I can't get away with working in a occupied house with the radio BLASTING away. Would feel for the customer.

As for when the house in unoccupied, I'll make do with whatever anyone else has got, can't imagine spending £80 on a radio.

Gonna make myself sound really sad, but I have a small transistor radio about the size of a *** packet tied to the tool box. So I always have it with me. I like radio 4 if i'm on my own. Very interesting sometimes.

I can't listen to radio 4 when working, it's too interesting and slows me down. If I have the radio on, not that often nowadays, it's generally radio 2. Can't be radio 1 as I can't afford to keep replacing radios when i pulverise them with a lump hammer.

Afternoon play? Archers? Some of the comedy stuff they do on radio 4 is great!

Glad it's not just me. I hate it when you can't catch the end of a really good play, some of the detective ones are brilliant...and yes the comedy is great too.

As for Radio 1, it makes my ears bleed within ten minutes. Always has done. Something about hearing the same crap song played 8 times in a day that starts to get on ones nerves!

HA!! What cheek!

Kerrang, oh dear. No mate, I prefer not to work listening to people shouting angrily down a mic, while someone who can't play a guitar tries to tune one in the back ground.
 
It would be mainly to annoy/get rid of my boss.

worked at his sisters house, me and her were singing along to nickelback and bon jovi together.

he looked like a bull have its balls off!

i quite like heart actually. Always seems a nice and mellow mix.
 
My wife listens to Heart so it reminds me of her. Hence why I don't listen to it during the day (BOOM BOOM!!)

Right, I'm off to bed. Started at 8am and got home half hour ago. So a long day. Just checking on here why I scoff the spag bol, said wife left me on the side.
 
I have one of these hooked up to my MP3 or phone, it rechargeable ( via micro USB) and can last upto 8 hours, also have Bluetooth ( battery lasts 4 hours). The speaker is about half the size of a coke can, and it chucks out decent music for its size. Many people who see cannot believe how much noise it can make
 
radio ppfffft
