where am I?

    Broadcast news...

    I'm off to do a radio interview this morning, which is rather nice. I'm going to be talking about Aga, of course, and encouraging people to tell us about their Aga memories. I really enjoy going to radio studios - I find the technology completely fascinating, the vast desks full of buttons and sliders seem intricate and exciting and the idea that you can reach so many people is thrilling.

    Whenever I talk about the Aga on a radio programme I'm usually inundated with emails from listeners, telling me the bits I've missed out. They'll write saying that I forgot to say that bread from an Aga tastes divine or that a Sunday roast isn't the same if it's cooked in a conventional cooker. Or they tell me that I forgot the bit about reviving lambs or how puppies are deprived unless their owner has an Aga for them to sunggle in front of.

    So, I'm sitting here trying to remember everyone's favourite thing about the Aga. My personal feeling is that the sheer simplicity of an Aga is difficult to beat. There are no knobs and dials to worry about and, unless you truly forget you've put something into one of the ovens, the food always does come out tasting utterly delicious.

    One of the other guests on the show today is someone who teaches a pole dancing exercise class. While I'm confident I can convert her to Aga cooking, I can't see that she'll ever be able to change my mind about yoga being the best form of exercise.
