RADIOSTATIONS

I know that some of you would be really keen on listening to real English on the radio so I thought these links to British radiostations could be of great help to you. I have thought that every time I come across an interesting English language radio station, I could add it to the right menu. So Check out the menu from time to time so as to see whether there is a new link.

These are the first radiostations on this blog:
KissCanaries is a local English language radio station broadcasting from Puerto de Mogan (99.4) to Maspalomas, Playa del Ingles and San Agustin (102.5) and along the entire south coast of Gran Canaria. You can always listen online at KissCanaries.com
LBC radio station broadcasts from London. It is talk radio for London on current affairs and news affecting London. Besides,not only do listeners hear about current issues but it also offers the chance to read them. It can be listened on www.lbc.co.ukThese are the first stations you could start listening to.

The Boy in the Striped Pajamas -

This is one of the most touching stories about the Holocaust. It is based on a book, also called 'The Boy in the Striped Pyjamas'. It tells the friendship between these two boys. It is worth reading it. I highly recommend it.
