I've developed an unexpected desire to listen to BBC Radio 3 and Radio 4.

Between crooked spire and sloping stone angel, lies a territory of sorcery. For not only is the boneyard a place of talking to the dead, it is a home to grim guardians and workroom for witches who want to toad-plough graves. – George Kindred, 'Witch County,' 1970
