My "home office" / hobby room is in the basement (shelter from the Cold War - it's meant to be a nuclear bunker though getting cabling run to here kind of makes it useless for that purpose) so it's nice and quiet. I listen to my iTunes collection of mainly classic rock and metal (925 albums) on my laptop through a Cambridge Audio DAC converter and Panasonic surround sound headphones. Sometimes I watch to or films on my laptop. I think Del has a good idea to listen to audiobooks books too - I guess how not to be offensive to people would be a good start.

Cheers

I'm always listening music at home while painting. Are my two faurvorites hobbies and are compatibles.
Depends of what is being painted, changes the speed.
For example, now i'm paintingh eyes, and is sounding something slow

Sorry Huw I thought
 
It depends on the day of the week and the time of the year. During the week, it's talk radio (Mark Levin and John Batchelor, on WABC out of New York), except during baseball season, when it'll be ball games. On a Saturday, it's talk radio (Larry Kudlow on the economy, and various weekend wrap-ups) and Sundays, it's a gardening talk show, then a polka music show, in the mornings, and more talk radio in the evenings (Bill Handel's "Handel on the Law" and Bill Cunningham).

Prost!

Brad I so wish I had net radio to search out polka music radio!

I am listening to 'The Honorary Consul' by Graham Greene on BBCRadio4 right now.

Radio Two until 12 noon when that prick Jeremy Vinn comes on . so it's back to Paul Simon , Big Country , The sound track from the film O Brother , Johnny Cash , a bit more Paul Simon, Fleetwood Mac , Roy Orbison , and there's a couple of new guys I'm really liking just now and that's Jake Bug and Nathanail Rateliff And The Night Sweats . Anything really that keeps my foot tapping and my head bobbing but I do like an hour or two of Rodrigo Concierto de Aranjuez it brings back those hot sunny lazy days in Spain , thewn a bit more Paul Simon .

I've tried listening to all sorts; music, radio,etc., but ,for me , nothing beats solitude,quietude,and relaxitude(?). Every now and again, a hot beverage will magically appear at my right elbow. I will mumble thanks, give her a boyish grin,and carry on butchering perfectly good figurines. When she's at her sewing table, roles get reversed. It works for us, and she always knows where I am:angelic::happy:

The old Radio 4 Shipping Forecast is a bit surplus to requirements these with the advent of the internet at sea. Our Skipper likes to source the forecast from as many possible sites as he can in the hope there will be one he likes. :wacky:

At first I though you meant liked to source sea shanties form as many radio stations as possible... Then I realised you meant forecasts. Your skipper has a very very sensible approach. I do that when I look at my finances and realise that a small investment today will make me a millionaire in a few centuries...
