Mmmmm, difficult one this as ones tastes and options change as time goes by. F'rinstance I have a 1.8m dish which hasn't seen the outside of the garage for a couple of years now, although I have every intention of making a mount at some time in the future.

Anyway I've given it my best shot!

for the last one i answered multiple,cause if i was able to decrypt all the channels then it is almost impossible to decide which i would watch the most. the MOVIE answer was based on the variety of movies,drama,action,comedy etc,rather than be stuck with 12 months of just one type of programs,the rest where pretty straightforward answers. :-)

I am an anal retentive that now resides in Germany (good combo) - so I only answered the questions presented to me - and I only placed one tick in one box and only when I was allowed to do so.

Disaster!

Friend of mine is currently having a two month holiday, sorry, is working on that god-awful 'C-Lebrity Love Island' nonsense in Fiji. That's one thing.O-zzz:-shh

Secondly, and unbeknowst to yous lot coz i've just made it up, I have just Googled T_G's island plans - found it - and .............. its the same goddamn island :-cry1

There is one problem. According to the Fijian government that owns the island, the new palm trees implanted by ITV (they are not native to Fiji) at a cost of, well you could buy a house, kind of money ;-) --- have to stay!

When I last telephoned my contact from Germany - aboard a speedboat going back to a 12star hotel on the mainland (that bits true BTW)) - my contact reckoned that in the period between the ending of production and the time we get marooned there - the palms will have settled in and grown enough to block out the line of site for the sat dish. Apparently, that's the only place on that tiny island with a good enough grounding.

That might mean no footie/movies or ramsay's kitchen nightmares.

Maybe, we should just forget watching sat TV and just make :D OK, bad idea, but .........

what we gonna do and was we washed up/put there with some HD ready kit;)

Mark.
