DAB Radio stuff
« on: April 24, 2008, 05:43:08 PM »
Some mornings you really don't want to hear John Humphries ravaging some politico... specially when you're feeling a tad delicate.

Such was the case this morning and it had been some time since I'd twiddled the dial of my bedside aural companion  eyes:

Two new ones for me:- Birdsong, yes, birdsong. Minute after minute of pastoral delights. God knows what they were but I'm sure some twitcher or Bill Oddie wannabe would know. Snooooooooze.

Second one:- PLR. Hmmm. PLR stands for Polish London Radio...  noooo: Eastern European rock in other words. Listening to it for about a minute summoned images of Polish builders and decorators, PEK ham and Solidarnosce... not a good way to start the day  cry:

How's your DAB radio doing?

Wakes me up to Humphries and co but switches to Wogan at 7.30 to ease me into a reasonable mood.
I used to have a handle on life but it broke.

She is very tired, night flight and everything.

Last thing she wanted to do was come back to a load of washing, ironing and house cleaning prolly...  noooo:

Ooo what was the birdsong one?  It's usually Humphries until Mr C comes to and switches the TV on evil:  he then proceeds to get grumpier by the minute at the quality of the program/the way the news is delivered what is reported the weather reporters.  I have suggested that he doesn't watch the program but  the answer is always no. Shrugs:

Radio?

Wakes me up (sometimes) in the morning.

Pretty much gave up on radio when Kenny & Cash finished on Capital.
Remember being on shift when Capital became the first commercial station.
