The wonders of modern travel

One of the countless wonders of modern life and therefore also of modern travel is the capacity to listen to your local radio station live apparently from almost anywhere in the world.

Have a look at the 'app' displayed on my smart phone just now.

Where I am it is just after 4pm on Sunday and I am in Beverly Hills, Los Angeles USA listening to a live program from a local radio station in Australia where it is just after 9am on Monday.

Amongst the fun of experiencing the strange and different things about life overseas it is reassuring as well to have a moment to hear something, live, from home.
