Are you confused? Not sure what day it is? Join the club!
However I have double-checked and the Best Day of the Week Show will be on Suffolk Sound on Monday afternoon at 2pm. As we prepare for a brand new spanking New Year I wont be asking for your resolutions because you never keep them! But I will tell you about a new competition in the first hour. Its called Mind The Gap. The winners gets a choice of prizes. Its either Zilch, Nada or Sweet F***y Adams.
The Top3@3 will be 1987 and drum roll please, The Battle of the Barbers. will be on top form. That's' The Up-cycled, Award Seeking Norman Lloyd live from 2pm on Monday, exclusively on Suffolk Sound

Monday at 2pm on Suffolk Sound it’s the Best Day of the Week show with Norman (Mr Gobby) Lloyd. Ok so tell me what is the chore you most dislike at Christmas? Mine is wrapping presents as I am pants at it.
The Top3@3 this week is 1967 and it’s a classic!
Those Italian brothers Giovanni De Lellis and Ciro De Lellis from Francesco Hair Salon and Fircroft Hairdressing are back with, Battle of the Barbers. If I remember I will interrogate Alexa and I will sprinkle some of the very classist Christmas tunes throughout the show. See you at 2pm. Please try to be on time as I will go through the register this week!

Its nearly that time again. The 1st of December heralds the Best Day of the Week show on Suffolk Sound.
Lots to talk about and perhaps some Christmas tunes but don't worry i won't be going mad, just yet!
The Top3@3 this week is 1977. I will put Alexa through her paces and Giovanni De Lellis and Ciro De Lellis from Francesco Hair Salon and Fircroft Hairdressing respectively will be starring in Battle of the Barbers. There's been a lot of talk this past week about testing for prostate cancer. Let me share with you part of the letter sent by my specialist to my doctor. Don't worry but it did make me laugh out loud on the bus on the way home from the hospital. I will catch you tomorrow at 2pm. Try to be on time. I'd hate for you to miss a good bit! Lol 😆

Sunday from 10am its the very last edition of the Award Seeking Backtracking on Hospital Radio Ipswich. I'm calling it Backtrackings Best. I have gone through my playlists over the last four years and chosen the cream of the crop. Its been great fun bringing you some fine tunes every Sunday morning. I will still pop up from time to time on HRI but for now a bit of a more leisurely Sunday!
For the final time the Sunday Superstars will be Queen. Six great songs from the band. The Battle of the Barbers will take their bow but you can still catch them on Monday afternoons on Suffolk Sound.
I look forward to you taking part. You can send a message from hri.org.uk (or leave one here if you like)
Listen on channel 1 in Ipswich Hospital or online at hri.org.uk, smart speaker or on the HR Ipswich app.
