Dear All - Please try Radio FIP (French state run) it has the most amazing selection of music. You can either listen over the internet or download a file which then plays it through iTunes.

I love most types of music, and they are all played there, best of all, very little 'chat' and no adverts.

In light of Honaloochie's comments re: Jono Coleman I did a quick search before starting a thread and was thrilled to be reminded that the lovely Bellenden Belle shares the hate


"I am only relieved that Jono Coleman has left the London breakfast show. He was like an overgrown schoolboy - I found myself SCREAMING at the radio...

"

Radio 2 early in the am with Sarah Kennedy.


Radio 4 most of the rest of the day as it is like a talking clock, I know what time of the day it is by whats on.


Radio 3 sometimes for a change.


Radio 7 which is infuriatingly on digital, so you of course need to buy a digital radio to receive it, or sky tv chanels.


Some times catch Vanessa when I'm driving, who is best on radio, I can't stand watching her on tv. She is a cut above the rest of the flotsam on that station.

I am not ashamed ( *Bob* you can hide behind me now) "I LOVE THE VANESSA SHOW" on BBC London 94.9 9-12 am Monday-Saturday It's radio at it's best, yes it is .....mmmm all warm and cudly, funny , erudite, la la la....kiss kiss



"Hello lovely listeners" Oh how the hairs on my arms stand up.....oh mmmm.




"Ahem................now where were we" ?




W**F

I love radio 4. (Currently mark twain's autobiography, the news quiz, food programme, excess baggage, archers, previously sorry I haven't a clue with humphrey littleton)


Sometimes Classic (without the annoying ads would be even better)


Old comedies on radio 7 (dad's army, steptoe)


Absolute 80s (without the really irritating bits between the cheesy music, can of quattro anyone? Jeez)

I'm lazy with my choices, even hitting favourites on DAB has become a chore. Mainly 5 live, really like The Monday NIght Club but think 'Motty' should stick to what he knows (knew). Annoyingly Colin Murray (Kopite) has grown on me but I've never quite got Fighting Talk, just makes me cringe. Richard Bacon (no known footy affiliation) has the greatest booker in tv and radio, everyday he has great, interesting guests.


Radio 4 is catered for by Review of the Week but is too unashamedly middle class. Some of the comedy is great, some awful.


I often spin over to World Service, randomly some great features and less randomly the greatest phone in footy show anywhere in the UK.


That's about it, dislike commercial, not snobbery just hate the ads. Love music but never really tune in to listen to it.

    • How on earth can someone like this be allowed to continue as a solicitor? Can't be just be struck off, or the equivalent?
    • There are no road works in front of Cod fellas and yesterday when I requested a stop there the driver went straight past and never stopped untill Avondale Riss. As cars have to stop because of the lights why can busses not do this? 1 minute Bloodly mindedness.
    • These are the smokeless fuels you can burn on a open fireplace in Southwark: https://smokecontrol.defra.gov.uk/fuels-php/england/ https://www.southwark.gov.uk/planning-environment-and-building-control/environment/air-quality/reduce-air-pollution/reduce-smoke
    • Thanks all, our hope was (despite the diminishing estate) he would get on with it.  Progress is glacial, it's been two years since probate was granted, that's two cold and damp winters with no heating, and not surprisingly a pipe burst. He's blames the issues on the estate agent, who separately had a dispute with him, he had a wobbly when one of the beneficiaries spoke to the estate agent.  Separately he said it was the family's fault for letting the property get into a poor condition.  It was dated, but certainly not in poor condition. There are two five star reviews on Google, and five one star: ** WARNING** This solicitor firm has to be one of the worst I have encountered. The solicitor is prehistoric in his practices and will carry out work at his own snails pace, the fax machine he uses gets turned off at 2 pm and its near impossible to get him on the phone. STAY AWAY, YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED, check the solicitors ombudsman, this firm has previous bad practice recorded.   Disgusting under no circumstances use this solicitor.For over 10 years he has not carried out the terms of a Will he has not re-invested money but has retained it.  He writes letters which are pure "Flannel" excuses for doing nothing.  You have been warned   shocking experience, delayed the whole process, told other side solicitors to not contact him as he feels pressured etc. never use.   Not fit for 21st century. No website, no email address, no electronic transfer. Very slow, very little communication.   Was not a pleasant experience dealing with this firm
