I'm sorry I forgot you commented before, which would be why your comment was not held for moderation. I get about 60 spam comments a day inviting readers to their commercial (or porn) sites and I this was one. Please keep commenting. I feel like a prize chump - you were sending a link that I might be interested in and I thought "Eh up, sonny. I know your game." Turns out I didn't know your game and I apologise.

My problem is that Classic FM is always on in the background so I'm not really soaking it up. Thanks Dan. And since this is a link to a commercial site, can you please mention my blog on your homepage? Thanks! Thanks FB.

Well, not exactly, I recognise things, I just generally don't know who wrote them or what they're called (although since they're all called generally the same thing, just with a different number or key, that doesn't help). The closest I usually get is trying to pin down a memory of having played it once. Which isn't really useful to anyone. I find I can only manage Classic FM in short bursts. After they've been playing the same adverts every hour for a fortnight, my tolerance tends to reach breaking point and I have to switch off for a few months to recover!
