Ive just heard that the marvellous Alex Lesters Best Time Of The Day overnight show on Radio 2 has been cancelled due to budget cuts after 24 years and Im so sad and disappointed. Alexs show has kept me company on night drives home since I first passed my driving test and ventured off to do my first ever few gigs many years ago, and later he was the first Radio 2 DJ to play one of my songs and has not only been my biggest champion at the BBC this past ten years but has also become a wonderful friend, along with his lovely wife Kerry. I dont usually use my page to post personal messages but Im so shocked to hear his show has gone, to be replaced by god knows what, and I would like to wish him well on his new weekend slots and Thank him for being there for all of us nightowls all these years, and for being brilliant xx
