What was all your talk of pickets yesterday, btw?
And yes - I have come down to Breakfast again! (Last time for a while - holidays from tonight!)

I was going to ask for several other fences to be taken into consideration (as a barrister friend of mine jested on one occasion, when acting for a nefarious showjumper...).
I'll get his gown."...the isle is full of noises,
Sounds and sweet airs, that give delight and hurt not.
Sometimes a thousand twangling instruments
Will hum about mine ears, and sometime voices..."

The uncharitable thought struck me, as to who is sleeping with whom to get this lot on national radio...
No - I take it back; it's good, energetic, ... local singing!

I guess singing outdoor, recorded live does not produce the best sound. Better in the pub - there are a number of informal groups down here - generally the bigger the group the less harmony and tendency to oversing. 5 or 6 doing it right sound better than a dozen shouting! There are also some newer songs which really do Cornwall justice.

Cheers for the 'shout' about 4.0 sound at the proms just now Petroc. All very interesting. But tbh I'd rather the Beeb went back to streaming its replay content in a format my expensive Musical Fidelity player can understand, so it isn't obsolete. Especially as BBC Radio is no longer "supported" by Virgin Media. No longer support this
