  1. Rough Cider by Peter Lovesey, which is being broadcast now on “Radio Four Extra” (.i. Radio Seven), is excellent but possibly not available on catch up as the link when I tell iPlayer Radio I want to share it seems to just be for “BBC Sounds”:
    bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/live/bbc

    Anyway, if you have a spare hour and a half (or a lot of washing up to do) it is worth a listen.

  3. There's an omnibus autobiography of Roald Dahl on BBC Sounds Radio 4 Extra at the moment.
    Have a listen, it's more interesting / fascinating than you might think.

    It is,also a reminder of how deadly measles was before vaccination ( and still can be if you ignore science).

  5. Back in the 80s I was in my dentists in Wellington New Zealand when the nurse left to answer the phone. She came back a few minutes later to say she had speaking to those people from the US that called themselves phone phreaks and keep ringing her up.

  7. Uh-ho. The Men from the Ministry have been given two different committees to oversee.

    I suspect there is about to be some hilarious misunderstanding.

  8. Twas ever thus.

    The 1991 Little Blighty Christmas Special has a sketch about the Parish Newspaper installing a computer to produce news stories, the journalists are sacked and the computer hallucinates.
