After 9 months away from the microphone, I'm back into it.
I'll carry on with the same format - it's one I've got used to, and there have been no complaints from listeners about it. In fact, quite the opposite. Listeners seem to appreciate the varied format.
It has taken me quite a bit of time to settle in to my new abode and establish a radio station studio within it. Fortunately, I had some very good help.
My personal studio is 100 km away from the radio station's studio, so no longer can local listeners just drop in on me. Listeners from far and wide who've been catching the programme in the past over the internet have not had this option anyway, but it's still good to know you are there. Drop me a line anyway: trevorofhampden at gmail.com. Sorry, but internet listeners are not eligible for QSL cards.
Here is the intended programme to early May.
The book reading from 'The Promise of the Wolves' concludes and its place is taken by Bruce Mason's famous NZ work, 'The End of the Golden Weather'. This is in 6 parts.
I am getting to the end of my supply of episodes of "I'm Sorry, I'll Read That Again", so I'm looking for a series to slot in at 6 pm.
(The formatting fault in the left hand margin {if it shows up} is beyond my ken.- sorry.)
