One of the most frustrating programmes on the radio is Pick of the Week on Radio 4.

Every time I listen, I think 'if only I'd known that was was on'.

Thanks Galaxy, just finished listening.

Favourite line - "We don't make mistakes, we have learning moments."
Now when can I use that?

When is POTW usually on. I love radio in the workshop of an evening with a 'small' beer or three.

listening to it now on i-player. i used to make wd-40 branded toilet rim blocks for a company in devon. didn't smell like the spray.

the smell of wd reminds a friend of days her dad couldn't get the car going and so could stay at home.

It is based on fish oil, apparently.

Which is perhaps the reason why some fly fishermen chasing trout occasionally spray it on the fly before casting.

According to the manufacturer it's 60-80% petroleum distillates. tinyurl.com/ls46gx

It is good for joint pains. I would use it more but fear dermatitis.
