Would you like to know what's happening on The Country online? You should probably just look at the website then because these two end up talking about anything but. Today's topic, Jane's antiquated speech.

Those of you who used to listen to The Farming Show (swear jar!) may remember Dom and Jamie chatting to Online Producer and Caffeine Technician "Hanoi" Jane Ferguson.

Her daily updates on what was happening online began informatively and quickly descended into bickering and three people talking over each other at once.

For some reason she has been reinstated on The Country Early Edition for a daily update on what's happening on this very website.

So now you can listen to two people talking over each other at once. This edition on What's on the Web? is about antiquated turns of phrase.

Then there's the theme tune.
