Off Topic The Listening Project

The listening project is very good, I'd recommend it to all. R4 has trailed this in Branny quite heavily, but I missed the broadcast unfortunately.

Fi Glover is a great interviewer; she's not at all condescending (as BBC folks sometimes are, when talking to us plebs). She obv. researches well and is kind of 'with' the person she's talking to

For example, Chazz (it's better for the listening* - it is vox pop), today she talked to two trawlerman (about pissing in their gloves to warm their hands up), Alec Gill, and others, including the black guy who is the Hull CoC representative.

* The clue is in the programme title...

That made be laugh Stan, I was trying to visualise the presenters face when he said that.

Are you saying Alec Gill and that black guy were trawlermen and pissed in their gloves? Need to be careful who you're shaking hands with these days.
