I don't own a television.

This could be because I'm a bit of a hippy, because I think I'm better than you, or because I'm broke. Dealers choice on the explanation.

But the other day I ate a breakfast that was hand delivered to me in bed, whilst watching an episode of Little House on the Prairie, & drinking one a the true gems of existence; a cup of tea at the perfect temperature.

If that's not the crème de la crème i don't know what is.

We have such idiotic laws that if you use electricity in your home you have to pay for TV and Radio broadcasting services regardless if you own a TV set or not. 😐 I wonder if this is normal elsewhere.

@cherokeepatti I'm not in UK but I wonder if BBC does something like that too.

@CrazyMusicLover Same here, kind of.

@CrazyMusicLover Yes the government has people buying a TV license to support BBC.

I wouldn't have one myself, but I have children and they've always loved watching stuff on TV. Good thing is, I can now watch "Midsomer Murders"! 😏

@cherokeepatti You could also use a radio, couldn't you! The radio will report all weather events too.

@helenS Radios don’t give visuals like the local news station does and those visuals are really important when you watching the timeline. I didn’t have a tv back in the mid 70’s for a short while but the weather wasn’t as severe and weird as it is now then either.

@cherokeepatti Thank you – I fully understand. I live in Central Europe, and Western and Central do not have those extreme weather events. In Winter it's about colder than in Summer, that's all... 😏

So wait.. You watched it via tablet? Computer screen? Phone screen? Or projector??

It’s those little things like those that make life worth living.

I’m just curious as to who was actually broadcasting a show that old.
