Whether you call this time of the year Fall or Autumn and whether you remember Celtic rites or revolutionaries blowing up parliament, Paris and Paris Live have plenty to offer as we head towards the Holiday Season.
Halloween is more and more present every year in France. So stock up with those sweets and candies as quite possibly someone disguised will come knocking at your door or else get dressed up yourself, cast a few spells and head out to a Halloween party.
If you like rugby, November is a great month in France. Les Bleus take on the Wallabies, Pumas and All Blacks in a series of international matches. You can catch the lead-up in our new enriched sports bulletins on Fridays and Mondays.
As always food and wine play a big part. Autumn means the arrival of Mont D'Or cheese, mushrooms of all shapes, colours and sizes, and of course Beaujolais nouveau on November 18th. So make the most of it and live Paris on Paris Live.
A word from the Editor
Dear Paris Live Listeners,
Well as the cold weather has hit Paris and the winter wardrobe makes its first appearance in the streets of Paris, PLR is warming up with a great new format for our listeners. The first five months have been challenging as the station begins to grow after its birth on 11 May 2004 but the feedback from both advertisers and listeners is that we are on the right track. Survey results indicate that our news service is proving very popular and that the music is great. We are striving to improve every day of every week. Listeners have made it clear that they want a talk show, which makes me very happy, as it�s what I wanted to do anyway.
Paris Live Radio is committed to keeping you up to date with 360 news bulletins per month. Our News Team enjoys bringing you the best of local, national and international stories up dated continually with the help of our news partner, Agence France-Presse.
As a commercial radio station, Paris Live Radio�s success hinges on our ability to develop a radio station that our listeners find compelling and our sponsors choose to support with their hard earned cash in return for advertising on Paris Live Radio. I am now personally running the sales effort and am available to discuss with you how Paris Live can assist your company or community group on how to connect with Paris Live�s estimated 30 000 daily Anglophone listeners. Send me an email to [email protected] and ask what we can do for you! . You will also be able to hear our new sales promotions on the radio following our news broadcasts. The � La Rentr�e � or � Back to Work � promotion of a professionally produced ad made for your company and then played 70 times for only �450 is proving very popular with advertisers. I�d like to thank the following companies for advertising on PLR ; Alliance Fran�aise Mc Brides Irish Pub, flybmi, Budget Rent a Car, O�Sullivans by the Mill (our home), Paris Open Tour (the greatest bus company in the world !), Caf� OZ (Chatelet, Blanche and Lille), The Australian Embassy-Paris (who had more voters than ever before, vote in the country�s federal elections and according to their Press Office � the results of making the announcement on PLR doubled the number of usual voters to 2000.), Les Pyramides Country Club (golf, tennis, pools, gym � you name it, they�ve got it � Enjoy a waiver of the �500 joining fee if you mention Paris Live Radio before the end of Nov 04), GR Interim �(they�ve got jobs for everyone !), Expatica.com, The Moosehead and The Beaver (the taste and sounds of Canada in the heart of old Paris), Mory Moving (they moved me from Australia !), La Mer du Sable, France Miniature, Ryan Air, Bloom, Corcoran�s Irish Pub, The Open University, Hard Rock Caf� (they�ve asked us to build a studio in the Caf� for live programmes), Matelson Mattresses, George Barnes, The Connexion Newspaper, Tower Removals and the Wall Street Institute (learn to speak Wall Street English !).
Please support our sponsors as they support Paris Live and are frankly great businesses and community groups. Don�t forget to tell our advertisers that you found out about them on Paris Live!
In response to some issues of quality on our internet streaming, Paris Live is now being streamed via Radica.com and already the improvement in listening quality is there to hear. A special thanks to Don Foster (our own angel electrical engineer) for putting all the pieces of the puzzle together to give our stream its great new sound!
The situation with the AM frequency continues to look promising with negotiations with our potential carrier nearing completion. More news in November.
I�ll try and get some good skiing prizes for our listeners soon, so get your skis out and tune them for powder snow!
Best to All,
Renzie Duncan
CEO and Editor
Paris Live Radio.
