Did I say anything worth listening to? Or just the usual drivel?

Oops! Sound was turned down. I'm sure it wasn't drivel.

It seems that you can download an app which allows you to download stuff to your hard drive, but it then mysteriously self destructs after 30 days unless you've managed to then copy it to Betamax tape.

Interesting thing about news - how the message can get a slant through editing. I listened to what the other two said, and they were not really downbeat themselves, but after editing only the negative bits were shown. Interesting too, that I asked 12 people before finding two that would do an interview. The rest... "Too shy". Maybe they had more sense.

It's what passes for "balance" at the BBC these days.
If they interview someone who is in favour of motherhood and apple pie they then have to find others who will warn about the adverse effects of apples on tooth-enamel, the propensity of pastry to cause obesity and how praising motherhood is offensive to men (should be "parenthood"), the infertile and the intentionally childless.
