The Junk Affair (7 October 1957)
The Burning Embassy (14 October 1957)
The Missing Battleship (18 November 1957)
Ten Snowballs That Shook The World (10 February 1958)

Goon but not forgotten! From 1952 to 1960 the Goons ruled the airwaves, the most celebrated and influential clowns in the history of radio.

So GO ON - join junk king Neddie as he tries to salvage the world, go in hot pursuit of Fire Chief Seagoon when he blazes a trail to old Peking (he has a burning ambition), sail the seven ponds with bold pirate Captain Jim 'Bilge' Moriarty, and help Stock Market runner Seagoon save the pound (it's a sterling effort).

And what is the message written on the soles of their feet? It's a footnote.

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.
