Collings and Herrin Podcast Wales 1

Hurrah! Got a mention and some snapshots published on the Collings and Herrin Blog. If you haven’t tried them yet, Andrew Collins’ and Richard Herring’s brand of Humour is not for the sensitive, or easily offended, but I love it. It brightens up many a boring car journey via the gift of the ipod.
