Columba Nov 2019 6:52pm, 29 Nov 2019 18,797 posts	0 Columba Each group is associated with a specific thread; but not every thread has an associated group. (Am I right?) (Or isn't that what we're talking about anyway?)
Diogenes Dec 2019 9:43am, 5 Dec 2019 43,082 posts	0 Diogenes I've started reading 21st Century Yokel, by Tom Cox. I'd highly recommend it to people who like walking and nature and that sort of thing.
Let it snow Daisy Dec 2019 8:45am, 21 Dec 2019 28,654 posts	0 Let it snow Daisy Just popping in here to ask if anyone has been listening to Dark Matter, by Michelle Paver, read on R4 (on what used to be called Book at Bedtime)? Read brilliantly by Lee Ingleby. I'm not a massive fan of ghost stories, but this one was great.
McGoohan Dec 2019 8:47am, 21 Dec 2019 42,572 posts	0 McGoohan I assume that can be iPlayered or BBC Soundsed or something?
Let it snow Daisy Dec 2019 8:49am, 21 Dec 2019 28,656 posts	0 Let it snow Daisy BBC Sounds has got it McG.
McGoohan Dec 2019 8:51am, 21 Dec 2019 42,573 posts	0 McGoohan Cheers. As I'm having a bit of a conk-out I might give that a listen... they don't call it Book At Bedtime anymore?
Let it snow Daisy Dec 2019 9:08am, 21 Dec 2019 28,657 posts	0 Let it snow Daisy I think it's just 'a serial' now, because they run it at lunchtime (in the old Home Front slot) then repeat it at 10:45pm. Book at Bedtime isn't going to appeal to the yoof, is it and they're desperate to get people under 40 listening to R4. 10:45 is more 'Listen to this before you go out clubbing' time
Little Nemo Dec 2019 9:36am, 21 Dec 2019 9,993 posts	0 Little Nemo I think I've read the book, is it about an Arctic expedition?
