I've just been put on the spot by a BBC radio presenter in Guernsey!

She has been smitten by the BookCrossing bug and can't stop talking about it. She's reading out emails on air, and she wants to hear from as many BookCrossers as possible within the next hour.

Listen live on http://www.bbc.co.uk/england/radioguernsey/

Contact Jenny on http://www.bbc.co.uk/england/radioguernsey/contact.shtml

She's promised to join up and present a regular BookCrossing segment!

Listening now. And heard BookCrossing mentioned, specifically a request for audio books for the visually impaired.

I think Netstation just replied to that saying there are audiobooks registered on BC.

One of her guests was a chap who is recovering from a heart attack and I sent her an email saying she'd make anyone's heart beat faster!

See what I mean here: http://www.bbc.co.uk/england/radioguernsey/j_kendalltobias.shtml

There's a Listen Live link on the right hand side. Bookczuk called in from South Carolina and JennyOn was impressed. I was too - she got the pronunciation right!

Bookczuk sent in two emails, that little cheater! One as bookczuk (where I type into the name space "bookczuk (pronounced book-chuk)" and another from Amy, who was without her tea. I even sent one in for bumma but it didn't get read. We did our bit!
