Roger's Profile
Name? Roger Farrelly

Age? 38…not 40 like Leah keeps on saying.

Nickname? How did you get it? The gang call me the weasel for some reason, they do this to wind me up. Working with Lana, Brian and Dough boy is awesome sometimes.

Where did you grow up? Katikati,mural capital of new Zealand,still after repeating calls to the council no mural of me!

Partner? Kids? Olivia is 10 and Grace is 6,also a few near misses in Hamilton back in the early 90s.

Work history? I've been here longer than the stain on the carpet in the studio, I was in radio when Colour Me Badd were popular for God's sake!

What’s the best thing about working at The Rock? Our new receptionist Betty.

What’s the worst thing about working at The Rock? The days when there is no sugar in the kitchen.

Career highlights? Working with Simon Doull (a fine man) and winning 7 radio awards. Also if push comes to shove, working with the current team is pretty good… apart from Mulls.

What’s the dumbest thing you have ever done? Agreeing to get Mulls on the show, we thought Paul Ego was a pain in the ass to work with!

What are your favourite bands? Aerosmith, Radiohead, Foo Fighters, Beyonce (I love her).

What do you drive? What do you think it says about you?Nissan Primera. I'm not sure what it says about me, I do know it is easier to get out of our shitty car park than Mulls' Land Rover.

What do you do to wind down?
Drink cheap cask wine and sleep.

What’s the best advice you’ve ever been given? “Pick your game up otherwise the Edge will be on your frequency and you'll be stuffed". I found that worked.

What’s your favourite sport on telly? All Blacks, go those guys in a few weeks' time.

Which Super Rugby team do you support?
Blues.

Do you play any sports? Haha, have you seen me? Is surfing porn a sport?

How do you like your coffee? Made by Mulls.

Favourite beer/beverage?
Love beer, Heineken... or any free beer we get sent.

Favourite fast food?
Fish n chips from the Grand Takeaways in Orewa, every order takes 10 mins.

Any parting words of wisdom?
Keep on listening ,I love you all.

Good Evening

My name is Justine Lord and I am writing to you on behalf of my group for the Hands Up Charity Quiz. We are a group of five second year students studying a Bachelor of Hospitality Management at The Wellington Institute of Technology. For our Events Managment paper we have been given the task of organising a charity event. The event that we have come up with is called the Hands Up Charity Quiz.

As the name would suggest, this is a charity quiz, but also a silent auction. This event is to support the Wellington Free Ambulence, Canteen and Paw Justice and is to be held at the Intercontinental Hotel on Saturday the 24th of September from approximatly 5.30pm until before 8.30pm (as the kick off for the All Blacks vs. France game is at 8.30pm). After our event our guests have the option to go downstairs and watch the rugby game within the Intercontinentals facilities.

Why are we writing to you? We are looking for someone to host this event and we are wondering if this is something that you would be interested in gettting behind. We think that someone like you will be able to entertain our guests and keep them interested...and you sound good on a microphone. We are working on zero budget so are looking for someone to donate their time.

We hope that this is something that you would be interested in supporting. Please contact me on this email address or alternativly on 0273145176 at anytime to confirm weather or not you will be willing to help us out.

Thanks for your time. We look forward to hearing from you.
