his lipstick out! Clearly the dog is excited to meet me!!!

dave.jpg

What a cute dog! I want one and not just for Christmas!

Tues 18th Nov

In the words of Destiny's Child, Bills, Bills, Bills. I just had to pay for talking on my mobile whilst driving. I accept that one! Don't do it cos you get points and £60 fine. Also got a penalty charge for the stupid London congestion. Even though I paid it, they want to charge me £60. also had to pay my phone bill and my council tax £90. That I do hate paying.

Loving I'm a celeb at the moment, it is just great tv. Looking forward to having a nite in chillin out watchin that! Bow-Yeah came dressed in yesterday as Big Ron from Eastenders. If you don't remember him he was one of those characters that had a market stall and never spoke. He always used to wear a sheepskin jacket just like the one that Jade had on.

Here is Ron:

Wed 13th Nov

Sore throat AGAIN today! Why won't it just go away. Because we share such a small studio once one person gets ill we all get it.

Gave out my new mobile this morning for you to do whatever u want. Text, Call, Leave a message to be played out on the show.

A voice mail would be great, have a moan, tell someone you love them,yuk!, a shout out!! If you want it then here is my number.....

07538 225 330

Was off last week and brought myself a birthday treat. A Bling Bling watch. I love it and Claire hates it, decide for yourselves........

Wed 22nd Oct

Finally the video that all men of Dorset have been waiting for. The Killer dance moves that have 100% pulling rate.

Watch the video and learn and practice and off you go to a club and home you go with the lady of your dreams.

Let me know how you get on and good luck, not that you will need luck with this dance...

Here it is...........Check out the moves and learn....

Here is a couple of pics before and after my haircut. Got slagged off from showbiz hairdresser to the stars Jonathan Long. So he sorted it for his bro to sort me.

Cheers to Matt from Stones in Moordown who is a very nice man and is great at cutting hair, so go and see him. We'll also get him on the show in the next few weeks.

Here's the before and after. Hopefully you can tell which is which. Only prob is I look v v miserable on the new hair pic. Bearing in mind though that I am ill and have been awake since half 5 and it is now half 2!

Tues 14th Oct

As promised yesterday I have just filmed the amazing lady pulling dance. It will be up on line a bit later.

The reason is according to reseachers that women find men who can dance attractive. I agree as well. So if you want the ladies you need to be a bit like this.....

saturdaynightfever.jpg

Although do not hold me responsible for the amount of female attention that you recieve this weekend. I promise it will be better than the Lynx effect.

Back later

Thurs 2nd Oct

More cooking from Coolio on the show today and a final tip from the Gangsta Kitchen tomorrow. Also played your fave driving song in the form of Alice Cooper and Poison. Get in!!!

Lets get all arty. Had my camera at work today and took this lovely arty pic of a beautiful rainbow from the Fire office.......

rainbow.jpg

Isn't it pretty

Back tomorrow

Wed 1st Oct

What a random day. Coolio came in for a chat and we ended up going to Tesco on Castle Lane together. Mr Coolio also loves cooking and for the next week we have "Cooking with Coolio" or as he likes to call it "Coolio's Cafe, Ghetto Gormet". Think mines a better name.

Here's a pic of me and Mr Coolio off of Gangsta's Paradise......

coolio.jpg

Your chance on Friday to win some meat in an old school meat raffle. With the new catchphrase that will sweep the town, "Its neat to win meat" or maybe "The show that has Lamb, not Spam". Not sure whats best yet!!

Tues 30th Sept

Sorry I've been busy. Ok lets admit I've been lazy so here is a blog. Mentioned on the show the secret to making great yorkshire puddings. all you need is equal amounts of eggs,flour and milk. Make sure the oil is hot and off you go. Here's the proof.....

yorks.jpg

Also havn't put a pic of the other half on here for a while so here she is....

Im off for a meeting, can't wait!

Mon 15th Sept

Ok so sometimes I wouldn't turn upto someones birthday party, but if someone had organised mine I think I would. She didn't go to her own 25th as she realised,her words not mine "Im ugly." Whatever made her think that???

