Dream telly
My dream telly is a reasonable sized screen, good picture, good sound and a shedload of connectors. Not even interested in internal tuners.

Re: the punishment
The book mentioned that an incident of cannibalism had occurred in the past. It did not dwell on it.
And it's not wholly a book about the fighting, it's a book about the lengths that those in authority will go to to control a population and (ultimately) about the resisting of that authority.
Read the book if you want to cite it, don't rely on second hand reports from the internet.

These systems would be telling people to call back later, then - which is what I was told.
I only go to London once or twice a year and I have an Oyster card. Get one. You'll not regret it.

Nowt wrong with DAB
I have 3 DAB radios, 2 in the house and one in the car.
The reception's fine on all 3 in rural Scotland. The only drop out that I have experienced is on the M8 in Cumbria where I can't get FM either.
One radio's on its first set of batteries and the other is on its second.
The only criticism that I have is that the bit rate is too low.

me too
That's right - Comet was the place to buy when I was a teenager. It was cheaper by far than anywhere else. It's lost its way now ............
You sure?
I thought that the concensus on who wrote Venus on the Half Shell was Philip José Farmer?

Am I the only one that remembers branches of 'Knobs and Knockers' all over the country that sold brass door furniture?
