Prom time!

11th June 2020

Things we talked about today…

 

Big news from the Coronavirus Press Conference yesterday, if you live on your own you are now allowed to meet and go into the house of another family, but this is only one person! Ben said his family are going to struggle to just pick one grandparent so he’s proposing a Hunger Games style challenge in the back garden to see who wins, either that or he will just ask Nick to run to his favourite! Savage!

 

It’s the Minster FM Prom tonight! For those of you that are missing your prom this year, get dressed up, stick the radio on and request some prom tunes and get celebrating! Laura told us this morning that her prom was sabotaged by herself! She got nervous when her crush told her she looked nice and replied with ‘thanks my pits are so sweaty’ WHY. She then received a secret santa that year of picture of her crush in a snow globe. So all in all, it’s creepy and she never got anywhere. Prom was good fun though!

 

Don’t forget to join Ben and Laura on Facebook Live at 11am for the Ten Minute Tea Break! Today they will be attempting the Stack O’ Cards challenge!

 

We are continuing to bring you the latest updates regarding Covid-19 throughout the show, a reminder that we are here for you! Any plugs you need or info to get across, please go to our website and fill out our message board – or just give us a call!

Laura was very confused yesterday as her partner Sam told her he uses Head and Shoulders Shampoo all over. Yes that’s right he uses shampoo as shower gel! Ben says this is normal, but Laura thinks It’s a man thing – no women she knows uses shampoo for hair and body! At least his pits are dandruff free though.

What's on your face?

9th June 2020

Things we talked about today…

 

Ben’s son Nick went back to school yesterday and was really excited to find out what ‘bubble’ he would be in. Although he had a good day, when he got home he was disappointed. He told Ben he thought that the bubbles would be real, like Zorb Balls. Now that he’s said it… great idea Nick!

 

Laura was worried when she returned home to find Sam with what looked to be an allergic reaction around his mouth. It looked all red and sore – turns out he’d used Laura’s ‘Lip Balm’ which was actually orange lipstick. It looked like he’d eating all the Wotsits!

 

Don’t forget to join Ben and Laura on Facebook Live at 11am for the Ten Minute Tea Break! Today they will be doing SCIENCE: Coke and Mentos!

Summerhouse Hype

8th June 2020

Things we talked about today…

 

It seems a big lockdown trend has been Playhouses! Laura’s auntie has bought a playhouse for her grand-kids, and to be honest It’s more like a chateau! Laura’s mum got jealous and has now decided she wants a summer house, when asked where she would put it, she sent a picture of the Guinea Pig hutch and an emoji of an angel… she’s waiting for it to die so she can replace it with a Summerhouse! Savage!

 

Ben’s son Nick has come up with another idea on how to tackle Coronavirus. He has been making potions all weekend with different drinks, his idea was to make it super fizzy to combat covid! It wasn’t until after Ben tried the drink that he noticed some bubbles on top, Nick then explained that he knows Soap fights coronavirus very well and so he added dish soap to the drink! YUM.

 

St Leonard’s Hospice are looking for some Lockdown Lovelies! They have decided it is now time to celebrate the unsung heroes that have helped us get through lockdown, if you want to nominate someone for a lockdown lovely award, get to their website! 

 

Don’t forget to join Ben and Laura on Facebook Live at 11am for the Ten Minute Tea Break! Today they will be doing Pictionary!

Maccies!

5th June 2020

Things we talked about today…

 

Big news today, Laura managed to get a McDonalds when they reopened yesterday! She went in the morning after work and the queue was too long, so she went back at 8pm and got straight in the drive-thru! Best meal ever. 

 

It is House Band Friday! Ben and Laura were joined virtually by Grand Old Uke of York this morning and they also played us their new single, a cover of Bad Guy by Billie Eilish! You can get the EP yourself from any music streaming service and Listen Again on our app from 8:10am. 

 

Ben was making fun of Laura’s silly walk, but she’s hurt herself! She fell down the stairs last night and took the coat rail with her. At the bottom of the stairs in a heap of coats is how Sam found her, and told her off for trying to go down the stairs too fast! Ben suggested using Energi Trampoline Park socks around the house as they have grips on! Where was this advice when she needed it yesterday?!
