It’s Thursday - the day before a very special day involving a Colin. Need we say more? Before we get to Colin, Jane and Fi cover cheerful train drivers, dobbing in your neighbours, disposing of deceased pets, and the fickle nature of muslin. There are also a few parish notices, including mention of a new playlist…

Plus, Ian Russell, father of Molly Russell, discusses the upcoming documentary Molly vs the Machines.

Our next book club pick is 'A Town Like Alice' by Nevil Shute.
