Offshore pirate radio.

Does anyone remember laser 558 ? The music is never more than a minute away ! From. The mid eighties ?

yes indeed!! laser 558 circa 1984 ? ...
I may not recall correctly, but weren't the DJs American?
Bloody good music. I used to listen to it on my ' Spinneytronic mono radio/cassette player '
Great days

Horace Batchelor wasn't a bookie. He was a guy who claimed to have cracked a way of doing the pools and invited people to send in their coupons and he'd pick their winners - "only" taking a share of the winnings.

Ah...the joys of pirate radio. I vividly remember listening under the bedclothes, with the tranny radio under the pillow, and inevitably falling asleep with it still on. At 11, I thought that was the most fun one could have in bed.

Nowadays you can't say that you used to go to bed with a tranny as they'll misunderstand you.
