My Letter In The Times Yesterday

I had a letter in The Times yesterday about BBC Radio, under the headline of Let’s Hear It

Amid the debates about the BBC’s licence fee some are questioning the value of the BBC’s radio stations …
Sir, Four years ago I was in hospital in Hong Kong after a serious stroke. Luckily, I had a laptop with me and I was able to listen to BBC radio
online.
BBC radio aided my recovery and certainly allowed me to keep my sanity. Those who would like to see the abolition of BBC radio should try six weeks in a hospital where the television and most of the staff are all in a foreign tongue.

I might add, that I now think that most patients in hospital should be allowed a computer or smart phone to fix their mind.  Subject of course to it not conflicting with their treatment.
