My DAB radio died this morning – well, it was actually the AC adaptor which broke – literally. I unplugged the radio from the wall, only to leave one of the plug tongs stuck inside the socket.
With the circuit not being complete, it would probably have been safe to pull it out there and then, but I was taking no chances. Not wanting to receive a fatal electric shock (especially on a weekend) I had to turn off the power to my whole flat. Luckily the plug socket seems to have avoided any damage, but my radio power supply is well and truly fucked. :o(

This Derby County fan really doesn't like Leeds United. If you ever wanted to know what "bitter" sounds like, here you go... Considering the caller was on the verge of tears at the prospect of Derby giving Leeds a 'Guard of Honour', I can't imagine he would have taken this very well... ...

I am far from a fan of the radio station talkSPORT, but was pleased by a video I discovered on social media today. Guest Simon Jordan was in the studio and tore into presenter Jim White and his Sky Sports colleagues, over their reporting of a violent robbery involving a Premier League football player. It is about...

What a nice and thoughtful idea by Classic FM.
Thankfully, Roman does not appear to be troubled by tonight's fireworks, so will not be turning in on the old wireless.
Claire has therefore put the Liverpool game on, which will probably cause her more stress than any nearby bangs and flashes will on our little bunny.... - It’s kicking off again
You can tell the football season returned this weekend. I turned on BBC Radio FiveLive to hear the 606 football phone in. A Bristol City fan was on, with a West Country accent so broad, it would make Justin Lee Collins sound like Prince William. The caller was bemoaning his teams 3-0 defeat to Millwall, putting...

This weekend, Danny Baker used part of his Saturday morning radio show to discuss the worst description that can be given to a football club facing difficult times.
Match of the Day recently used the phrase “Hapless Hull” to report on the Humerside Club's 3-0 defeat to West Ham, while Sky Sports have officially given the...
About Me
So you stumbled across my blog. No doubt after searching for something bizarre on Google. Before you hit that 'Back Button', why not stay and have a read for a few minutes?
If you are after a website which gives advice on how to hack an iPhone X, download the latest Steven Seagal movie, or view nudy ladies, you've come to the wrong place and may now press 'Back'.
However, if you would like a lifestyle blog, written by a 30-something chap, living in Bath (England), feast your eyes on this.
You won't discover how to copy PlayStation 4 games. What you will find is a blog, covering life in the West Country, the highs and lows of supporting two unsuccessful football teams, while sharing a house with a wife and rabbit.
All written by a man, somewhere on the sanity-scale between normal and eccentric.
