The good old days of television have gone haven’t they? I remember looking forward to the week-ends when I would prepare myself something to eat, pour myself a few drinks, turn on the tele, sit back and wait for a good documentary to start.

Now I sit flicking through the channels, flick flick flick I wish I were like most people and found soapies, sport and interactive television interesting. I miss the good old stuff like “Hey hey it’s Saturday”; I had a good laugh. I miss the good movies like, “To kill a mocking bird” and “lets kill Uncle before Uncle kills us”, they were black and white but they were good and not smutty. Your mum could walk into the room and ya wouldn’t have to change the channel. Now even the commercials are filthy. 

Now all the good stuff is on paid television. Call me tight as a fishes’ ar** but it all adds up and I don’t like living beyond my means I do hope most pensioners will agree with me - not to worry! Every cloud has a silver lining.

I find I’m watching less television (sometimes you can still catch a good session on free TV ) and I’ve started reading books, something I never did before. It’s relaxing and there are no commercials! Now I just have to find a good book - I can’t help judging a book by it’s cover

Okay bye now folks. It’s 7:14am, I’m gonna make me a cuppa tea, get dressed and go get me some breakfast.
