Letter to the Editor: Jazz Radio

Dear AMB Cote d'Azur,
 
I found your site through Google and maybe you can help me find what I'm looking for: I've spent my holidays at La Colle sur Loup in August. We had the music always on in the house, a radio channel, all the time with great music, mostly jazz. It was 98.15 and I would LOVE to listen to it from home on the Internet.

Do you have any idea of the name of the radio? or if it is available on the Internet? So I can feel I'm still there, and dream a bit until next August... :-)

Thank you for your help!

Kind regards,
Marina

Dear Marina,
 
I'm delighted to be able to help you dream until you're back next August. The radio station you listened to is called: TSF Jazz 98.1

You can hear them over the internet if you follow this link to their website:

I must admit that I love jazz too and am presently listening to this radio station through my computer!

Kind regards,
Alice

Julia Child: My Life in France

If, like me until recently, you had never knowingly heard of Julia Child, it will help to understand that she was, so to speak, America’s answer to Elizabeth David.  It was she who, after the second world war, introduced the dishes and techniques of French cooking to, principally, her countrywomen.  I had been aware of, but never read, her encyclopaedic work Mastering the Art of French Cooking, but could not have told you who had written it (or even that it was an American book).  In fact, Julia Child later parted company from Elizabeth David: while David went on to explore the cuisines of Italy and other Mediterranean countries, Child stuck to that of France but developed her teaching skills into pioneering television cookery programmes decades before they came to clog up our TV channels on a daily basis.

 

Sarah's Midnight Anthology

A year ago I introduced readers of this website to an old friend, Sarah Nock, who had written an insightful  –  and surprisingly funny  –  account of what it is like to suffer from Parkinson’s disease.  (My review of Ponderings on Parkinson’s is still on-site.)  Now she has published another book of a quite different kind: an anthology of verse, but one with a difference.
