- mypastself 5y agoThank you, that is amazing. I just got to: “Hello. Throughout history, people have taken drugs”

- mypastself 5y agoI’m completely unfamiliar with the other programmes, but that’s still pretty funny.
- Veen 5y agoThat's funny, although it's missing the one of the best bits about Radio 4: the Shipping Forecast. For some reason, I find the late (0040) and early morning (0520) shipping forcasts immensely familiar and comforting. It's been a part of my life since I was a small child getting up very early for school when I had no idea what Dogger, Forties, Cromarty and Rockall meant. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CxHa5KaMBcM https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CxHa5KaMBcM
