Building The Highland Cafe

It doesn't look much at the moment, but a new music venue is taking shape on the back lawn of the BBC Radio Scotland H.Q. in Inverness. The photograph shows the framework for a small marquee being laid out while producers and engineers debate the best position for the stage and the audience seating.

You'll be able to hear the result this Wednesday afternoon at 1.15 when the Highland Cafe begins a four-programme run during July. The special guest this week is Dougie MacLean.

I've been asked to do the "audience warm-up" before the programme goes on air.

Anyone got any good (clean) jokes?

    The dyslexic devil-worshipper who sold his soul to Santa always works for me.

    I heard Michael Jackson's death was caused by a hereditary condition known as the Billy Jean....awful I know but all I've heard recently are MJ jokes. My favourite is - a horse walks into a bar, orders a drink and the barman asks why the long face?
