    You really shouldn't bother about me .....but what I understand you to be asking is - is the music I listen to only Breakfast? No it's not, thanks to Breakfast bringing me to Radio 3 - possibly the only person ever! - and then to these Boards my listening has widened a great deal - still nowhere near you or Roehre or Suffolkcoastal or indeed the average member here but I'm not 64 yet!

      The only possible reason I can find to explain the intransigence and blind (deaf?) loyalty of Messrs. Gould & Mercia is that one is Petroc Trelawny and the other is Sara Mohr-Pietsch.

              The problem is that R3 has become increasingly infantilised, so that for much of the day it is a completely different radio station from the one we all used to love.
              Well said Lass.

              Bolero was on drive time this evening btw (the one for violin and piano by York Bowen no less).
              The show did kick off with a flippin slavonic dance though.

                I think I am going to hold that thought, though I am not sure why !
                Anyway, AG, "Breakfast" and in particular RC's knowledge and love of music, was an important part of my musical journey, so I am with you there.
                I do however, find the current programmes generally very unappealing, and I suspect that they won't achieve their aims.

                  I thought we were all rather more open minded these days, Calipso?

                      Does that justify Ronnie Ronalde? And his whistling along in a Monastry Garden and an unspecified garden bird?

                        Sounds to me as if nothing could justify that, although I've no idea what you're on about!

                                Is that where the expression 'dog in the manger' comes from?
