I'd prefer it if you could buy a season ticket for your club so that you could watch all of their games. I'm not interested in Bolton v Stoke but I'd pay more than I do at the moment for me and my armchair to have access to every Man U game

I've never had the slightest desire to watch a football match.

Or films on Sky.

Which seemed to cause the nice lady who phoned me up one evening in the middle of my dinner some conceptual difficulty.

I tried to explain to them once that I was more interested in how good a film was, than how new it was.

They didn't understand that either.

as the rest of the stuff does seem to be pap.....

I mean you can sit and watch tv all day but why would you want too??

If WW3 looked imminent, a lot of those Sky engineers might be drafted into the Signal Corps and REME etc

Lay off the drugs son.

Fringe, Bones, Lost, NCIS, and I suppose the LA version of same.

Now you mention it, why do I pay Murdoch £260/yr for that?

because your addicted to murdochs drugs, and you need the daily fix
of those channels to function.

after having sky for several years I cancelled the contract several months ago and just started watching all the freeview channels, much more happier
and kids now spend more time doing their homework and playing rather than
being super glued to the box everynight!.

Ditch Sky, ditch Virgin, just get a nice big flat screen and pipe your PC, DVD/VHS player, and games console(s) through it.

Job's a good 'un.

Until the message 'insufficient bandwidth' comes up whilst streaming your favourite show in catch up TV in the evening.

So yes, it is as bad as WW3

Good point well made

[OwlHoot]

Sorry no, the OP

hardly WWIII now is it?!

One of the best service engineers I have ever had to deal with is our local Sky representative.

I've never even had the bother of dealing with Sky service engineers - it's easily avoided and has the benefit of saving cash.

Not meaning to be a grumpy bastard, but Jesus mate, get some perpective!!
