M: Can you do my mid-morning drink early, I want to sit in the bathroom between 11.00 and 11.30 this morning.
H: I can, but why do you want to sit in the bathroom?
M: I want to listen to a radio programme on Radio4, about the Rotary Club.
H: But why can't you listen to it on the radio by your chair?
M: Oh, that's no good, I shan't be able to hear the President of Rotary on a DAB radio - I shall use that good old-fashioned one in the bathroom.
H (baffled): Okay..

That's so funny Jee .... these DAB radios are OK but I have to keep swapping over with a good old fashioned one to listen to the local station. Are you warming the seat up for M too?? ;-)
The things you have to do!! At least you made me smile, and it's proof that not all modern technology is the 'best'.
There's more than a touch of James Thurber in these conversations. Do you know his story of his Aunt who kept plugs/lightbulbs in every socket, otherwise the electricity leaked out?
Oh THANK YOU for brightening my day with this one. Laughing my head off at the comments too......
That's a very funny exchange!
We don't have DAB here and only the old fashioned radio, so I can totally understand the need for it!
