ql Thank you for sharing the beautiful story I agree - much of to-day's newspapers is not worth reading A life spent making mistakes is not only more honorable, but more useful than a life spent doing nothing. George Bernard Shaw Jenny

Remember that Simon and Garfunkel line: "I get all the news I need on the weather report"? Sometimes I feel like that. And sometimes, in the car, I'll flip off the news radio channel (needed for traffic updates) and put on a "Just William" audio book (adventures of a scampish eleven year old boy and his "gang" set in a bucolic post-war Britain) And if I hit a traffic jam that I might have avoided if I'd kept the radio tuned, who cares? I can sit and listen to another adventure without having the bother of driving at the same time! Thanks for the lovely story. Always loved those books.

Nice story. NPR gives me the news without depressing me.

We had the stroy books and the poems (and a yellow 45 vinyl disc with English comedy greats playing the roles!) Worst of all, years later, when we looked at those books that we had all merrily coloured in (as children do), we discovered that they were first editions!!! Damn!!!
