Wavelength – 2006 August 13th You’re a winner or you’re a sinner
“You’re a winner or you’re a sinner”. Evangelist lay preacher recorded at Piccadilly Circus + “Flak” by David Jackman. This lay preacher was a fixture at Oxford Circus for many years, relentlessly preaching to the crowds through a portable megaphone. His mantra was “You’re a winner or you’re a sinner†along with other rhymes. This recording on a Walkman cassette recorder was made at his later site on Piccadilly Circus. I haven’t seen him at either location for at least one year.
“Flak†ten inch vinyl record by David Jackman

Remembering Ian Hibell, the world’s greatest long-distance cyclist and adventurer, who was run down and killed on a road in Greece last month, aged 74. He’d been on a ‘training ride’ which began in Hull (England) in preparation for his next trip to Nepal and Tibet. Nic Henderson talks about his friend and hero. From the Tour of Britain we hear the latest news from the Rapha-Condor-Recycling team and a protestor from Climate Camp who has something to say about energy company E-on’s sponsorship of this year’s Tour.

Hooting Yard : Lugubrious Dismay
Without wishing to generate further controversy over what is, in any case, a pointless and trivial matter, I should add that I have recently completed a lengthy work, at fifteen volumes just one book short of Sabine Baring-Gould’s Lives Of The Saints. It is a comprehensive study, with lots of illustrations and diagrams, of all Dobson’s known and suspected hats. I conclude that not a single one of them was lined with lead.
