Saturday Live, with the wonderful Fi Glover, is my favourite radio programme, so I was listening to it in bed this morning when Beth's hilarious 'day trip' (it seems her favourite hobby is peering through other people's windows in her neighbourhood!) came on most unexpectedly and delightfully!

The whole programme (a magazine programme that follows very much in the footsteps of the late John Peel's Saturday morning Radio 4 people-and-anecdote-centred prog) is as fascinating as ever, but if you only have time for the Beth bit it's at 25:00 and lasts about seven minutes.

There is also a poem from Totnes's most famous comic poet Matt Harvey (who I last saw thirty yards from my house only yesterday!) inspired by Beth's voyeuristic 'day trip', and called 'Snoop Patrol'. It is printed at the bottom of the page, as well as read by Matt (at 47:34) on the prog.

Does anyone know how to download from the BBC i-Player, because as far as I know the i-Player is not available for our non-UK friends on the forum to listen to?

You know, with Google Street View you can almost look into some peoples' windows. :blink:

I notice recently that they finally have added Germany after a long delay. It turns out the German gov't made Google give people the ability to opt-out of street view, so if you do a "virtual drive" down some streets, you'll see a big blurry block in front of a house every so often.

My place is tucked away so far in the woods they can't even find it. At least that was the excuse I got when I tried to locate it.
Hmm...It wouldn't have anything to do with a 'No Tresspassing' sign and a shotgun, would it?
I'd rather have a bottle in front of me, than a frontal lobotomy.

Well, I totally approve of the German government in this instance!

I wouldn't like people peering into my windows (unless it were Beth, of course!)

... they might see what I really get up to! (yikes)


:horny: :boinky:
