In the times Surratt sore about moving out of London to a town where she knows nobody and she goes through business trying to catch people's attention because she says I've moved to new town and I felt incredibly lonely when you don't know anyone would you do 080-731-2000 she says you can feel like your brain will implode because in that 10 to 12 hours stint with no proper human contact it stores up everything it wants to say I have therefore been so desperate to make a friend that I've been staring at people when I go out waiting for them to catch my eye just so that I can smile at them of course no one has been looking at the weird staring girl yet finally last week light burst into the end of the tunnel when I made a new friend by talking to someone at the gym just one of the many places where you can talk to strangers. Well you know what I'm going to. Do you talk to strangers and if so how often do you talk to strangers when was the last time you talked to a stranger is this right. Right . When she says when life's got you down try talking to a stranger when life has got you down try talking to a stranger. What do you do when life gets you down. Is talking to a stranger an option or did something else work for you what do you do when life gets she down. 807312000 let's hear from you and that life gets old down at some point or other it's just life you know that's life was it Frank Sinatra sang It's a great song by the way you know you're up in April you're down in May he just hoping the June will bring around a time that's life there is life what do you do that when life gets you down 087312000 I also want to talk about the story you heard in the news there with Stephen about the culture secretary Nicky Morgan saying that she's minded to consider transforming the b.b.c. Into a subscription based service something like Netflix you know that you get on the internet or if you prefer something like scar that you get on the satellite but she's looking in a kind of a Netflix model where you pay a monthly fee to access all the programs 087312000 would you make of that should the license fee lease crapped in favor of a Netflix type subscription. And do you subscribe to any of these other television services like scar or Netflix and so on do you pay a subscription to watch programmes elsewhere. Could the b.b.c. Compete with the likes of Netflix. Netflix has got billions of subscribers if not hundreds of millions anyway it makes billions much more than the b.b.c. By the way could the b.b.c. Compete with that would be better for the b.b.c. 08073 $12000.00 is the license fee the best way to fund the b.b.c. Would be surprised to know the b.b.c. Spokesperson said that the license fee was amazed popular funding system and was fixed for the next 8 years is it is it the most popular funding system you tell me is the best way to fund the b.b.c. And what t.v. Do you watch generally which programmes which channels and so have a conversation about that please 080-731-2000 this one I do want to look I don't know if you seen this Sainsbury's shoppers were left raging after they queued from for a last night for a 50 pound Doris and deal you know Dyson being those vacuum cleaners the flash ones yeah. They usually cost about $300.00 quid but now you can get one for 50 quid. But when they queued up from 4 am and there were a lot of people queuing up to get a 50 pound dice in Arkansas are you that guy without kids had queuing up in the cold night air for 50 pound Doris and when they go. Being time in the store they were told they're out of stock Well you can imagine what happened then say xrays is apologizing to angry customers for the what he describes as miscommunication Now this isn't the 1st time that an unbelievable deal has gone somewhat sour and I'm believe a bargain has gone somewhat soured Need I remind you that Black Friday when it kicks off at I care in Edmonton when people were literally punching each other to grab hold of a son for further tuppence a neoadjuvant much they're being charged for it to member that do you remember that this time and time and time and time and time again where a bargain that is just the best bargain in the world maybe kicks people off yeah if they can get hold of their share of the bargain we all love a bargain but what is it what is it the drives people to behave badly when there's a. When is it do you have sympathy for the angry customers that queued up outside Sainsbury's for a 50 pound Dyson deal do you have sympathy for them and out of interest what would make you queue up what bargain would make huge queue up for and why do people behave badly when it comes to bugging and if you have a queued up by the way for a bargain or something and if you haven't seen people kick off. Over a bargain. 