Hector in for Ian Dempsey on Today FM too, is there some unoffical date the stations agree on to let their stars go on holiday?

Fiona Kelly filling in on Playback, Brendan O'Connor for Marian Finucane and I assume somebody will be filling in on Late Date for Fiachna O'Braonain who has been filling in for John Creedon.

Marian Finucane seems to have more holidays than work.

But I suppose the subs aren't complaining.
