Hello and good morn to you. Went to The Whip last night at Concorde 2, who recently supported Fatboy at his BBQ on the beach. They were excellent and well worth checking out next time they are in the hood.

Today’s Power Shower Hour song was a classic. Would you expect anything less? Rolling Stones’ ‘I can’t get no satisfaction.’

Had quite an eventful day yesterday prior to heading down to Concorde. Went swimming with Jai yesterday. Not my personal choice but my boy loves it, so you just have to dig in and get on with it. I find it such a palaver, getting changed, blowing up armbands, trying to squash all your clothes into a locker no bigger than my thumb and then there’s the water, which is wet and cold. Before all that you have to get past the miserable receptionist. Why are they always so bloody miserable? Is it the chlorine? Are they frustrated swimmers? Mick agrees with me and says it’s because they’re bored beyond belief and tormented by the vending machine. Mick could be onto something here.

Prior to swimming, I went home for a bit of lunch and a kip, part of my everyday routine. I’m usually alone but on this occasion, my wife Sangy was hiding in one of the cupboards and jumped out at me when I least expected it.
This is normal in the Lloyd household. However, on this occasion Sangy was chuckling away at my ramblings around the house. Apparently I was happily chatting to myself, having a catch up with the fish, Diddy and Doddy and also inexplicably swearing.( I can’t remember this.) I asked for your confessions and your not shy in coming forward. My favourite was Dave, who talks to his cat and his car and ‘makes odd grunting noises.’ Odd man.

And today is World Toilet Day. Hooray! Apparently we spend a lot of time reading on the bog but disturbingly eight million will talk or text on the loo. Texting is fine but talking? I don’t want to take a call from someone doing his or her ‘business.’ I do a lot of thinking on the loo, in fact most of my ideas for the show are inspired by time on the toilet. Again you came forward with your habits; Brad likes a good crossword and Phil has a mirror to pose in whilst he’s downloading. Thanks for that.

Well done to Stuart who won an MOT today with Just MOTS by saying, live on radio, ‘You drive me wild, Guy.’ I like you too Stuart, from a distance. A couple of miles is good for me.

That’s it, back in the morning from 7am with the return of Miss. Andrea Fox.

Morning Glory. How are you? Feeling fine this morning. Had a few beers at the lovely Thomas Kemp pub last night…who is this Kemp bloke? And a lovely lunch courtesy of the very posh Drakes hotel yesterday afternoon, which are launching a new menu. It was so posh, I didn’t recognise any of the food. And who is this Drake fella?

Today’s Power Shower Hour song was a camp footy chant…Pet Shop Boy’s ‘Go West,’ from 1993.

Paul Weller has avoided a fine for lighting up on stage at a recent gig in lovely Crawley but been told that if he does it again, he will be banned from the town. Gutted.

We have musical park benches dotted around Brighton. There’s one at the pier, New Rd and the Marina, all of which have a bench with a set of headphones attached to it, so you can listen to tunes, whilst watching the world go by. I’m sure if you wiggle it about a bit, you can pick up Juice.

Nicola McClean (you know, Nicola McClean) triumphed in the bush tucker trial last night in ‘I’m a celebrity.’ She managed to eat all kinds of ‘orrible things, thus winning a meal for her camp and beating the hilarious Joe Swash. Nicola spoilt her win slightly by asking if she could get pregnant by eating kangaroo testicles. I think your quite safe Nicola. Imagine the scenes nine months on. ‘I’ve had a baby!’ exclaimed Nicola. ‘It’s half-human, half-kangaroo!’ she joyfully announced. It would make a lovely bedtime story.

Melanie and Sarah were the big winners today for tickets to see McFly live at the Brighton Centre but have to make the agonising decision on which child to take and which to leave at home. This is an example of the trials and tribulations of being a parent.

Matthew won tickets for the Odeon Cinema by telling me that Ben Stiller did the voice of Alex the Lion in the new Madagascar film out on Dec 5th.

That’s all folk. I’m heading down to see The Whip at Concorde 2 tonight. Have a lovely day.

Back tomorrow from 7am.

Hello and a happy Monday to you. Hope you had a great weekend. I had a fun-filled one, with the Mighty Boosh at the Brighton Centre on Friday, which was hilarious and made me cry with laughter at one point. I haven’t done that since seeing Jonesy’s spray-on tan. I also went to the launch of a new arts event at the Basement on Kensington Street. An amazing venue with loads of underground rooms and some great performance art going on.