1.jpg

Over the weekend I realised that I never get cuddled in bed. Infact women never cuddle men. Its always the otherway round. So the idea is that tonight women of Dorest should cuddle your man and let me know how this was! It might seem odd but it would be nice to be cuddled instead of the other way round.

Although someone did point out that if a woman goes to cuddle up to their fella then the bloke might read the situation wrong and expect something else.

Happy cuddling

Weds 10th Sept

Well looks like we all survived the big bang explosion that took place in France/Switerland. Thats obvious really as I wouldn't be writing this if we hadn't.

In case you missed the show this morning if you want someone to fall in love with you all you have to do.......................................

Is take them on a Rollercoaster. Apparently the rush releases a hormone that smells that makes someone fancy you. Although I'll be honest everytime time I go on a rollercoaster I release a smell, but it def wouldn't make someone fancy me.

By the way if you everywant a day off work you can. Just print off the voucher below and off you go. Although I don't accept any blame if you loose your job.

Mon 8th Sept

I'm Back after a week and a half off. Its actually really good to be back. Didn't miss getting up but missed doing the show(How Sad)!

Since I've been away I've noticed that I am no longer on the homepage which I'll have to sort out. Miss seeing my ugly mug on the left handside!

I've noticed recently a rise in the amount of Chuggers in Town. Thats a Charity Mugger by the way and here is a pic of one so you know to avoid them.

mail.jpg

Also moved Flat which is a pimp flat with a remote control for the lights and its own wine fridge. How nice!

Til tomorrow

Thurs 26th Aug

One more day then a week and a half off. I really need it! It was the first weekend of my Fire Fantasy Football team. And I got 5 points and 2nd from bottom. Only Daniel Baker is below me on -1 and he knows sod all about football.

If you are taking part don't waste your money on my chump striker Alfonso Alves pictured below.

1.jpg

Infact don't buy any Boro players including the hansome chap David Wheater. Probably the secound ugylist footballer of all time. That title goes to Ian Dowie. If you can think of more let me know.

3.jpg

2.jpg

Off now to do some work!

Back tomorrow

Thurs 21st Aug

Talking about bikes that I had when I was younger. Here's a pic of my first bike, actually a hand me down from my sister. It was called a Budgie, like a mini Chopper.

1.jpg

So can't wait for the weekend. Its so dark and wet in the mornings and not fun getting up at 5.30. Had a busy day yesterday with the other half. Had and nice meal at Room 6 and before that the other half went and had her lip waxed. Here she is before.....

2.jpg

Thurs 14th Aug

I neeeeeed to tidy my desk it is a mess. Full of paper, CDs, food wrappers and just a mess. Here's a pic to prove....

Watched that Embrassing illness programme last night! Why the hell would you go on there so everyone knows your problem??? One guy had bad piles for 40 years. Another guy had athletes foot which was more like foot rot and another woman had a v v v smelly problem!

Back tomorrow with a tidy desk pic and pleased that its Friday and closer to me having some time off.

Mon 11th Aug

Aggggggggggggggghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

I'm annoyed right now!!!!! Anyway Bow-Yeah is back from her week off. I would say looking refreshed, but she forgot her make up.

She got back last night at 8 and realised she left it back home. So decided to get up early this morning and get some from the 24 hour Tesco. Which was shut. Therefore its not really a 24 hour Tesco.

I wish it was open as I had to see her without the make-up. I took a pic of her so Im not the only one that has to suffer that.

Here is the Bow without her make-up....

Picture-1.jpg

Got the quiz at Dundee's tonight. It's £1 to enter and we double the winnings. If half a million of you lot turn up you will win a Million.

Lets see how many of you read this. If you do then come down tonight and say the password "I want you children" and I'll buy you drinks all night.

Tues 5th Aug

Off to look at some holidays as I really need one and to look at houses, which is dull!!

Got sent this link which if you click on can turn your face into this below:

dave.jpg

Here's me as a Chimp, Old Man, Japanese Manga Cartoon Character and a Caribbean man.

Back tomorrow with more chances to win the bike and me talking.

Have a great day

Wed 30th July

To anyone that has downloaded the Roadkill Bingo Card you might want to take a trip down the Wessex Way near the Alice in Wonderland turn off. If you do then you can tick off a Fox, off of your card!

