You'd like radio 4

Is singing along to Radio 4 encouraged?

At all?

Listening to Radio 4 when the radio cuts out in search of a stronger signal, I try to keep the interview going. It's easy with politicians.

Interviewer: "When do you expect the International Monetary Fund's findings on the UK's economic projections for the next decade to be announced?"

radio cuts out

Politician: "Well I expect the International Monetary Fund's findings on the UK's economic projections for the next decade to be announced..."

and we're back

But not in the comfort of a radio studio. This is raw, in the wild, trying to keep time with the music.

Shower, coffee, toasted bagels, brush teeth, finish books off, go to accountants, bank, send cheques out, drop off at Heathrow, come back play on PS3 Ghost Sniper, dinner, bed.

'My name is Bond... James Bond'. Well actually my name is Santay Cohen Smith IV and i'm 54 and live with my mum. Every day she makes me boiled eggs and soldiers for breakfast. Wednesday is my bath night and sometimes me and mum go to the bingo. We watch Eastenders and Corrie, but come 10pm when mummy is tucked in to bed, I become Dongonwon, chief of the th'robber tribe and we go out hunting and pillaging stuff. Occasionally I meet my mates and we chat about about things we have in common like 'what's the best sword to kill the evil H'aymarks' and stuff like that...'

It's a bit like forums, only bloodier and with added sound effects. (Well except when CB turns up in which case there is extra farting, grunting and hip rotating)

Gaming communities - they're like social clubs for balding men with the greasy vestiges of long hair, a predilection for camo trousers with lots of pockets for the ridiculous gadgets they buy, but don't know how to use.
They also have a liking for graphic novels (they weren't that literate at school), and talk about the characters as if they're real, describing what they'd do to them (unlikely as they only lost their virginity at 29 by accident).

I know too much about this.
