    Just wondered if any of you have followed Ken Bruce over to “the dark side”? I was already there! I think he might have followed me!

    I guess that makes the two of us then!

    Commercial radio, such as Greatest Hits Radio, great music from 70s,80s and 90s. It’s the constant advert breaks that spoil it, although “Popmaster” seems to have survived the switch from BBC Radio2!

    I listen via my living room sound system and so unfortunately can’t take advantage of the GHR “Premium” option; that is advert free listening for a few pounds per month. I suppose that would require a smartspeaker or some other such device.

    The days would be very long indeed, if I had to live without radio.

    That is a sentiment I can agree with. Without the radio and a furry body, lilfe would be miserable.

    So let me ask another question along these lines. Do you watch much TV? For myself I watch documentaries and the like on Youtube,, whilst for TV proper I just watch the news because I find the content of most channels irritating, pretentious , and demeaning to our intelligence . My son has given up his TV licence and I am thinking of doing the same.

    I watch very little telly, pretty much news stations and “Sportscene”, which is the Scottish equivalent of MOTD.

    My weekends are “Sportsound”, which is the Scottish football coverage on BBC Radio Scotland. Currently enjoying Aberdeen v Rangers. I would happily watch the EFL Championship downwards, I am not a fan of the money soaked, “sanitised” elite football leagues. They sicken me in fact.

    I threaten to cancel my TV licence all the time! Maybe when the great Mr Attenborough is no longer with us? I would certainly miss his output.

    There is a thought. There is much on TV that would persuade me to cancel though. Still hard to justify

    I am going to try and get non medical discussions, Mike. I am hoping others will join in. It can’t just be you and I!

    “Get non medical discussions going” (not able to edit my posts, very annoying).
