It's not often I think seriously about repairing the bust soundcard on my computer! Better have a go tonight - thanks for those, John.
All best, Gavin
Ah. With your recent post about the fate of your TV and Radio 4 I was thinking of you specifically when I posted that.
I thought Phil Cooper might be interested in the potato piece too.
Managed to find time to listen to the links John , and very interesting too, particularly the Peruvian potato growers. What a charming accent you have John ;D
Yes, magpie, a mixture of Herts/Essex border and Vermont. A charming, charming mix. Oh, you mean him!!!!
You mean like Alastair Cooke? Nice one! - as I sit here listening to one of early letters about the TV weatherman :)
All best, Gavin
;D ;D more please John !!
Makes a refreshing change to listen instead of reading constantly! ;D Many thanks.
