I can't believe that you admitted to that in a public forum!

Oh yeah, I forgot about Sky2 being a part-time Sky1 +1. Interesting!

We still occasionally watch a repeated Cold Case on Sky One, Two or Three but not much else. Maybe all the hype some time ago about getting the Sky basics back was misplaced. I have, surprisingly, enjoyed some programming a few months ago on some of the other Sky channels, including "Sky Arts - Suggs' Italian Job" which was a cultural tour of Italy in a mini cooper! I'm edumicated me!

Oh darn it! I've left the out again but I thought the "ooh!" tone conveyed the light-hearted nature of the comments. Anyway Mobes, you ought to know me by now.

You weren't having me on were you? Not sneakily leaving out the smileys to see how I'd react? Or, was there really a in there?

I may not be a tennis fan or, indeed, a sports fan but I will be watching QoS with Sue Barker at 19:30. I mean I'll be watching it presented by Sue Barker, I won't be watching it with her.
