Summary

Which of the following would you say are acceptable reasons to not travel down to London for a radio show? a) the birth of a child, b) every train from Manchester to London gets cancelled, c) to allow you to go on the mega lash? If you answered all of the above then you'd be correct - and that final reason is precisely why Producer Dave was up in Salford for today's show whilst Elis and John did all the heavy lifting in London. But despite being hundreds of miles apart they somehow felt closer than ever! In a jam-packed show there's a HUGE #SaveJohn update, a very intense Made Up Game and a lovely chat with someone... in AMERICA.

but in terms of health and safety reasons. That's where I'm coming from.

0:52.2

You don't need to put things in the fridge.

What's been pointed out to me a lot on Twitter is that once you've opened the jar,

0:57.9

the oxygen changes things.

0:59.9

And so then sugar being a preservative, for instance, for jam,
