i all, I have been reading this forum with increasing unbelieve. A forum about (offshore) radio and what are we doing? Mumbling about elections. The past few weeks history has been written.

There are far too many wonderfully funny lol Fake Anoraks on this Speakeasy thing – http:/​/​members.boardhost.com/​christopherengland

I'm not sure if it's a wind-up, but there's mention on http:/​/​anorakphobia.blogspot.com of the recent death of an anorak, but the name isn't mentioned.

We only have archives here going back to October 2006, which is three of your Earth years. I've probably missed a few essentials but.... Three years ago we were mentioning:

2009/​6/​14 Peter G. Millington-Wallace <(Address removed)>: I'm making a distinction here between anoraks and 'radio anoraks'.

According to http:/​/​lazygit.no-ip.info:5560/​ Stream is up at 64 kbps with 47 of 60 listeners (47 unique)

Just been looking through the hilarious http:/​/​anoraknation.blogspot.com where everything that's said on (mainly) Garry Stevens's board, but also some of the things said on Anorak Nation are...

Ha ha ha.

Neil I think your main problem in running Radio Shoestring (not a bad name eh?) will only arise if it becomes TOO MUCH of a success. To be honest if only a few anoraks listen,who cares?...

Did you know there's a Newsletter sent out at 1am every day summarising the previous 24 hours? Go here:

Quoting a previous tesug contribution:- What if I sang "Rock Me Amadeus" instead?

Quoting a previous Christopher England contribution:- ~ Just to add: I had to put the official Anorak Nation Christmas tree up (on the site) all on my own, such is the lack of anoraks these days.

Quoting a previous Graham Jones contribution:- Graham, curb this, eh? Can we keep things on-topic about radio rather than this tendency to just constantly slag-off contributors?

(part of an article written for elsewhere, extracts included on http:/​/​www.christopherengland.com the home of the truth)

Now then, in its current location (Jigluhood) the archive is here right the way back to October 2006. That's almost 3 of you human's Earth years.

Quoting a previous Eric Wiltsher contribution:- ~ Nice idea. The problem is really two fold, however.

The Anorak Nation poll "The picture on the front of the middle row of Anorak Nation's homepage is inside:" has been closed. The results are:

I titled this "RNI – wtf is it about?" because I want to say a few words about Garrrry Stevens's's internet radio stream RNI (more details: http:/​/​www.garrystevens.pwp.blueyonder.co.uk/​rni ).

The Anorak Nation poll "Big L (Frinton)'s worst showing ever in RAJAR is because" has been closed. The results are:

Why is it that Anoraks don't like Radio 2? (Don't forget it's up to you to compose and submit Polls!)

The Anorak Nation poll "Michael Jackson was" has been closed.

The Anorak Nation poll "The Licence Fee" has been closed.

The Anorak Nation poll "The poll thingamie" has been closed. The results are: Yes it works: 4 votes Oh no it doesn't: 1 votes The total number of votes cast was 5.

The Anorak Nation poll "The only option left for the remaining directors of IOMIB and 279kHz is" has been closed. The results are:

If all the radio anoraks in the world are now on Facebook, doesn't that make Digital Spy/​MediaUK/​musicradionews/​Anorak Nation, etc., etc., completely redundant and pointless?

I just had a scoot round for the first time in a dog's age, and I see that the person so infatuated with me that he has to use the Anorak Nation name for his blogspot blog is back and attacking...

'Anorak Nation's happy difference: Most of us were there when Marconi first developed his spark-gap transmitter.' As is the same with most anorak forums.

Ok this is an Anorak site - and I am a self confirmed anorak needing help. I am looking to make contact with other self confessed anoraks who maybe in to swapping. Swapping?

The Anorak Nation poll "Radio 2's current output " has been closed.

Quoting a previous Sterling Times contribution:- ~ Blimey, that'll upset the fish-wives and haters who post elsewhere about not much else but the technical issues surrounding the legendary Anorak...

Ha ha ha. Subject field got yer, didn't it? Wrong. There is absolutely no way Mark Stafford would ever be banned, edited, or have contributions deleted from Anorak Nation.

Whoa, bit of a scare there. I've not been here for so long that I had to re-log-in and I couldn't remember my password. But, I got there.
