Well on Sundays at 12pm on BBC Radio 4 Extra to be precise – the traditional time for comedies on the old Light Programme, while you’re cooking the Sunday roast.

You can listen to BBC Radio 4 Extra on the TuneIn radio app.
As a postscript to my last entry I thought I’d show you the back of my Richard Barthelmess postcard:
Batley isn’t too far from me so it was a nice coincidence and I just happen to love Southport as well – ‘Harrogate on Sea’!
I’m just waiting in the queue for a cup of tea at the annual Laurel & Hardy Night and I thought I’d share with you this lovely picture which awaits you should you get caught short during the interval:
Other ladies toilets please take note.

Three things about myself:
1. I’m a massive transport geek – trains (steam, diesel, electric), buses, trams, push bikes, cars, monster trucks, tractors, any wheeled transport, love em all!
2. The BBC drama Happy Valley was filmed round by me and is set in the same area – Halifax and Sowerby Bridge in Yorkshire. Was a trippy experience watching Sarah Lancashire getting her head stoved in literally streets from my house! I wanted to run out and save her!
3. I tend to find older, traditional, seaside-style comedians funnier than modern ones.
