BBC Aims to Bring Home Tapestry of Britain for Troops

The General Overseas Service program calls Calling All Forces and its You Asked For It feature to recreate Britain for servicemen with sounds such as church bells stations buses and pubs. Requests include bagpipes dominoes crowd shouts and a market scene in Ormskirk with a sailor’s wife’s call. One letter even notes a bath plug sounds and a duck laying an egg. About three sounds are added weekly with more in the works as BBC records memories for troops overseas.

Ingenious BBC Sound Effects Use In Radio Plays

BBC programme operators master many sounds from station chatter to doors creaking and horse gallops. They synchronize multiple records, use an effects store with items like bells and bagpipes, and even hiss and roar through pipes for prehistoric creatures. They require musical and scientific knowledge plus a sharp sense of humor.

Dress in Hotels stir over Taree dining room attire ruling

Dubbo hotel keepers defend a publican fined £2 with costs for serving a meal to a man in casual dress. Central West USWA leader Leg Nugent says dress should reflect the hotel's dining room standard, while critics note the magistrate’s ruling may miss the point. Fellow licensees urge discretion, with some arguing hotel policy should arbitrate attire and seating. Mrs Eva W McMahon declined comment amid ongoing hotel attire debate.

Foxes menace Tin District poultry after floods

In Walcha News reporting, rabbits dwindle in the Tin District due to digging burrows and cold weather, allowing foxes to threaten poultry. A fox trapped in a bathroom by Mr. Wood and his son was killed after a noisy confrontation, following prior losses of several dozen chickens and fowls. The fox reportedly climbed a ladder to roost, prompting removal of the ladder and an early-morning hunt where a mangy fox was shot by Mr. Goodwin.

Blackleg Deaths Hit Calves Across Gratton District

The Gratton P P Board district reports heavy calf mortality from blackleg in recent months. Chairman F Maxwell says the outbreak is widespread across Almarra Municipality and the Shires of Nymboida Capmanhurst and Orara, with calf deaths over the past three months likely higher than any 20 year period. The same pattern extends to the Queensland border. Meanwhile a tourist bus stops near Tyree. A driver asks for Mrs Smith and a coat is returned from an Adelaide lost item row. The Mrs Smith who was in Adelaide three weeks earlier retrieves the coat from the rack.
