coolest thing ever

yyyyyyy765052.jpg

My Roberts Gemini-10 digital radio arrived in the mail today. It is the most wonderful little box of high-quality retro joy. I love it.

That's real leather it's covered with, and the digital sound quality is ouststanding. Completely static-free.

One of the advantages of living in the UK is the BBC. They really have utterly fabulous radio, especially if you like classical music.

I have an analogue Roberts radio and it's lovely. It brings Radio 4 to me in Amsterdam. I don't know how I survived without knowing that former shot put champion and title holder of World's Strongest Man Geoff Capes is also a renowned breeder of budgerigars.

Indispensable.
