After some unnecessary cursing about Curry’s, the new 50” tv has arrived, and the eldest boy has put it all up and connected all the wires.
After the last tv (20 years old) I was amazed at the weight of this new one. I had two 3” x 2” timbers bolted to the chimney breast (making it a flat 6” x2”) and had bought a universal fixing bracket, weighted to take 100kg. Well that should hold it I thought - checked the weight of the tv and it was 10kg! I could probably have hung the thing on two coat hooks.
Surfing through the channels, we both came to realise why we hadn’t rushed to replace the tv over a year ago - loads of channels, mostly showing crap. But we do have YouTube and Amazon Prime.
I will have to spend the rest of this lockdown surfing free view for something decent to watch. Mrs TB is adamant that anything with Jason Statham in it is not in the category of ‘something decent to watch!’.

I replaced my 47" flat screen with a 65" flat screen in June, the 47" was probabay twice as heavy as the 60"

I’m with her on that, tbh.

Sadly I can’t tell you any of that.
It is a Panasonic, Mrs TB has some kind of iPhone, whereas I have a mobile phone out of the ark, and virtually never used (this was where all the unnecessary cursing about Curry’s came from - they sent me 4 texts telling me the tv was being delivered, and I hadn’t switched my phone for several weeks, and missed all of them). I suppose it was funny for the delivery men, who were greeted by a couple clearly not long out of bed, and having no idea why they were knocking at our door.

So, you post on this site from a desktop rather than smartphone, while me on the other hand am typing this from the crapper while coiling out a very satisfactory log??

My first house had a BT phone hard wired to the upstairs toilet as I got pissed off missing calls when sat on the shitter. But then discovered the amount of nuisance calls you can make whilst curling one out. :grin::grin:

Can you do a little video, where you smile and say “Honey, I’m home!”, or even that bit where he puts the axe through the bathroom door?
