On hiatus.

Hi folks.
Sorry, but those circumstances really are not good. We're going to be on hold for a while.
See you soon!
Spike.

A pause and a change.

Hi folks, Spike here. Just to let you know that circumstances beyond out control are forcing us to slow down on the posts.For the next few weeks, there will be posts on Tuesdays and Thursdays, and maybe one or two extras.

Sorry about this. We love you all.

That's what I'M talking about!

Here in Britain, we have been gradually switching our TV signals from analogue to digital. Essentially, it should give us more channels and a clearer picture. What it really meant was a lot of people suddenly finding that they can't watch the four or five channels they were happy with. Well, not unless they either forked out a small amount for a digital adapter, or for a new TV and/or aerial.

What with all of that, we were discussing whether it was worth our while switching our phone line/internet provider to someone that deals with TV too. We looked at details for a while, bit it evidently all got a bit too much for Julie. all those details, comparisons, offers, etc. Julie looked at me and tried to tell me what offer may have been the best - or was it that she wasn't bothered at all? Or maybe she meant something else? I was completely lost, to be honest. And it seemed I wasn't alone...

Uh....
...what..?
