Me too. It is on at just the right time. 6:30.
Now a days I listen to it on my laptop.
I started after Willie Rushton died and I am in at 2002 series 40.
I keep promising myself that I will make a compilation of one song to 
the tune of another. My favourite part.
Let's see how Jim and John cope with that, over a newsgroup. If they can 
do it. They will get points. And we all know what points mean, don't we?
Yes points are the electrical contacts in a less than modern automobile. 
Which had to be adjusted using a torch, a 12 volt light bulb connected 
by two crocodile clips and the feeler gauges (a fag packet would do at a 
pinch).

Ah! the days before moving parts were replaced by electronics.
Brings a lump to my throat.
Which reminds me. Has anyone seen Samantha?

[I had better take a break from listening. Any more and I will be 
speaking in rhyming couplets.]

Excellent. :)

I've been meaning to do a compilation of Mornington Crescent moves, 
partly as an effort to determine the best possible move from any point to 
any point. :)

Yes it will be if I ever get round to it. Don't hold your breath.

There is a difference, you know, between interest and obsessive compulsive?

That's a good question. Why haven't I started yet?

Ah, that might be why I haven't started yet. :)

That can be true, certainly.
