Yes I use that elsewhere - it's why they're in folders like that so I can play 
all 'fiftypound' and 'radioclash' files together - but there are other folders 
in those, a 'mix' one for instance….the only other way I can think of doing it 
is put them together in their own Talk directory, but then of course I won't be 
able to play the mix + talk shows together…which is what I need to do.

I've now got talkafternoon=random(weights 
[2,1,1],[mypromos,myfiftypoundtalk,myradioclashtalk]) which as I understand it 
will pick randomly from those 3 with weighting more to playing promos? Not 
ideal, would be better to be able to create a superlist of the two - could 
list.append do that?
