Subject: RE: What do you do when not on Mudcat
I don't watch TV cos I don't have one. I know I miss some great programs on history/archaeology/arts/travel ...

We didn't get one till I was 14, same time we moved & I got a room of my won, started isolating in my new room, pretending I was studying!

So I didn't watch much TV & more importantly, I didn't get into the habit in the next 10 years before I moved out.

When my brother went overseas in 1978 I had his TV & watched a bit until it died.

Next time I deliberately watched some TV was when I visited my 2 year old nephew & watched a few hours of kid's TV with him - we saw Bananas in Pyjamas! & other classics - he's 15 now & the only TV I've seen since was the occasional bit in a pub or store window.
