Telly update

It's all wired up, plugged in and working. The case is rather battered where it got dropped, but everything seems to work (I haven't worked out how to do everything yet) and even the speaker on the damaged side is OK. At the weekend I shall try to lever the pieces close enough together to tackle them with superglue and gaffa tape; beyond that it's done.

We christened it by watching the Sunglasses of Justice on terrestrial (signal enhanced by viewing it through the VCR as reception in these parts is lousy) and then I tinkered with the digibox and we managed reasonable reception on digital freeview for once to watch CSI: New York.

Hurrah and mighty relief!

I am glad I don't have to see his sad face again!
