Money Laundering

I just managed to put £3.53p through the ultra-hot wash. (I was taking pshtaku's advice to try to shrink my jeans.)

At least it is now clean - very clean - money.

DAB Reception

I tried this one on my local edinburger community, but to no avail as yet, so I thought I would throw it open to the wisdom of my f-list...

I have a DAB hifi radio, and over the past three or four weeks I have noticed that the reception has steadily deteriorated - there are now so many cracks and gurgles that it is almost unlistenable to.

At first I thought it might be the weather, but it has not gone away.

I have an interior aerial - which was fine until October. The signal strength is fine: according to the unit's instructions, I should be getting really good, clear reception (the minimum for a clear sound is 5/16; my signal is 15/16) - but it is still gurgling. It is a mains-powered unit. Aaagh!

Any ideas or suggestions welcome. (Please don't tell me to get an external aerial, though! Or to move flats...)

"And did those feet
In ancient times,
Walk upon England's mountains green?
And was the holy Lamb of God
In England's pleasant pastures seen?"

Well, no, but it's a cracking good tune.
