Geoff Schumann is back on radio

Previously it was mentioned Geoff Schumann was off the airwaves. He has now resurfaced . He will presenting a breakfast show on Life FM.

He says of his new show

“It’s gonna be a great breakfast show featuring talk and music, aimed at listeners between the ages of 16 and 35,40,” he explains. “The idea is for it to provide a mixture and not just deliver 24-hours of death and destruction. It’ll be similar to what I did on my show on Choice (FM) before they sacked me! Basically, I’m back and I’m very excited.”

In regards to his previous position he has this to say

“At the end of the day, I was dismissed because my style was deemed not right for the station’s future plans. And if you listen to Choice now, that decision was obviously right! I assume, I was deemed too controversial, but I make no apologies for that. The thing with me is that I’m not afraid to call myself black. I’m black— I’m not urban.” (source)

He goes on to say that in Britain the Black community need our own Oprah's and Alan Sugars. People who hold power so to stop others dictating to us what we should be or aspire to. Which is true. Lets up we see them emerging sooner rather than later. Afterall entertainment and sports is not what we are all about.

Luxury Ice Cream mmmm

I have a weakness for ice cream, especially luxury ice cream. My freezer always has at least one tub of ice cream. Now that summer is upon us I also have a nice selection of ice lollies. Good thing about England is that for as long as the sun comes out and its summer there will be price wars all those lovely frozen treats.

Which means temptation galore for me. When I was younger living in the states one of my favourite ice cream flavours was cookies and cream (made with oreo cookies) and marble fudge. The only company I know to have cookies and cream is Haagen Daz. So I do splurge throughout the year paying out about £3.59 or more for one tub. So imagine my delight when not one but two supermarkets I go to have them on offer.

Sainsbury's currently selling 2 for £5 and I have recently been told Asda is selling these gorgeous ice creams for £2 a tub. So right now I am trying to stay away from the ice cream sections. Once I start eating a tub of Haagen Daz I can't stop. Those tubs are way too small for the price but the taste makes up for that no less.

Thankfully I am not in London as having had a look at the Haagen Daz website I have discovered that they have a shop in Leicester square where you can go and have afternoon tea. If only.
