Writer's Blog - A Hello From Ryan

It dawned on me that it's high time I got involved with the Lock In blog. So this is it, the first of many posts, from yours truly, Ryan "50% of The Lock In" McCann. It's a strange world to be entering, that of the blog, but an exciting and interesting one too.

The fact is, at the moment whilst term is out, The Lock In doesn't air and since me and Tom live in two separate parts of the county we don't see each other. This could mean that in our time apart, the delightful radio comedy chat and banter could start to wane. If it is a concern of yours then it's a concern you and I share. It would be such a shame if our once great radio show became stale simply because me and Tom haven't seen each other in a while wouldn't it?

What if we couldn't remember precisely how to make the other laugh? What if I forgot how to fool him into believing my utter lies? What if our mutual love for biscuits was to burn out and die?

For better or for worse these issues came into light just last night. I ended up on the phone to Tom. Well the good news is within minutes the typical Lock In idiocy and hilarity was well on the way - with each of us cracking jokes around the theme of how attractive we are and the prospects of people making us sandwiches when we get back to uni (take hints readers). The good news then it would seem, is that even forced apart as we have been, starved of conversation as we are and removed from our beloved radio show too we are still capable of almost instantly making one another laugh. And if you or anyone else are in anyway remotely similar to us, then hopefully we'll be able to do the same for you.

I look forward to finding out in a few weeks time when the Lock In returns.
