Time To Button It
Don't tell Mrs Zed but I've just bought another radio. This, of course, means taking food out of my children's mouths, but a month or two on tap water and cream crackers will do them no harm. I need that new radio. It's as simple as that.
It's one of those new sets that lets you to listen to FM, DAB or the thousands of Internet stations. There are various models advertised in that shop...you know, the one where you flip through an in-store catalogue, use a miniature pen to fill out a slip and then sit in a row of plastic chairs until a grumpy bloke brings your stuff from a secret storeroom. Then you steal the pen. I went to the Inverness branch but they had sold out. So I've ordered my radio from that online company that's put all the little bookshops out of business. I hope you appreciate the lengths I'm going to here to avoid accusations of product placement!
Anyway I need this new radio because it can work off batteries and has lots of pre-set buttons. That's means I'll be able to take it from place to place and demonstrate our new Zones. They began as proper looped and automated streams two weeks ago and that means you can now switch from one to the other at the push of a button. Fed up with Sportsound? Then try listening to some jazz...or comedy...or history...all available 24 hours a day.
Of course, you don't really need the new radio set to do that. You can find the zones here on this website or on sites like Reciva or Radiopaq. But somehow that's not as much fun.
That's all for now, have to rush...I have cream crackers to buy.

I would think if you are in the radio business, you can justify buying radios as a business expense or maybe on-the-job research or some such thing. Mrs. Zed should see it as you are building job security. On the other hand, it is nice to feed one's children.

No. I'm afraid the taxman would take a dim view of me charging my gadget obsession to the BBC. Oh..and a cream cracker...a very dry, thin baked biscuit that you usually eat with cheese!
