Confession time. (I do this a lot, don't I, Patsy
)....
I am sitting on a chair, that Gerry Ryan 'gave' me. We eat our dinner from a table that Gerry Ryan 'gave' me....we cook our food in saucepans, that Gerry ...etc etc etc.
I used to be a big G Ryan fan...a long time ago. When I was a housewife, for 5 blissful years (1991-96). I listened to Gerry every day, and even phoned him up to yap on the radio at times.
I won a competition once, (made up a smutty poem), and had to do an on-air treasure hunt (and believe me, I'm no Anneke Rice)...to win vouchers to spend in Brown Thomas (kind of like a small Harrods). I got £1500, which was a fortune, considering as we were living on Tesco value products at the time.
Eventually though, I realised that the same Gerry thinks he knows it all, and he doesn't. I also got fed up of listening to him going on about his posh holidays, while some of his listeners struggled to make ends meet. But to give him his due, he has stayed at the top, for 17 years or so.
Brenda Donohue is lovely though - and she reminds me of Patsy. (although of course she's old enough to be Patsy's mother).
After the Gerry phase ended, I moved on to Pat Kenny. That was middleage. That ended when I got a p.c., though.
GG don't forget you have to spend next weekend with me when you're throwing out insults like that!
