Hi @michael57 - it is good that you can see all the reviews & hopefully some of our more positive ones will soon outweigh some of t'others. I was trying to be diplomatic 😔sad face.

I see @michael57 - Scope is a great forum & Admin are pretty good about looking after us all. May I ask did you ever look after any Welsh Blacks? Altho my then husband & his parents had a small holding & were poultry farmers, I remember the 4 Welsh Blacks we went to collect; what lovely cattle they were.

welsh blacks are better suited for beef production having better milk composition than most modern dairy cows they just dont produce enough to satisfy the modern farmer monthly milk cheque

@Nightcity thanks for your response.

I’m a music lover, used to be a gig-goer in the past. I got a streamer so I could listen to radio shows from all over. It’s amazing to be able to tune into eg a little station in Alaska, or NPR in Detroit, and so on. Obviously I love stations here too, but the ones I mentioned are still more of a novelty because I always wanted to be able to hear US stations especially, but didn’t have a computer.

Re what you said about nobody wanting to help, but everybody sorry after you’d gone - that is the way of everything, and I know it sucks having experienced it (not in radio). I’ll bet the shows are missed, as it’s so good for many people to hear little, non-mainstream, stations. I never listen to big stations, because I either hate their culture, the adverts, the celebrity-worship, and so on.

Have you ever thought of going for some kind of funding? My friend had a couple of albums funded, and I know somebody who used to run a community station who got funding. I just mean there’s funding out there, but it would probably be a lot of stress for one person to do the funding applications and run the station.

I’m often (gently) mocked because when people ask me about tv, I say I don’t have it, and I ask them about radio. You should see the responses from younger people - their faces literally twist with confusion. I know music-lovers still love radio, so I’m only talking about my nieces and nephews, and friends’ kids who listen to music through tiktok (etc)

@Nightcity - I’ve got a couple of arts-type things that launched through Kickstarter. They gave items as reward, though I have also seen launches where they don’t have product as such, but might be happy to list somebody as a supporter if the person wanted, or they promise something like the glow of spreading community cheer as the reward. You might also be able to access funding that’s there to help people with disabilities (I never mention disability in my day-to-day, and neither does anybody I know), so I’m not sure if applying for dedicated funding would bother you if you then had to make some sort of bow as a disabled person in return for such money. I’m not knocking any element of anything there, as it’s up to individuals how they express their own identity, and all power to anybody who wants to access disability funding.

Mostly forgotten tracks balanced by a few hits sounds like a good approach. It would be way more interesting for you too.

Something I’m terrible at - playlists. I never seem to make one I’m happy with. No matter what I start with, I end up dissatisfied a couple of tracks in, so I end up just throwing in a variety and pressing shuffle. Do you find arranging the track list for a show easy, or do you have to put a lot of thought?
