My first "podcast"..... eventually, hopefully, kind of

ABC radio in Australia did an interview with me a few years ago. (You will need to have Real Player installed to listen to it.)

One of my friends in Sydney had "dobbed me in" to them as an expat who they could talk to on air about what it was like living away from home.

It was fun to do and the dj, Angela Catterns, was really friendly. (And living in London, you don't meet many genuinely friendly people, which is sad.)

Since the interview, ABC radio have phoned me a few other times just to get my thoughts as an expat on London and Aussie stuff. And they even phoned me on 7/7 to check I was ok - how sweet.

Anyway, I recently found the link to the interview while tidying up my pc and thought it might be interesting to add it to this blog. Unfortunately the interview itself is in real audio format rather than mp3 and I can't convert it directly as the file sits on ABC's server. (See below).

But on the bright side, its their bandwidth and not mine that you use if you listen to it!

I hope it works ok and is more successful than the boardI added to my family history site this weekend - which seems to crash for Aussie users, as I found to my dismay this morning. Oh well.

This weekend has been nothing but a series of technical problems ............ maybe I oughta stick to reading books.
