    To Boldly Go.....

    Rob's guest on Essential Classics this week was the astronaut Helen Sharman. I had to laugh when she said that 'space tourism' was just around the corner when Health and Safety issues were ironed out. Health and Safety??? With 400 tons of rocket fuel blasting you into and environment with no oxygen from which you return via parachute into an ocean?

    And some on here would still be worrying about the split infinitive!!

      Roy Promley, Sue Lawley and Kirsty Young all did/do this kind of thing much better - where it belongs - on RADIO 4.

        I bet he didn't crap between movements!

        "...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..."

            All Life, the Universe and Everything crossed with Red Dwarf. Well I never did.
