For some odd reason, The Thingy is blocked on my work internet. I seem to think that the last time it was this early it had the Stones on it. I'll happily be corrected though.

Not out of the question but in my opinion due to the friendship between Lauren Laverne and Emily I suspect tomorrow morning so that Lauren can interview Emily on her radio show.
