It has to have been one of those mass blockings that you can do ... you used to be able to look at a parody account for example and block everyone who followed it.

Ah, that explains it. I do like parody accounts and there were a couple of fake Steves! 😆

Came across a poem I wrote years ago. Tribute to my (then) favourite presenter.

His name is Nick Ferrari.
What style, panache and brio
A name like that conjures up.
No Smith or Jones for he...
Oh, Nick Ferrari, media man,
Would you have shone, I wonder,
Had your name been something else,
Like Ford, Renault or Honda?

I wonder if having spuds cut into concertina shapes makes them taste better. Perhaps in Steve's world they do. He doesn't like pasta except the little bow-tie shapes! 😆

And those of us who were blocked many years ago can read his tweets. I never figured out how I upset him because I never tweeted him!

He, or whoever does his twitter, blocked me years ago for trying to help him ! He was explaining how he filled out his VAT return. He wasn't doing it correctly, so I tweeted him politely pointing out what he was doing wrong. BLOCK

Same happened with Jobbie. I wouldn't bother trying to follow him these days. As far as I can tell, he retweets a lot of his own soundbites.

James definitely did a load of block blocking (?).

My husband was blocked by Steve Allen years. He tweeted something that Steve read out on air . He said my husband must not have taken his meds, insulted his user name and then blocked him. One of my husbands proudest moments. :ROFLMAO: :ROFLMAO: (I can't even remember what it was but it was something silly. Hubby would never be nasty.)

Ooh, naughty Nick then! I'd love to listen back, Big One. Does anyone know what night and rough time please?

I'm not 100% because I listen to a bit live and some on catch up but think it was Saturday nights show in the last half hour.

A caller to Nick Abbot on Friday brought up the JRM v Marina Purkiss interview. The caller was saying that Marina Purkiss was all over JRM but to my surprise Nick disagreed with them and thought that JRM came out of it better.

Fair play to the likes of JRM and Nigel Farage. At least they have guests who disagree with them on their show. Doesn't often happen, if at all, with James O'brien and the like.

I'm no fan of the former two, but at least they are happy to debate with the opposite side without shouting them down most of the time.