Today’s Power Shower Hour was an oldie, from 1968, Aretha Franklins’, ‘Think.’ A lovely little ditty for a Monday morning.

‘I’m a celebrity, get me out of here,’ was back on our screens last night and the fist bushtucker trial, ‘the trauma tank.’ Joe Swash took on Simon Webbe and some laugh out loud moments with Joe, as he jumped out of his skin every time the starting horn was sounded. Glorious TV. It continues tonight on ITV 1.

Imagine my surprise, when I was reading the Argus at 6am this morning, when I came across a picture of our Jonesy on page 27. He was chatting to the paper about his teeth whitening experience and was surprised even more to read the following…

‘Steve Jones (aka Jonesy) who presents the Breakfast Show on Juice FM.’ Excuse me? Presents the Breakfast Show? He pops in to talk about films occasionally and now he’s the main presenter? Conveniently, Jonesy is leaving the country today for a two-week holiday in Florida but I just managed to catch up on the phone before he flies out. Jonesy denied all knowledge when I confronted him with the article. I got the last laugh though when I released the article was in the ‘Woman-real Life’ section of the Argus. Enough said.

Ant came up with a brilliant song connected to this story. Carly Simon’s ‘Your so vain.’ (‘You probably think this show is about you.’)

Juice All- Stars played at the Withdean on Friday. That’s the car park, not the esteemed pitch. They were taking part in a Charity match, raising funds for a local nursery. They lost 11-4. Not even a car parked in front of the goal could prevent defeat.

Kush was our final breakfast winner for Transmanche ferries trip to Dieppe this Friday. You’ve got another chance to win a group pass with Moody and Andrea this afternoon. Last day today!

Ben Crawford, editor and photographer from ‘You got papped’ magazine, was my ‘Odd Job’ guest today. This is the magazine that paps ordinary people doing extraordinary things. Ben gave us the low-down on the magazine, his job and his background in print journalism. The magazine is also always looking out for new photographers, many of whom go onto do exhibitions of their own. If you want to get involved, e-mail Ben on info@you gotpapped.com

That’s ya lot. Have a good day and I’ll be back in the morning from 7am.

Morning. It’s Friday. Hoorah! Had a busy night last night hosting Dolphin House’s 25th anniversary bash at the Old Market. Great turn out and some brilliant live music, not forgetting the lovely grub provided by Bills. Then it was onto Coalition for Karaoke Rockstar and more ‘unforgettable performances.’ Dave doing Police was a highlight. Sting would be turning in his grave, if he were dead.

A lot of love on the text for today’s Power Shower Hour tune. From 1982, Hall and Oates, ‘Maneater,’ in all it’s glory.

It’s all about the Rock n’ Roll this morning, as Brighton voted for their all-time dream band. According to an NME poll conducted with residents of our City, our dream band would be Clapton on guitar, Ringo on drums and Freddie Mercury on vocals. I agree with Freddie but I’d put May on guitar, Taylor on drums and Deacon on bass. And we could call them ‘Queen?’ Pete, on the text, would go for Hendrix and Jez fancies Keith Moon on drums. No texts for Peter Andre fronting the band.

In more Rock news, rumours have been circulating that Skunk Anansie are reforming, so we had to get the man in the know on the phone- Juice presenter and Skunk guitarist, our very own Ace! He did confirm they are back together and already rehearsing and writing new material. It all happened very quickly apparently. They met over a cup of tea on the Wednesday and were in the studio by Monday. Sounds like a Craig David song eh? Ace insists they are not in for the money and that the new material is sounding ‘fresh and very modern.’ You can sign up to be a friend of the band and keep updated at www.myspace.com/skunkanansiemusic

A little less rock n’ roll is Prince Charles, who celebrates his 60th birthday today. I shared a few facts about Charlie, so we can feel like we know him a little better. Apparently he loves poached egg on everything, he turned down a cameo appearance in Dr.Who and he always sleeps in the nude. I’ve just been sick. I like Charlie but not a nude Charlie.

Phil was our Transmanche winner but couldn’t speak French for toffee, much like Girls Aloud. That’s an overall win for me against all our winners in my personal crusade to out-French the good people of Brighton.

