I'm definitely getting old

Not only have I started listening to the radio in my car instead of cds, not only do I listen to Radio 4 and Radio Wales, but as I drive through the Butetown tunnel I wonder to myself why the Radio 4 signal works all the way through but the Radio Wales signal doesn't, surely they are off the same transmitter ( Read more... )

Re the radio stuff it'll be down to the wavelength that the station is transmitting on I reckon mate. Really big wavelengths just don't fit into tunnels, smaller ones can make it through - see? :-)

I've been listening to radio 2 for years. I think maybe I was born forty...

I am truly in awe of your radio knowledge. Thank you for resolving what was really starting to bug me!!

I will never forget us discussing something about age and you so matter-of-factly said 'oh well, you are never going to grow up' to me. I am definitely starting to see signs now, which is a bit worrying. Before we know it I am going to be eating lots of fibre and eyeing up the Readers Digest as a good read.

If I do, you have my total permission to shoot me.

Aw - that comment was only meant in a cheeky/silly way - it wasn't a serious one! I really can't see either of us ever stopping being silly when the mood takes us - the the fun would really go out of life then wouldn't it! I don't think the cold-blooded shooting of dork_mistress will end up being necessary...

Glad thinking about wavelengths made you happy :-D

Radio 4 Rocks! They had New Order's drummer talking about his tank colection on Saturday morning.

And anyhow, what's wrong with sheds?
