Rant number 197
As of around Thursday evening, I've had a bit of a cold that's been trying to attack. Now, that is bloody irritating - but I've already covered man flu.
Yesterday was spent at Huddersfield carnival (in which I gladly was not a participant!) and so today was set aside as a day of rest.
I quite like days when there is no itinerary involved. We can lounge around on the sofa, have leisurely lunch - with the odd snack, and watch some TV.
This plan was scuppered however by the fact that there has been bugger all on day, with the notable exception of some Columbo - for whom I have much time.
I'm not actually one to concentrate on the TV usually anyway. I'm always doing something else: playing on my phone or my laptop or doodling or something. None the less, I would still like my background noise to not be vapid crap.
There is an old line about 'all these channels but nothing on' and its so very true. When there were only 4 channels, there was often nothing on, but there was only a small chance that something would be watchable.
Now though, there is loads of channels (at least 60 on freeview) and yet still nothing is watchable.
And if there is something watchable - just to add insult to injury, there is also something else on you want to watch. It's like some kind of irritating conspiracy!
So much for a relaxed TV day.
Rant over.
