What? Even in the morning making a bit of toast?

Only time I hear the radio is if the wife puts some banal shit on whilst we're out.

Back in the day Peter Jones doing the footy on R2 (which was the sport channel back in the 70s); class, as was Jimmy Armfield later on R5.

Tommy Vance - "TV on the radio". Mind you, looking him up on wiki his real name was apparently Richard Anthony Crispian Francis Prew Hope-Weston 🤨

"RACFPHW on the radio" isn't quite as catchy...

Used to get call outs from kids who'd written in that made me laugh in the late 70s. Tried to sound "metal" but there was usually a give-away...

e.g. "To Sex-Wolf, from Rock-God. Good luck with your O-Levels".

Rarely listen to radio since Spotify came along and only ever in the car if Jonny Vaughan or 606 is on 

Also enjoy Pick Of The Pops if it's 80s or 90s, I like the sound of Paul Gambaccini's voice, he could follow me round narrating my day if he wants

Be better at someone else's funeral, you won't hear him at your own.

Radio is for cars. 

And the kitchen. Unless you are one of those oiks who has a TV in the kitchen.

Nothing better than doing a bit of cooking and listening to the radio - I actually perefer lisetning to matches than watching them if its not Bolton.

Not having  a funeral, I've told the missus to do one of those cheapo incinerations like David Bowie and chuck me into the wheelie bin

If you get chance go to one of his shows , top night out

Even laughed when I said to him everyone’s dead Dave 

I've seen him twice and both times he looked like he'd had more pills than the crowd - which I count as a plus! 😁
