New TV!


New TV!
Originally uploaded by Brock.

I have finally got around to buying myself a new TV.

It is a lovely and gorgeous thing. It means I now have a clear and sharp picture, which is somewhat of a revelation. You have no idea how hard it was to play 'creeping around in the dark' games on the Playstation on a TV with poor picture, bad black definition and signal ghosting of BBC1 going across it while trying not to get shot.

Another little foible that has been an intrinsic part of my TV viewing for the last 3 years, that I will not miss, is the need to bash the crap out of the top of the box every 12 minutes as it drops out of tune. You either got a face full of white noise, or that cycling white band that you get when you see a TV on the TV (if you know what I mean).

Ahhhh. Bliss. I may even want to watch some of my DVD's now that I can see the damn things.

What are your walls made of? Papier Mache?

I'd laugh if it weren't true...

Actually my walls are fairly thick (pre-WWII building), but they've been plastered and painted over so many times...they pretty much look like glopped paper mache in some places.

Pre-WW2? Blimey.

Surely that must be one of the oldest buildings in your (tin-pot bloody) country?
