I've merely dipped a toe so far, but was delighted to see that your survey includes the storytape edition of Pigeon Post. The reader, Gabriel Woolf, was an ardent AR fan. I seem to remember that he proposed the original broadcasts to the BBC and suggested himself as the reader. He had a remarkably distinctive voice and his reading beautifully recreated the sultry atmosphere of the summer drought. It would be marvellous to hear it again - any chance of a sound clip on your excellent site?