Linda Perry came in to chat about The Snowman Spectacular at The Hilton on Dec 5th for Chestnut Tree House. Only a few tickets available at www.snowmanspectacular.org.uk.

The super-tanned Jonesy came in to talk about weekend highlights, including X-Factor, I’m a celeb returning to our screens and Jonesy Djing at Oceania’s Filthy Neon night in Southampton. I’m going to see The Mighty Boosh tonight at The Brighton Centre and going to a lunch of a new night at The Basement tomorrow night. Have fun this weekend.

Back on Monday from 7am.

Morning and welcome to Thursdays Breaky blog and the ultimate lowdown on what happened on this morning’s show. Feeling ok this morning. I did my first stint of babysitting my 3-week old nephew, Spike, last night. Hard work isn’t it? They cry a lot and demand your attention. I was trying to watch Spurs, I found it all very distracting. When he started going for my man breast, it all made sense- he needs feeding! Right as rain after that.

Today’s Power Shower was a classy affair, Kool and the Gang’s ‘Jungle Boogie.’ Always goes down well.

Wonky fruit and veg is back! The EU have lifted a ban on wonky, weird looking fruit and veg and it will be back on our shelves in July 2009. Apart from banana’s because ‘they must be free from abnormal curvature.’ I love wonky fruit. My carrots are always the cause of some amusement in the office and what about potatoes that look like celebs? We need wonky fruit and veg in our lives.

Local celeb and corrie killer Brain Capron should be the next James Bond, according to Roger in Peacehaven. This got me thinking of other local celebs that could be Bond. My personal choice would be Goth Rocker, Nick Cave. He looks like he could kill a man.

Jonesy popped in to the studio looking like a young Dale Winton. He had a spray tan ahead of his holiday to Florida on Monday but he went a little overboard. He basically invented a new colour of orange. Lanes Health and Beauty were so appalled they rang in and offered the orange one an all-over St.Tropez. This may involve Jonesy being naked. Hope your not eating.

The lovely Elizerberto was our Transmanche winner today and wins a trip to Dieppe. And she out-Frenched me! More passes up for grabs with Moody and Andrea this afternoon..

Jade from the Rockinghorse Appeal came in to talk about forthcoming events raising money for a worthy cause. Check out www.rockinghorse.org.uk for more details.

That’s all from me. I’ll be hosting the Dolphin House Charity Ball at the Old Market tonight, followed by Karaoke Rockstar at Brighton Coalition tonight from 10.30pm.

Have a good day.

Morning and welcome to the Breakfast blog for Wednesday morning. To be honest, I feel lucky to be here this morning after a near-death experience on Old Shoreham Rd yesterday. Flying down the hill towards Viaduct Bridge and discover my brakes have failed. I close my eyes and say my goodbyes and wake up a few seconds later, sprawled across Viaduct Rd. Thanks to folk who scraped me off the road and sent me on my way. Battered and bruised this morning, the bike was quickly fixed but my football career hangs by a thread…

Today’s Power Shower Hour song eased the pain. From 1990, Depeche Mode’s ‘Enjoy the silence.’

I revealed the ‘celebs’ going into the jugle this year for Sunday’s launch of ‘I’m really desperate to get back on the telly’ on ITV 1. In order of obscure, to less so; Brain Paddick (?), Nicola McClean (?) Simon Webbe, Joe Swash, Martina Navratilova, George Takei (Sulu from Star Trek), Esther Rantzen, Robert Kilroy- Silk (priceless), Carly Zucker (there is a god) and Dani Behr (there is definitely a god). Our very own David Van Day is on stand-by to go in half way through the series. He’ll do the BBQ no doubt. He has previous experience apparently.

Pop scrap! Boyzone had a fight with Rihanna! Before you say, ‘that’s a little unfair,’ it was one of Rihanna’s backing band being chatted up by a Boyzone boy. Boyfriend took exception and it all kicked off. I love pop scraps.

Nats from XZY magazine came in and gave us the lowdown on bands we can look forward to on our fine shores in the not too distant future. Kings of Leon and Primal Scream play Brighton Centre and the Dome respectively, in the first week of December. The Streets play the Dome in January and Prodigy have just announced a date at the Brighton Centre, supported by Dizzee Rascal in April. Locally, Gloria Cycles, who played Beachdown, release a single next month and Skunk Annasie are reforming, with the original line-up, including our very own Ace from Juice 107.2.

