All good things come to those who wait.

I wrote on June 30th and was worrying that my letter had got lost somehow as I had replies from all the other Radio 1 DJs that were in the same batch.

An excellent success which was worth all 25 days of waiting.

Some pictures are from online, some are screenshots and there are a few taken by myself and Nik when we went to a gig a couple of months ago.

From the archives - Chris Moyles

I found this today. It will have been from when Chris first joined Radio 1.
He has changed a lot since then hasn't he?

I wrote to him again recently but sadly no reply yet.

Kym Marsh

I am extremely happy with todays success.

I wrote to Kym Marsh 2 weeks ago and sent some pictures from OK mag. I received them back today . Both pics were signed With Love Kym Marsh. I was extra surprised though that she had also signed another picture that was on the other side of one of them.

Unfortunately the pictures had to be folded as I couldn't get an envelope big enough but Once they are framed that will be OK.

Here are 2 of the pics she signed for me

Special mention

Replies are being pretty slow just now so I thought I would share with you a recent success I had before I started this blog.

It is from the rather delicious JK (Jason King) of Radio One's Chart Duo JK & Joel. Hoping to to complete the set soon by getting some signed photos of Joel too so watch this space.

The reply from JK took one week exactly and I wrote to him using the Radio 1 address which is just Radio 1, London, W1N 4DJ

Jordan

Well unfortunately my first success to be reported on here is a disappointing one.

I wrote to Katie Price a while back but as I didn't get a reply I decided to write again on Monday and sent some pics from a recent magazine shoot she did. Now I was impressed at the fast turnover of the reply but unfortunately my pics were returned unsigned with a small signed photocard. It isn't the kind of pic I can put on my wall either...

I want to keep trying and see If i can get her autograph as Katie though on a nice pic instead of a Jordan Glamour pic :-)

Welcome

Hi, I decided to start this blog to discuss my autograph collection.
I will be posting about requests I have made and most importantly all my Autograph successes.
I will also post scans and reports if they are In Person Autographs.

A Quickie to start the ball rolling

My first ever autograph was of the Blue Peter presenters in 1983 when I was just 13.
