It's far more terrifying to tell the stars you tried
Yesterday was consumed by a doctor's appointment of my mother's and today I had three doctor's appointments and I was already out of focus this week. I would appreciate music or links of interest, I think. At least I had donuts. The fundraiser covered all of Autolycus' medical bills, for which I thank everyone.

Much appreciated!
It was way too many doctor's appointments.
*hugs*

a Saturday Night Theatre Martin Jarvis installment you might appreciate if you want 1hr 30mins audio distraction at any time: https://archive.org/details/nicolas-freeling-king-of-the-rainy-country
(Also at Radio Echoes and OTTR and in the big SNT collection at IA.)
I hope the rest of the week has been less medically inclined. ♥
(I have not got around to posting about around half of these I've listened to. I'm not sure which is my favourite, but this one stands out to me so far as RTYI. It stars Martin Jarvis, it's v interesting & not at all typical, it's extremely well-adapted & by Philip Martin (who wrote Varos; or at least, I assume at this date) & presumably in the first place by Nicholas Freeling and there was really quite excessive whumpage.)
ETA: (You don't know how grudgy I was about being FORCED to consume Van der Valk and LIKE it and all that, but I assume you don't have entirely illogical childhood prejudices against 1970s detective shows set in Holland.)

Much appreciated! I have basically not slept in the last two days.

That's delightful. I'm surprised no one has yet commented on Gay Noon.

Very much appreciated! I have no prejudices toward Van der Valk as far as I know; the only novel I've read is Gun Before Butter (1963). How did you end up watching so much of the TV series in childhood?

I can see in the comments in the notes that, inevitably, tumblr has indeed spotted Gay Time and appreciates that it is followed by Violence, allowing fully for "Be Gay, Do Crimes" to be acted on every day. XD

I didn't: I merely developed a determination never ever to watch any for no reason whatsoever. Or read any. I nearly didn't listen to this one, but I thought I might as well try it, and then grudgingly had to admit it was pretty well done actually. But very grudgingly. (There is no logic involved, I assure you! I just... decided that it was obv Not For Me on the basis of zero information and research.)
ETA: Sorry about the lack of sleep! I hope Calm and Peace comes through for you and you don't have to see the Violent and Active part of the night/morning. <3

Oh, good! It wasn't obvious to me scrolling down, but I can't see a lot of Tumblrs past the first couple of screens on account of not having an account.

Did Martin Jarvis do any more of them for radio?

Thank you. I do like green.

I'd have to double check with Genome, but I don't think so. Just the one-off for SNT. He also did Trent's Last Case, though, and obv Craddock and Co, so he has detected elsewhere on occasion.
ETA: Oh, and this one, which actually, I really liked: Other Paths to Glory

Thank you!
