"With a bit of a mind flip, you're there in the time slip" - The Rocky Horror Picture Show
I have finally wrenched myself out of the incorrect listening frequency for my demographic and placed myself firmly in another one, where yet again I don't belong. Actually I say that, for the first time in my radio listening life I am now a two station gal. Six Music and Radio Four share my bestowed grace of tuning in. Though Radio Four is my true love. It does't seem to be able to help but appeal to my inner vintage geeky goddess (god I sound cool on paper....when I am writing.... never mind). The simple fact that they stop broadcasting at 1am, this being preceded by the shipping bulletin and proceeded by the national anthem brings me out in goosebumps of joy. It is amazing, it is like being instantly transported back to the 1950's. Bliss.
Who could not love listening to the home of the Infinite Monkey Cage? Where else do you get an eclectic mix of, an expose on the myth of genie's, half hour of a math's bloke and stats making sense, James Naughtie actually calling the ex-Culture Secretary Jeremy Hunt what we all call him, but live on national radio, and of course where else could you possible get the deep unfathomable, but strangely gripping Archers? Tum ti tum ti tum ti tum.
Hmm I actually think that might be more nonsensical than last night. It's getting towards the end of the week though and I am seriously sleep deprived. Expect normal service to resume........who am I kidding.
