Nothing of the sort. It merely introduces one to a freemasonry of narcissistic windbags, who were at university with each other, pontificating about what they consider to be important, or reading out what their fellow Oxbridge alumnae have written in the newspaper that morning, all of it larded with threat that more of the same asinine dribble is to follow in the next hour. It is at this moment that the wise man turns to Radio 3, whose contributors have lived a bit and created something that will last, unlike the mutually back-scratching banter as perpetrated by Mr Humphreys and Naughtie."maxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17528649995290747213noreply@blogger.com
