you don't have to have the bible. the first person i heard ask for something else (maybe buddhist if i remember right?) was sandie shaw and i have heard someone else refuse it since then. i like to listen to programmes from the archives, in bed with the papers on sunday morning - you can get anyone you want on i-player so you don't have to listen to this week's programme if it's someone you aren't interested in. martin carthy seems like a good guy but i did find his choice of music pretty heavy going...