1731000. Why do people kick off again have you have a queued up for a bargain of the same people. Should the license fee be scrapped in favor of a Netflix subscription. Is minded. To consider that I'm very interested to find out. What you. Down Do you talk to a stranger for example as this writer in The Times does. Your pleas for when life gets you down I know the bright side of life I get that the wood. When life gets you down and is remembrance of. People who fought in war. And. People who've died as a result of terrorist attacks innocent civilians 807312000 it's talk about all those fascinating subjects would be great if you have these on all of them. Thank you making me. The back. To me. The back. Yes the troubling. Concern. People are. Crazy because when they. Thank you. Ok. To. Be. Taken. They. Don't like. Going. To the. Thank. You. Thank you. Thank you. To. Married men the hard way Justin Bieber and Cher not a cat so we're talking 1st of all about the red poppy which will be launched next week it won't just be remembrance of people who have died in war but also in remembrance of people innocent civilians who've died as results of a terrorist attack is that the right way. To go food is a remember the symbol Markku much of what you think. Morning Don I would say no. I mean someone sound a bit hard a bit callous but. You know I have a puppy that's a different color you know and I'll think the white puppy is a growing on to a. Smart to penicillin I mean to joke about it took about a 1000000 Maine Nanda wrong on that there's a company called force forswear q. And one they're run by veterans but they print Taisha. Predominantly pull ball I've picked military or veteran types and one of the teaches of Tang really well likely is that station says something. Like. We didn't almost join you now because the because you know you could talk so you could talk to hundreds and hundreds of civilians at some point in the conversation will say yes you know I always think about joining the army all almost joined yell at me. You know and. But the difference is they didn't. Do you wear purple mug he had to. Try to clock. Simmons by blowing out meaning no nono and tilt and my best friend. Was. Scolded saw my jacket Tim Rogers 20 want to say ass killed in message Sharif in Afghanistan. So that people think about when on bomb a puppy when I want to jump on a puppy talking. I'm an only soaking to a veteran with a chance for medals a much greater service than all I have and I'll come of all at once I can hold a monocle all the money and go in my wallet and on on my puppy sometimes over the years that's been a lot of money and all the times you know helping families. However much off call it never enough what does it symbolize we what is as you put the symbolize it may be reaching out fall full military personnel that has made an incredible sacrifice and I'm not just talking about people but Dolly I'm told about the people that lived with catastrophic injuries you know and sounder why you keep going you know Gallup every morning and triumph on the positives in the last 4 that any arms and legs you know we we've you know brain injury. I want us you know military types are. I mean lost you don't $71.00 takes a month coming to sort. And no one knows about it if we could win $71.00 people killed on the streets of London would have traffic calming measures and speed cameras and also also have interventions $71.00 men commit suicide last year unknown unknowns about this if the prophy symbolizes casualties of conflict. The sins of terrorism no casualty of a community of a of they all civilians you Niger in the Blitz you know and blah blah blah blah blah I mean. In your absolutely lot of the book on I guess that the kind of victims are going to be a member of the armed forces when you turn your stepping up you know you know. Almost Connell's kill them and it by accident. You know you are standing up for something. You know I want to think that that's the difference in my hall you know they speak well no I really I mean the other thing about the military isn't there's only one why even this I'm easy quiet to be I roll Marine commander or I Berisha infantry soldier or I whatever it is you know it is a tough gig to get in and it doesn't matter who you are you know you members of the royal family got the same treatment on pay company and should regiment selection as your reference Joe from a from a council estate you know I didn't know he was in everyone everyone goes through the truth that journey and that hardship kind of points he into into something more whole again but those young girls who died in the Manchester bombing for example they didn't have the opportunity to step out they may have done and just just the fact if the people that you commemorate you remember if they'd lost their lives as teenagers. In a terrorist attack they wouldn't have the chance to step up again and they don't know it's not bruised I tell you a lot yeah absolutely don't deserve remembrance and I well when we had the London bombings you know all went you know I think I think it was 61 people were murdered in 2 days. An awful 61 runs and I was down on the bridge you know dropped I'm in a real. You know all I've remembered those people. But but to town on this and the heights I think. It's a sadness for me because I think it will diminish the new remembrance of our war date. I think it will diminish the military sacrifice you know it's just another day in another 5060 younger is people will be remembering. Civilians Ok as opposed to as opposed to a 1000000 military men that don't lead to an assistant saying will you know the overtopping I was going to achieve goes what would you want to when life gets you down what do you do try to have a con a positive mental attitude I'm always so costs are hopeless some tongs ought to get a lot calmer said something important to Mel like you he is called a prick up.