Been to Fitness First twice already this week and going again this afternoon for some circuit training. Already I've noticed that the arms and biceps are getting bigger. If you would like a ticket to the gun show get them now as they are selling fast. Those of you who can't, here is a picture of the arms taken after the show this morning.....

bigarms1.jpg

Off to do 4 Play for tomorrow

Thurs 24th July

YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!! I have doubled the listeners on the show!!  

On the show this morning listener Doug noticed that there is lots of roadkill about at the moment. So I suggested a new game to play on the way to work.... RoadKill Bingo

You tick off the animals that you see by the road and the first to a house wins.

If you want to play then the card is below for you to play...

Roadkill-Bingo.jpg

That will do cos I'm off to the gym

Back tomorrow

Tues 15th July

Im trying to lose the little belly ready for a holiday. Need to buff up and get down the Gym. So I've started by cutting out all the Rustler burgers, Kinder Maxi bars and crisps that I would eat throughout the morning after the show. I've also started to eat cereal in the mornings and brought fruit.

Speaking of which got sent some fruit this morning from Gary who works for Mark Hall. Here is a picture.........

1.jpg

What lovely plums!!!

Not sure if I can actually get home today cos Sharon Haze had nicked and hidden my keys. Its revenge for me covering all her stuff in condoms this morning.........

2.jpg

Just had a call from the other half having a go at me cos I didn't call her. I thought I would let her have a lay in, but apparently I was supposed to wake her up. To get my own back heres a pic of her.......

3.jpg

Back tomorrow

Tues 8th July

We did a Fire sweepstake for the Euro 08 championships. Which was won by listener Lisa. She came in on Friday to collect her £15 winnings, it would have been £16 but listener Adam didn't send us his £1.

And here is the lovely Lisa with her winnings.

11.jpg

12.jpg

Tried to wind up Niall Mahoney this morning by pretending to give out his mobile number. We got listeners to call up and say the following.... Hello is that Niall, Dave just gave out your number on the radio!

We recorded this then called him up to play it down the phone to him, expect he was awake and we got rumbled.

I'll leave you with this advert that is on the radio and TV at the moment.

Listen Here  

Thurs 3rd July

Hello bloggers (if thats what your called) or maybe it should be hello fellow geeks???

An obvious fact this morning. Women hate mens feet! I agree feet are big flappy gammon like and sick! To any women reading this, us men hate your feet as well. At least our toes are supposed to be hairy. By the way I have 7 hairs on my right toe and 11 and the left.

Just asked Niall if I could take a pic of his feet to prove that feet are gross, so here is Nialls feet......

feet.jpg

Also we have a load of XXL Fire T-shirts so we offered them up on the text. With 40 takers I'm now going to be busy for the rest of the day posting them out. Sometimes I wish I could keep my mouth shut!

So if your a biggie or want them as a night dress let me know. Here I am below modelling them as a night dress.

Back tomorrow

Weds 2nd July

There is this age old arguement every year that exams are getting easier!

So we put this to the test. We recreated the 11+ exam that old people (your parents) sat. Nicky from Winton failed hers years ago and had to go to Thick school, instead of the clever one.

It was her Vs Bow-Yeah and Bow won. Proving that exams are not easier and also that Nicky is still stupid.

So far there isn't a pic for the blog today. Wait a bit....................................................................... ..........................................................................

Lets keep everyone happy with a couple of pics:

Tues 1st July

I'm back!!!

Went home for a week to chill out. The much needed break! Was a bit scary towards the end of the week as the other half came up to visit. Luckily everyone got on, mum liked her, she liked mum and most important big Sister gave a thumbs up!!

Highlights of the week include a visit to Kessingland Wildlife Park which included watching Chimps havin it off or grooming each other as we told my nephews and also meeting the Beach Bunny.

I used to work on a radio station back home called The Beach 103.4FM. When I first started doing this job the presenters had to take it in turns to dress up as the Beach bunny. Mostly it was me cos I was the tea boy and only had one show on a Saturday night when I was called Ultimate Dave. Thanks Simon Tims!

Anyway here is me and the bunny. Whoever that is in the outfit, don't worry radio life can only get better.

Weds 18th June

Just ahead of Wimbledon I am ahead in a tennis challenge between me and the other half. I won the first set by 7 games to 5 and ahead in the second by 5 games to 4 I think??

