  • Great way to relax for half an hour

    I love the stories - some thought provoking and some bringing back personal memories. I love the format - almost like having a couple of mates around for a coffee and a chat.

    I’m sure that you’ll enjoy them too.

  • Sort of Desert Island Discs for birds, with plenty of bird facts and stories *and* it's not just men! (which it so often is in bird world). Funny, interesting, and can't wait for series 2.
