Listeners Sounds

Swanage Lifeboat was featured on Radio 4's 'Listeners Sounds' slot last night. This is a slot where listeners send in recordings of their cherished sounds for the nation to hear.

You can hear what happens when the lifeboat launches, and also hear some familiar voices (well, familiar to us at least, and presumably their mums as well) as well as some less familiar sounds - who realised that when the MRCC speaks to a lifeboat they follow it with Big Ben's chimes?

Click the link and tune in from 58:00 minutes if you want to hear the launch, or tune in between 0:00 and 58:00 if you want to hear the rest of yesterday's news.  http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b03xgl4d

We're having a straw poll of Cherished Sounds in the CG team and will pop the results on here from time to time. Ian and Brian to go first.
CG Blog: Ian, What's your cherished sound?
Ian: The sound of a packet of biscuits being opened. Mmmmm don't mind if I do.

CG Blog: Brian, What's your cherished sound?
Brian: The sound of a packet of Jaffa Cakes being opened. Mmmm, don't mind if I do.



Hey!  These aren't Jaffas....!
