You were fine - you got much more into your stride as it went on.

Nice plug for "One Stop Short of Barking" (although not the book) by the DJ at the end though.

Any idea what time this other one's being broadcast? I'm trying to sort out my evening around it...

It was great.!!!! GEoff. There I am speeding down the interstate listening to my cell phone with Freddie having his cell phone pushed up against the speaker listening to you. Also, hoping aht it does not start buffering where I lose you. I heard the whole thing LIVE! what great technology we have. You have a very nice voice! Can't wait to hear it only a few feet away. The music wasnt the best but it was worth the wait!!!!

Is the crazy T-shaped Geoff celebrating at Upminster, or am I completely losing it?

What happened to this Radio Chav interview, then? I was going to listen live, but the music was worse than that on BigL..

Jonny Lyon on his local Radio after the event

Jim Lyon has just emailed me a clip of Jonny Lyon's mention on the news the day after the event

It's a good tip/advice too, to get in touch with local media now that the challenge is over - they'll love to know how much you've raised, what the challenge was like, etc, etc

Well done Jonny!! Looks like Geoff will have some competition in the publicity stakes :wink: :lol: :lol:

BBC Breakfast News

We got a total of 6 mentions on the BBC London News segments of BBC Breakfast on Thursday. We were top story too in the later 5 segments and they used our story to link into the travel news as at the start of the day there was a large fire in Bow which was the headline in the first report.

I've got one of the BBC News segments as a quicktime video clip, which I've e-mailed to Geoff.

I trust he'll whack it onto the tuberelief website...

Fab it would be good to see all the TV stuff at some stage - I'm sure Geoff will be able to get copies the BBC London broadcasts somehow :)

Updated Press Releases & updating Justgiving pages

Geoff has uploaded two updated press releases onto the Tube Relief site so you can still let the local press know that you competed and tell them how the day went for you.

The individual one for you to tailor yourself is here and the general release is here.

For those who have justgiving pages, it's also worth updating the image on your page to include a photo of you doing the challenge.

I'm sure you can find a suitable one on the flickr photo group if you don't already have your own favourite.