Its slighty bad that the scores are very close although you do have to take into account that nearly qualified for Wimbledon and she has a UK Champion and once played Cliff Richard on Centre court. Evidence for that will be online tomorrow when she sends me the pic to prove it!

Went for a wee after the show this morning and noticed 4 grey hairs. This is not good. Im getting worried, but the more I worry the more they go grey. I can't win!

So here is how I might look soon.....................

Lucky I bagged myself I lovely lady or in a few years I'd have no chance!

Fri 13th June

Just been listening to some power ballads in the office my fave being Starship and here are the words if you ever want to singalong:

Looking in your eyes I see a paradise

This world that Ive found

Is too good to be true

Standing here beside you

Want so much to give you

This love in my heart that Im feeling for you

 

Let em say were crazy, I dont care about that

Put your hand in my hand baby

Dont ever look back

Let the world around us just fall apart

Baby we can make it if were heart to heart

 

Chorus:

And we can build this dream together

Standing strong forever

Nothings gonna stop us now

And if this world runs out of lovers

Well still have each other

Nothings gonna stop us, nothings gonna stop us now

 

Im so glad I found you

Im not gonna lose you

Whatever it takes I will stay here with you

Take it to the good times

See it through the bad times

Whatever it takes is what Im gonna do

 

Let em say were crazy, what do they know

Put your arms around me baby

Dont ever let go

Let the world around us just fall apart

Baby we can make it if were heart to heart

 

And we can build this dream together

Standing strong forever

Nothings gonna stop us now

And if this world runs out of lovers

Well still have each other

Nothings gonna stop us, nothings gonna stop us

 

Ooh, all that I need is you

All that I ever need

And all that I want to do

Is hold you forever, ever and ever, hey

 

(guitar solo)

 

And we can build this dream together

Standing strong forever

Nothings gonna stop us now

And if this world runs out of lovers

Well still have each other

Nothings gonna stop us

Nothings gonna stop us, whoa

Nothings gonna stop us now, oh no

 

Hey baby, I know, hey baby, nothings gonna stop us

Hey baby, woo, nothing, hey baby

Nothings gonna stop us now yeah

 

There u go have fun with that one!

Off to record the Sunday Best of show in a bit. Unlike most radio stations and shows I admit that I record that show. Lets face it I work and have to get up at 5am and so to work another day would finish me off.

Right off now to sort out my relationship

Dave

Thurs 12th June

Worked out this morning that hairdressers and Mum's would make great spys! This after some spy left important documents about Iraq on a train. Mum's would never do that and if they did they would remember where they left them.

As for hairdressers we could send them in and get them to extract out info whilst cutting hair..... " Day off Work", "Going on holiday this year", "Where are those nuclear bombs"? Think that would work!

Also came up with a great name for a Heavy Metal group as its the Download Festival this week. Mine wo/Users/bethmcdermott/Desktop/TextAlert.mp3ulk be called "Death By Chocolate". Rock on!

If you want me as your text alert instead of the Biddy then download it here: CLICK HERE   Back Tomorrow

Thurs 5th June

Hi guys here is a blog It went down so well this morning with over 100 of you wanting the Biddy as your text alert so here you go then. If you want to have the biddy saying "Hello my love its me Betty" as your text alert then click below and do whatever you have to do to get it on your mobile!

Listen Again

And watch out for her as she is fast being a big star. In case you don't know what she looks like then here is the Biddy............

Looking tanned after her week away in Benidorm with Niall Mahoney. Although he swears that nothing happened during their week together.

Back tomorrow

Dave

Tues 27th May

You may have heard us mention this on the show, or maybe not?? This Sunday me and Jade are sorting out a rounders game. Here is all the info that you need to know....................

This Sunday 1st June at Merrick Park @ 2pm

Bring yourselves and as many people you like, or don't like!

Some food might be nice and a few drinks maybe??

Also Jade keeps going on about bringing a rug to have the picnic on, I think one of those tartan rugs should cover it!

Still lovin the Nelly and Fergie song "Party People" and to honour it we have made a Party People Hat which we wear when we play it. Here is Jade modelling the Party People Hat....... jade.jpg
