COLIN HOLMES EASY LISTENING SHOW RETURNS ON 12TH APRIL 2016 AFTER A TWO WEEK ABSENCE.

COLIN HOLMES STILL ILL AFTER PROMISES OF RETURNING THIS WEEK. EASY LISTENING SHOW.

Still lacking energy and still coughing Colin Holmes was unable to return to broadcasting on Tudno fm this week.,,,,but a definate return expected next week. His one appearance on Monday did nothing
to alleviate his illness.

REAL FLU STRIKES COLIN HOLMES.

How easy it is to never be ill..... something that has never bothered me over the last eight years of
broadcasting on Tudno fm.  Two weeks ago I was suddenly taken to my bed because I could hardly stand up with a virilent flu something which I never wish to see again. The last week I have been recuperating but still unable to speak properly or indeed stay awake for  very long. You could say age is responsible, but today, finally I feel better and expect to return to normal on Monday with TUDNO TALKS at 10 in the morning. After that I expect to be back to normal covering my usual programmes.
