I wonder if the singer can hit high C's though.I will not be pushed, filed, stamped, indexed, briefed, debriefed or numbered. My life is my own.

The immediate correction of the venue made the failure to correct the composer seem even more egregious. Are these all really just slips of the tongue? If so, I would have to doubt her abilities as a broadcaster. Or did she in fact sit through the whole of Boris Godunov labouring under the impression that it was by Tchaikovsky? That would be even more worrying.

I’m hoping that calm will be restored with the return of Petroc Trelawny next week.

I was delighted to discover this morning that my Classic iPod works fine in our new car (replacement newer model after the previous one got written off in a crash on New Year's Day), so we now have the option of our own choice of music on its first long outing soon (yes, we really do use the car that little that it hadn't been worth investigating till now!) instead of Breakfast and Sunday. Kia must have updated their software.

Although I do quite enjoy Dr Walker’s show on a Sunday morning.
My current motor is due for replacement in the autumn, my preferred replacement offers a CD player as an option at £100. And, as it goes, a spare wheel for £150. I’m aiming to order both !!I will not be pushed, filed, stamped, indexed, briefed, debriefed or numbered. My life is my own.
