Feeling a little glum? Well for God's sake get out to something that will put a smile on your face. Here are a few choice selections.

1. Duckie

3. Air

4. G-A-Y

5. Movement
Celebrating its seventh birthday tonight, Bryan Gee's drum'n'bass weekly guarantees those extra pounds will be gone in two hours flat. The beats are hard and fast. Bar Rumba W1.
