....you can't order your usual Roberts Radio from John Lewis. ( and when you manage to buy one from elsewhere, they've doubled in price  ) please continue with any pretty passes that have come your way...... |

The name is familiar but I cannot remember what was special about them. I was probably going to school in short trousers last time I heard of one.

This Roberts is £10, are you paying over £100 for the design or sound quality?  |

Roberts make the best radios. A home without a Roberts is like a home without a hearth.

Have you been throwing it about again? Just turn it off when You & Yours comes on, it's cheaper in the long run.

 no it's because Mr Bets can't hear the kitchen radio. as he gets older he likes to talk, rile and rant at R4. aside from my concern that this might be the early onset of dementia, it's quite entertaining, especially when he thinks no one's listening.
