      Bit like the wee lad I heard burst out into a Radio 2 jingle a few years ago in the middle of BHS!
      (…remember them….)

      “Inwardly I was thinking…. If only they knew their teacher’s crazy interest in those little musical wonders”

      Jonno, if it worked for ratnob in his school…………?
      You KNOW what to do!

        Ah but Mr B. was a cool head teacher. I’d probably just come across as some nerdy anorak. All this talk of school reminds me, must do my powepoint slides tonight for tomorrow’s whole school assembly. (and no I won’t be talking about the virtues of sung radio identification jingles :) )

          Interesting stuff.

          I used to (naturally) programme all the music that was played in the school’s two canteens. Sixth Form students used to tell me how much they enjoyed the jingles over the music choice.

          I would also give staff CD mixes at the end of term, and my debating teams had my cheesy megamixes inflicted on them every time we drove to a competition.

          Since then, many senior politicians and officials say they enjoy my Christmas and summer mixes – especially the jingles. And I can tell they are genuinely listening to them because they call me Geoffy B.

          But what bigger plaudit than the staff paying to have a farewell song made for me by JAM back in 2017?:

          Yep. It’s proof that jingles work.

              The file is a wav file, not an mp3.
              So if anyone has trouble playing this file, simply change to mp3 extension to wav.
