Sports: Re: [DucatiST] Pialla: British Army Mug

thanks for the info on torrent downloads, I'm a searching now. If I don't find it
I wonder can I purchase a copy and maybe get Nick to smuggle it in for me.
We'll see what I find.

Bah, replying to my own post!
I've since discovered that this was originally broadcast on BBC Radio
4 in 1986. I thought it had been specially recorded for Radio 7.
This means that although it may well get repeated, I wouldn't hold your
breath, unless you can stop for a year or more. It was previously
broadcast on Radio 7 in 2009. If you dabble in torrent downloads,
it's available.
