A week before Xmas and the blimmin television set goes on the blink.
(It's a Ferguson 3821 which has served well for 25 years or so).
So I just logged on to Dixons or whatever they are called these days and tried to do a search for new B&W tellys and couldn't find a single one.
I don't tend to watch a lot of telly, perhaps an hour a week, so buying a colour telly AND a colour licence seems a bit excessive.
Any ideas ?The court heard Darren Upton had written a letter to Judge Sally Cahill QC saying he wasn’t “a typical inmate of prison”.
But the judge said: “That simply demonstrates your arrogance continues. You are typical. Inmates of prison are people who are dishonest. You are a thoroughly dishonestly man motivated by your own selfish greed.”Comment

This is so spooky; my freeview box went on the blink this morning too. Has anyone else had things go wrong? I think something is going on and we need to be told.
I’ve just been down to Argos at Old Street and spent 15 quid on a new one. Not a bad price, but I could do without spending it.How did this happen? Who's to blame? Well certainly there are those more responsible than others, and they will be held accountable, but again truth be told, if you're looking for the guilty, you need only look into a mirror.

This is my next telly
I've already wrapped up the Humax pvr ready for Christmas day...
I'm determined to bring Mr Cojak kicking and screaming into the 21st century..."I can put any old tat in my sig, put quotes around it and attribute to someone of whom I've heard, to make it sound true."
