On a lighter note...
how many of you listen to the great 'everyday tale of country folk?'

I'm an Archers addict - it's the only soap opera I have any time for...the pictures are so much better on the wireless.

Currently, premature birth is the issue of the day, all of which are sually handled infuriatingly well.......at 2-02pm and 7-02pm on BBC Radio Four.

Don't knock it 'til you've tried it.

No Percy can't say I've heard that programme.

Have you seen the C4 programme on Stephen Hawkin - Master of the Universe. I watched it last week....what an amazing gent he is. The next one in the series (not sure how long series runs for) is on tonight at 9.00 - 10.00.:)

Is old Walter Gabriel still going? Last I heard was that Grace Archer died in a terrible fire!

Always a good listen and I find you can drop back into it at any time and usually get onto the story line. Keeps me in touch with middle England and I just want to see Eddie Grundy come out on top for once!

Good storyline developing with Nic, and her treatment of George...not to mention selfish kid-dult Brenda Tucker...what is she on??

Am listening right now - think Nick is about to be found out. I have listened to this programme ever since it started - and that's a long, long time. Just wish my family would remember that this is one 15 minutes in the day that I'm not allowed to be interrupted.

Walter Gabriel succumbed to an overindulgence of alchopops which didn't sit kindly with his ecstacy habit and Grace Archer..euch..the second tongue piercing went horribly wrong.:eek:;)

Nuff said!
