WA Jul 2020 10:35pm, 23 Jul 2020 7,253 posts	Quote Pin WA [I used the word staycation yesterday when commenting on a friend's fb post. She should be in Italy. Instead she is at home digging the garden and posted a pic of herself covered in mud. We are going on holiday in the UK. That's a holiday, as we are not staying at home]

[I'm too decrepit even for Radio 2 to hit the spot ] I find it one of the most incisive and uncompromising programmes on BBC radio. Not 'agreeing' with every opinion, view or research piece is surely an indicator the the current format is successful.]
