i was mopey yesterday with the remnants of a flu-like bug i was still fighting… and i decided i had to do better than that today… but my heffalumps-neighbours upstairs were game on setting me up in a moody morning with me trying desperately to steal more sleep but obviously loosing the battle… crap. i resorted to blasting my world-receiver (which my brother kindly retrieved from my bedroom at home) and then after a while got bored with the selection of classical pieces on the classical radio channel and started randomly pressing some buttons i’ve made to store the frequencies of some channels that happen not to have too unpleasant things on air…
frequency-modulated (FM) channel 88.5 suddenly aired the voice of a very british accent… and i thought, how weird… i turned up the volume and much to my amusement… it was BBC world on culture and movies… i got to hear a review of Chronicles of Narnia, Everything Is Illuminated and Ang Lee’s new movie Brokeback Mountain, which sounds like a good one to catch… how delightful… and i thought my attempts in trying to find the BBC channels were futile… i really was quite upset not finding any for weeks… now i know at least one channel in the mornings might be dedicated to BBC world news!
yippeee…
