Who Listens To Techno

is the name of a programme I made with Llinos Jones for Radio 4 a while back.

Llinos made the packages and I wrote and said the bits in between.

There's currently a copy available here which I'm sure is very illegal.

I'm afraid you have to copy and paste it as I can't make the html link work properly. Feel free to tell me how if you know so.

If you listen, please let me know. I really enjoy making programmes with and or about music for Radio 4, but it's odd to make musical documentaries on a speech station huh?
Or not?

Photographing something that isn't there

Lovely and sad:

That was weird

I went to beautiful Blackheath today to have my picture taken to publicise The Rough Guides Series 2. It was for OK magazine; not, it has to be said, my organ of choice , but my sister was very excited. My co-host on the series Julia Bradbury managed to perform for the camera with enthusiasm and I have a nasty feeling I willjust look desperately uncomfortable. The photographer Cameron was very understanding and forgiving though.


But I still can't work it out, and I wish someone would let me know, am I F, E, or D list now?

Taken on the way to swim with a manta ray! Flores Island, Komodo National Park. Indonesia.

Shot with the Leica, and weirdly exposed due its being dropped from a scooter. But film shots now look like history don't they? Even if only taken a couple of months ago.

The most relaxing spot available at the foot of the active volcano.

The terrace of the extremely casual hotel/house we stayed at on Stromboli.
