How lovely it is to once again vada the dolly old eel of Round the Home, the radio comedy series which ventured where few had gone before in the late 1960s. For four series, suave and unruffled host Kenneth Home battled manfully with a marauding parade of characters, from enterprising chorus boys Julian & Sandy and warbling songsmith Rambling Syd Rumpo to booming Daphne Whitethigh and breathless thespians Charles & Fiona.

In this latest collection of episodes, we listen in to an interview at the BBC personnel department. Kenneth Home, master spy, has serious trouble when the evil Ginsberg causes people to assume the characters of animals, Julian & Sandy suggest something decadent for the garden, and, in a wartime drama, Fiona finds something lacking in her marriage to Charles.

Audio books really are a wonderful thing, not only do they transport you to other worlds, introduce you to other people’s ideas and culture, they are also a lot more flexible than books. The book drains your time in a world where time is a very valuable thing, in mp3or wma format however; stories can be listened to anywhere and on any music device. It doesn’t matter if you use an mp3 players or a cd player, whether you are jogging, washing the pots or transforming the boring commute to work with excitement and intrigue and you can listen to them at any time.

Now with the internet audiobooks are a lot more accessible and easier to obtain than normal books, going online for them is quick, simple and saves time that would be other wise spend trawling through stores trying to find one you really want.

Many sites offer a few free downloadable introductory titles, to get you started and no doubt hooked on the splendour of them. What better way to spend a Saturday evening than to sit back, relax and enjoy a good audiobook, instead of renting a dvd or stagnating in front of the television. Unlike rentals, they can be kept for life and enjoyed again and again.
