Erm, never said it was. Maybe you should look up the meaning of "opinion" in the dictionary.

An opinion is exactly that, an opinion. Lots of people have them you know...you dont necessarily have to agree with it.

This is a discussion thread for people of all sorts of opinions. If you examine them closely, and this may shock you now, they dont all necessarily correspond with one another!!

And thank god for that, as it makes the world a far more interesting place don't you think?

Ok so you just regurgitated what I said.

Just saying people should be free to express their opinions. Likewise people should be free to challenge them. Or just plain get upset with them. Free speech and all that.

First 2 numbers are 7 and 14.

This week its gonna be different and not first person in, but they’ll leave lines open for 10 mins and then do a draw. I’ll post up all I’ll hear but I’m gonna miss the 4th at 11.

I think the main problem with the show (apart from their unwillingness to change some very tired formats), is its identity crisis.

Every morning, after the 9am news, Ray talks for about 10 min about the main news of the day - Banks, elections, tragedies, etc.

This morning, with earthquakes and tsunamis hitting Japan, he said "So, Laura - how do you eat your toast?"

Now, this would be fine if the show is light entertainment, (as it was orignally), but if he wants to be a current affairs commentator, he needs to be consistent about it.

I don't think he does to be honest. The show is light entertainment, a piece of fluff in the morning. That sometimes talks about serious issues.

I have it on everyday and drift in and out of listening. Genuinely like the show. The presenters all work well together and give me a few laughs. Ray can be a bit holyier than thou sometimes but doesn't bother me too much.

3rd is 21... anyone noticing a pattern?

my guess 28,35 next!

docjewel · 11-03-2011 12:01pm

3rd & 4th numbers are 21 & 32

danniemcq · 11-03-2011 12:11pm

They've obviously read this thread and knew you cracked their code

danniemcq · 11-03-2011 12:32pm

54 is the answer anyway!

I used to like Fix It Friday because I'm a bit of a trivia nerd but it looks as if this is running out of steam pretty fast. Too much music, too much inane chat and too much of this stupid Odd One Out quiz. Who the hell comes up with those questions? I reckon it must be a 3 year old.
