The Handover

This was the first week in Community Garden Radio history that two shows in two different studios butted up against each other. Dan's Reggae Show finished at 7pm, and in his last link, Dan handed over live to tuftii, who gave a rousing speech over Edward Elgar's "Land Of Hope And Glory". It was very ostentatious[2].
