Andrew, a man in a van, and Lewis, a woman in a van, talking about stuff. In a van. What sort of stuff? Mostly books, the outdoors, food, drink, board gaming, and van life. We'll be with you prently.
Join the team as they write their very own appendix to the Orkneyinga Saga, having decided, quite sensibly, to attempt to travel to the archipelago during Storm Amy. Yeah, that one. Another St. Kilda? It's the hope that kills yer. Between the tempest, storm and wind we find the puff to discuss Peter Marshall's 'Storm's Edge: Life, Death and Magic in the Islands of Orkney' and Tanith Lee's 'When The Lights Go Out'. Are there lots of big rocks, too? Yes, of course there are, stonebaggers! So, heed the call of the curlew, ride the Skateboard of Doom, and hang on to your bacon bap in this latest unmissable episode of: A VOICE IN A VAN (distant thunder)

The quilting point: capers in Cardiff
A first-class (cricketing) episode in which the team discusses Dorothy Edwards's 'Winter Sonata' and 'Rhapsody and Other Stories', together with Claire Flay's study of the author and Michael Moorcock's 'Hawkmoon' quartet. Along the way, we go to pieces over quilts, find a pub (I know, you're shocked) in a heritage museum, and hunt for Welsh cakes in Cardiff's arcades. Expect big Belgian bottles, 250 years of impressionism, and ripples of polite applause from the stands. We'll have you in stitches in no time - because there is no time in a multiverse, right? Jolly well played.

When close to home is far away
The team batten down the hatches at Norman's Bay, blithely hanging on to the roof while they discuss Monica Dickens's 'Mariana', Mary Chamberlain's 'Fenwomen', Ronald Blythe's 'Akenfield', and Gilles Deleuze and Félix Guattari's 'Anti-Oedipus'. There is singing, but don't worry, it's not a shanty.