Sue won a place on our Juicy cruise with Transmanche ferries but didn’t out-French me. I’m getting good at this. The score is now 5-3 to me and an almost an unassailable lead over our winners so far.

Angela came up with the chat up line to end all cat up lines. ‘You drive me crazy Guy!’ in today’s Car sticker call out. Easy Angela but I can confirm you have won an MOT with Just MOT’s.

Back in the morning from 7am. Enjoy your day.

Good morning and welcome to this morning's breakfast blog. I kicked off the show with the shocking news that Juice All-Strars crashed 6-0 last night and are officially relegated to Division 4. I blame the rain.

Today's Power Shower Hour song was kindly provided by Phantom Planet 'California.'Thank you Phantom Planet, your great.

Eunbank has said 'no!'to an appearance on 'I'm a z-lister, please get me on the telly.' Apparently on the advice of Simon Cowell. Eubank went on to say that he's had his fifteen minutes of fame and does not want to be in the spotlight anymore. This is the same Eubank that drives around Brighton in his truck, waving at his 'adoring' fans. I think he's scared of snakes. Also jodhpurs not the most practical garment in the jungle.

However, every cloud...Eubank says no but David Van Day said, 'yes, when can I start.'Apparently 'our Dave' is heading out as we speak. That's the hot rumour this morning. You might remember David Van Day from his burger stall in Churchill Square. 'You want cheese with that?' Remember now?

We talked Mighty Boosh this morning.The boys are knocking around ahead of their four-date run starting tonight at the Brighton Centre. I'm going to see them Friday and they are doing a book signing at The Brighton Centre on Saturday.

Thanks to Roger from Shoreham for his lovely letter (letters? Rememeber them?)and his advice on looking after goldfish. It's been taken on board Roger. Diddy and Doddy will live forever.

Jan was our Transmanche winner today but couldn't outFrench me, falling at the first hurdle. That's 4-3 to moi.

Jonesy popped in for a film chat today. Lots of superhero films to look forward to, including Captain America, Thor and Beyonce possibly playing Wonder Woman. I'm there. Daniel won VIP tickets and he fancies James Bond. Thats the film, not the man. He's just got married and was out spending his vouchers.

Ta for listening. Back in the morning from 7am.

Hello and welcome to another week of Breakfast-ness. Hope you had a good weekend. We had our Juice night out on Friday, dinner at Oki-Nami on New Rd and a DJ off with Andrea Fox at Funky Fish. Andrea graciously conceded defeat. 1-0 to the Lloyd. On Saturday, I was invited to see the London Philharmonic Orchestra at Brighton Dome. I’m a secret classical fan and I didn’t expect to see anyone I knew in the bar. How wrong could I be? They were all in there. Out of the classical closet and loud and proud. Great night, they didn’t play any of the hits, just new stuff of their latest album, I think.

Today’s Power Shower song was an old classic, from 1972, Don Maclean’s, ‘American Pie.’ Nice and easy on the soul for the start of another working week.

How much more fish trauma can I take? And my family? I was scrubbing my teeth late last night, when I heard screams from Sangy in the lounge room. This is not unusual, as she hates Spiders and our house is full of them. However, after the screams continued, I decided to do the honourable thing and check the situation. Diddy the fish, of Diddy and Doddy fame, was on the carpet and he wasn’t moving. I grabbed him, put him back in the bowl and he’s fine now. But how did he get on the carpet? Sangy solved the mystery within minutes. Earlier on in the afternoon, we had watched Finding Nemo, which includes a famous scene of the fish escaping the confines of a fish bowl. Diddy was making a dash for Ditchling Rd and then Brighton Seafront. Thwarted!

Our Juicy Cruise giveaway with Transmanche ferries continued today and Sharon was our winner, although she didn’t out-French me. I delivered the killer line, ‘what did you have for breakfast?’ (In French obviously) and she didn’t have a clue what I was tlking about. That’s 3-3 all now. More giveaways with Moody and Andrea today and again on Breakfast in the morning.

