TV or Radio Times

[aclivity]

<font color='#810541'>'cos I've never done a poll before, and it's a slow day in work.

I usually get the Christmas Radio Times, I don't buy it through the year though.  I get the RT because it has the radio listings as well as the telly, but I still tend to flick through the channels anyway.

what does everyone else do?

If you have to have one or the other it has to be RT for me, but not getting one this year as no doubrt telly will be as s**** as any other time, plus you get a TV guide with Telewest's cable .

So, which other sad mugs are still at work in the run up to the holidays apart from us two

<font color='#000080'>me &nbsp; &nbsp;right up till christmas eve. then a train journey from cambridge to liverpool. fantastic.

i don't watch television, i read books (how old do i sound?! ) currently bonfire of the vanities, then i'll re-read anna karenina cos it's so good.

is there anything good on over christmas that i should make the effort to watch?

I'm still here too, &nbsp;I have got Christmas eve off though but have to be back at work next Monday morning &nbsp; .

Inbetween I've got a drive up to Glasgow via Derby and back aswell.

As far a Christmas TV goes, I had a look through the RT at the weekend and there does appear to be absolutely b*gg*r all on.

Although that won't matter much as I'll be spending the time with the missus' relics and I have no idea how different Scottish TV will be from standard sarf English fare. (Hopefully, it'll be alot better). &nbsp;

(Mind you new Twin Towers DVD may get a look in of course.)

<font color='#810541'>not really - usual fare (although I do like to watch The Snowman, even if it is a 20 year old repeat).

Christmas day, midday-ish on radio 4 is &quot;I'm sorry I haven't a Christmas Carol&quot;. &nbsp;As I'll be in the car driving from Cheshunt to St. Helens, that'll probably be on. &nbsp;Unless the sprogs are awake, in which case the Tweenies Christmas CD will be on.

please, please, please be asleep! (I know! &nbsp;I'll give them the radio times to read, that should put them to sleep).

I'm in work today and tomorrow, then Christmas eve at home, and the hols will be our usual 1000 miler - visiting family in the north west, north of the lakes and possibly even the deeps of mid wales. &nbsp;Back to work on the 5th of Jan.

Bugger that for a holiday schedule Andy! We should do some diving once you get back to the fold.

Maybe all this snow business would mean you could get 'trapped' down here in the Shandy drinking sarf....

Hmm, thinking about diving, I've just found out that my cousin is getting married in Newcastle on the Easter weekend, whilst my sisters wedding is already scheduled for the May Bank holiday weekend.

They've planned to destroy my diving season, I'm convinced...

<font color='#0000FF'>If the children go out, and no-one drops round unexpectedly, and I'm still awake, then I try to watch some Xmas TV. Just turn it on and flick.

The problem with Sky is I can't tape one channel when the kids are watching another.

Still - soon be Hogmanay!!

<font color='#008080'>nooooooooooooooooooo




books are good but you can't read them when you've had one too many brandies and the words go all wobbly

Easy solution, tell them that you've decided to become a Sunderland supporter (well, someone's gotta do it) then they won't allow you to go to the wedding &nbsp;
