Schrödinger’s radio

The radio in my room has started to develop a phobia of me. It works perfectly, except if I am in the room alongside it. Standing on the left hand side of the room produces crackling, and the right side just kills all of the signal. Tuning it in is a bit like seeing if the cat is dead…

I rarely work without Radio 4 harping away in the background. My ‘office’ will thus have to relocate to bars, cafés and other more sociable places.
