Welcome back! I was beginning to worry that something had happened to you with so long a time between podcasts. I hope you had a good Easter.

I like to download the podcasts from your website rather than through iTunes. How can I get the album art for my iPod?

Thank you for the album art.

It has been a month since the last podcast. Are you all right, or are you losing interest? I understand that the podcasts take time, effort and probably some expense, but you have over a thousand listeners waiting for the next podcast.

Hi

I can’t be bothered with anything these days, but shrug. I just don’t have anything to say recently.

Bye
