I'm sorry but Gary Davis is no Ken Bruce BBC Radio 2

Can't believe what has happened to BBC Radio 2 - used to really enjoy listening but something has changed much for the worse. And don't get me started on Ten To The Top

I don't know why I feel like such an outsider when I'm round my family and I find it very difficult to fit in. Right now I don't want to be with them on Christmas Eve - I'd like to feel different but I don't and I haven't for years. Any advice welcome. Thanks
