Audio Coffee moves up that gear it said it would...

Thats right people. You heard me rightly enough. The show is being stepped up a gear to bring you events from my community to yours through the medium of 'internet radio' aka, Audio Coffee.

Plans are in hand to visit PURE Radio in the next week or so (A radio station in Stockport). Something that I'm going to make a feature out of for a future show.

This coming weekend, I'll be in talks with 'Brinnington Community First' arranging an interview and *stuff* (I dont' want to give too much away already!)
aswell as doing my bit for the local annual lantern procession - an annual event thats truly amazing in that it brings together several community groups and a great time is had by all during what is quite possibly, the largest lantern procession in the area - and I want to share that with you all... why? because not a lot is said about this area and I think it's good to give it the credit it deserves - THATS WHY.

And it's true that all local community groups,regardless of where they are on the planet, be they big or small, need support because they do fantastic work that frequently goes unnoticed or only gets barely one line in the local newspaper.

I've been doing my bit for years and it's true to say that I've remained enthusiastic all the time as it makes for a more enjoyable experience. I've photographed events and filmed things and been called upon time and time again for these events because of my enthusiasm!! (plus the fact that I'm within easy reach of all the local events)

Radio is a means of conveying events and happenings. It's a way of communicating to a wide audience. It's a means of entertainment and education (Edutainment) and information.

There's no way I could ever envisage Audio Coffee disappearing off ampcast.com - ever. However, I'm more than prepared to expand the content and give it the kind of warmth and glowing feel a show like mine needs. It's called 'expansion'.

You'll get to hear a little of what goes on in my area and get to know it as well as I do. With the backing of Pure Radio and those local community groups, I can do *anything*

Right now, there's a warm tingly feeling inside me because of all this and it feels *good*.

UPDATE:

Wow.. things are finally moving... WOOHOO!!
Next Thursday, I'll be paying a trip to Pure Radio HQ in town (yeeeeeeeeeeesssss!)
I'll report back once the deed is done.