Rachel Blackman was our odd job guest today. She’s an actress who appeared as Charra in Matrix Revolutions. She had a big gun and everything. She also appeared in Home and Away! Currently busy with her own show, she has more projects coming up, including a new night, involving audience participation. Check out www.thebasement.wk.com and for more info on Rachel www.stillpointtheatre.co.uk.

Marissa came in from Doplhin House, which offers alternative therapies for sick children and is celebrating it’s 25th anniversary this Thursday at the Old mArket. I’ll be hosting the event and there’s champers, food and live entertainment, as well as an auction. For tickets visit www.thedolphinhouseshop.org.uk. Or call Brighton 721720.

That’s it. Juice All Stars in action tonight and back tomorrow with a film chat with Jonesy and tickets for our Juicy Cruise to France.

Hello! It’s Friday! Hoorah! Got my nipple tassels on this morning. I was at the very glamorous Burlesque against breast cancer bash last night, held at the Old Market. Great night and all raising funds for Macmillon cancer care. There were some amazing outfits and some very lovely ladies. A big thank you to everyone that supported the event.

Today’s Power Shower was a guilty pleasure. Andrea or the boss would never have let me get away with it but I love it. Backstreet Boys ‘Everybody.’ It went off.

Today I chatted about Britain’s’ most annoying phrases. This is according to ‘experts’ at Oxford University. ‘At the end of the day’ was voted most annoying. ‘Absolutely’ and ‘It’s a nightmare,’ also in there and ‘it’s not rocket science.’ My pet hate, ‘with all due respect,’ you know they don’t mean it, when they say that. You’ll never catch me repeating annoying phrases.

This is Guy on Brighton’s Juice 107.2. Elsewhere today we chatted to Debbie our resident reflexologist , ahead of tomorrow’s Life Makeover Show at Hove Town Hall. We had the final today between Louise and Suriya both guessed that you have 100 sweat glands in a square inch, so it was down to the tie-breaker and Louise was the nearest to our fact of the day; How many watts of power does the brain use? It is in fact, twelve. Louise wins a £500 life makeover package. She was over the moon!

Chris, the swine, out Frenched me this morning so it’s now 3-2 to you lot. Chris wins a group pass for our Juicy Cruise on Transmanche ferries on Novemebr 21st. And well done to Susannah who won a pair of tickets for The Snowman Spectacular at the Hilton Metropole on December 5th.

Heading down to Walkabout tonight for party games and then onto the Funky Fish for a DJ slot with Andrea and a boogie. Get on the guest list by going to our home page and clicking on the Funky Fish logo.

Have a great weekend. See you Monday from 7am.

Hello you. Hope your doing ok this morning. I was at the Dome last night to see a cracking set from Hot Chip and just to prove they are a band for the people, they came down to the Mash Tun for drinks after the show. Lovely chaps too. Hot Chip covered today’s Power Shower Hour song last night. From 1990, Sinead O’ Connor’s ‘Nothing compares to U.’ A gorgeous song and still brings a tear to my eye. Actually more of a welling up.

Today I talked annoying commuters. Most annoying thing is loud music on headphones, closely followed by people reading big newspapers and my personal favourite and one I’m guilty of…dribbling dozers. I don’t think this is annoying; it’s first class entertainment watching people trying to fend off sleep. Whilst dribbling.

And a firm handshake is very important if you want to get on in this world.
Those with good shakes are seen as sociable, friendly and dominant.
Those with a floppy hand are generally known as introverted, shy and neurotic. I consider myself to have a firm handshake. However, my masculinity is stripped away by the person receiving my handshake as they inevitably say, ‘Ohh, haven’t you got soft skin?’

Suryia won a pair of tickets for The Life Makeover Show this Saturday at Hove Town Hall. She also goes into tomorrow’s final for the £500 makeover. We have a reflexologist coming in on the show tomorrow.

And well done to Stuart who won a pass on our Juicy cruise on Nov 21st. Stuart actually used to work on the ferries and speaks very highly of Dieppe, which will be the destination for all our winners. However, Stuart failed to Out-French me in my daily battle for French supremacy. That’s 2-2 now over the week..

I’m going to The Burlesque against cancer Ball tonight at the Old Market in Hove for Macmillon Cancer support. I may be some time.. Tickets still available from the Box Office. Call Brighton 736222.

Back in the morning from 7am. Have a good day.
