The mud fest is back this weekend some come and join us and the fifty teams who include The Whitby Walruses, Thicker, Slower, Better and Bruce’s bogtrotters for this fun event. Watch as the teams  fight through the mud trying to score goals against one another. There will be teams from across Britain as well as further afield including Belgium and Finland. There will also be a large screen TV to watch live World Cup Football, a licensed bar, restaurant offering authentic curries, pasta and much more. There will be a celidh on Saturday night and we will be there on both days providing the music.

The glorious weather continued on Saturday, but this brought a wee problem for the organisers of the Raft Race at Benmore as there was no water in the burn so the race was moved to Loch Eck, but this certainly did not dampen any of the fun.

Theres some more pictures on the Roadshow page

The Winning Team

 Here are the happy first  DCR Quiz Trophy winners A well attended first DCR Quiz Nite has by first indications been  prounouncd a Success with many positive comments from those who took part.  A full report with all the  the news who won what, who bid highest for the cake and all the gossip very shortly –watch this space 

After many checks on equipment at our Transmitter site, BT have agreed to check the line which we feel is the cause of our problems. Unfortunately the earliest that engineers can attend is Monday morning, which means that we will not be broadcasting until at least Monday across the airwaves.

For our internet listeners, programmes will go out as normal through the Dunoon Observer and Argyllshire Standard Web Site as this uses a different system to the one used to broadcast on 97.4FM.

Of course as is the way, this has happened at the start of a very special weekend here at DCR, so we have taken the decision to postpone all competitions and guest spots that where happening in various programmes till a further date, so everyone can take part.

Everyone connected with DCR is very dejected by our misfortune and deeply regret any inconvenience this may cause our listeners and look forward to resuming normal broadcasting as soon as possible.