And that's all I get from ringing your radio station and it's not always when I'm lucky but. You know yes I am sometimes agitate teach. This type of of tone of where I perceive our little country to be in which direction is governing and why our values are all wrong no you're not ringing ringing the station might me say you relevant and it might and it's a good thing for me because if a couldn't do that I couldn't have an opinion but all I could so stand up and share I think I thought the book and then you know my story scream in my head of just about will explode some songs I'm delighted to Anyway I'm delighted to hear that you are not what about. Went ballistic when they were given the blog in Iraq so I'm implying a vacuum cleaner to have sympathy for them.

I'm your night watchman 807312000 is my number if you'd like to engage in the conversations we're having this morning what do you do when life gets you down what you do when life gets you down do you talk to strangers for example when you have a thing or like my calling Chalfont do you call operators station and make yourself sound and feel relevant 17312000 have you queued up for anything in your life emphatically a bargain a bargain because shoppers Sainsbury's covering angry when they bargain that they were being offered which is a 50 pound vacuum cleaner over 300 pound vacuum cleaner for 50 quid essentially they were told it was a stork Why do people acts badly when it comes to bug you might a fight over a bargain for example as they did in Edmonton a couple years back the r k You might remember 807312000 of you have a queued up for anything and also g. Thing the b.b.c. Would do well as a subscription type station like Netflix and so on the culture is actually saying she's minded to consider that instead of the license fee and also we're talking about the red copies going to be launched then next week this year's Poppy appear will be launched next week and traditionally of course the poppies won't remember those who fought in war but this year the Royal British Legion is including people who lost their lives innocently as a result of terrorist attacks is that the right thing to do and do you wear a poppy 080-731-2000 Daria in Dartford you want to talk about that as well do you want a puppy. Every Yes. One of interest. Well because of the history all in the. In the fight and I are going to tell you the previous call of the because it's. It's a bittersweet thing to make a find it quite shameful that we still have to buy the puppy. Because that did not a history of it was how it was set up a lot was that's not yes I do see at $912.00 this is the full of World War come in which was set up full but it was supposed to remind people of the blood on the battlefield and so on with. Me is an issue was to raise money from all those soldiers that basically were getting cared for by the government indeed there wasn't provision for them so they tried to raise money by making these one penny poppies and you know that the fight that the. One of the that money still need to Aids is wall upsets me because I think the government should provide properly in this day and night but also it is absolutely the the 1000000 that sell to has you know give us a life we've got to die I mean you know we wouldn't really be here without law to nothing loath think it's a myth nothing is a military thing it is a military was you know I was might buy soldiers for soldiers and like your previous caller said we can't give enough because we are. Standing in for you know that that's taking heat across mind sales force had to make us feel good that we're helping people. You know. You can't really put a price on that and is to remember the. The the and I just totally get where you say it's a measure you think why g.m. Then the row bridges Legion is expanding the remit to include people who have died innocent is a result of terrorist attacks just. Think they've done the completely the wrong thing what they should be doing is endorsing the white pulpy full of ideas people because to me the white poppy is you know the red poppy is you know that's the sacrifice that's the you know the hospital the white poppy sign stop sign Cy to me you know the right but the sighing we endorsed what will be for the old all the other you know the civilians of the Stop the War and all the rest of it. That to me would say a lot more comfortable than what life a
