LBC radio for me. Best listen for me recently is James O’Brien podcast full disclosure interview with Noel Fitzpatrick.

Thanks for letting me know, I think I'll have to do some exploring :)

The ear-piercing screech and growl from my spindle-moulder as it mills into some seasoned oak.

The incessant wailing of a stupid sheep with its head stuck in some fencing.

The metallic rattling of a deluded woodpecker hammering on our electricity transformer.

The hysterical shrieking of a demented chicken when a cat strolls past her coop.

And of course, there's the angry farmer trying to round up sheep with a useless dog.

“Working” is a bit different now but I have the radio on while cooking and doing bits about the place - well it’s not a radio as such, it’s a speaker playing stuff from my phone on Amazon. I’ve not paid to upgrade but can still do enough to keep me happy.

The compilations it makes up are interesting, earlier it played brothers in arms by Joan Baez (better than the original dire straits version) Fingals cave by Mendelssohn, and Rhiannon (my daughter’s name) by Fleetwood Mac.
