We start the new year with a look back at some of our favourite pieces from 2025.  There was a lot to choose from and if we have not picked your favourite then why not listen back to the archive at shineradio.uk

We visit France, Holland and London (by way of Vietnam) and also come a little closer to home with a trip to Hambledon.

Drinking with Phill and Mags - Jan 2026

On the first Sunday of every month there's karaoke and chess at St Peter's Hall from 11am until 1pm, and, surprisingly perhaps, it’s organised by St Peters Church. 

It’s a social activity suggested by members of the congregation and features all types of songs (and singing), from the musicals to Take That! 

The Reverend Will Hughes tells Mike Waddington where the idea came from and the community ideal behind it. 

He also talks about their bell ringers and the choir but concedes he's yet to try the karaoke.

More details about all this at St Peter's Church of England in Petersfield and Facebook
