Once it’s not listed available on the website the download doesn’t work. That’s because it’s downloaded not as a mp3 file but a special format. <br /><br />Still many of radio 4 programmers have long availability.

It's a more recent series.<br /><br />I found a link to the 100 objects series. <br />https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b00nrtd2/episodes/downloads<br /><br />Maybe Archie can help you download both Neil MacGregor series to your ipad.

The cultural pitch is set that much higher than television, for example. As I drive to my knitting group there has been a series of programmes, one about the classified ads on the pages of regional newspapers of the past and another about the symbolic items associated with British Prime Ministers. Short but fascinating programmes.<br /><br />Re running out of yarn. I note that on Ravelry a number of people have a couple of skeins of Penny Loafers in the right weight, although no one is offering it for trade or sale. Nevertheless it might be worth dropping some of them a message asking, because, incredibly, this worked for someone from my knitting group who needed one ball of a discontinued colour to complete a child's cardigan. She had never even heard of Ravelry before I explained how the search facility worked and what it made possible.shandyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17372329387935318023noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8466385.post-79492755400189667122018-08-19T21:07:44.314+01:002018-08-19T21:07:44.314+01:00"Living with the Gods" sounds right up m..."Living with the Gods" sounds right up my alley - thanks for mentioning it Jean, I will search it out this winter when gardening and hiking are over and I typically catch up on podcasts.Bethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16568215693665518362noreply@blogger.com
