Re: What would you give up?
I need both of my computers - one for work and the other for Vice City.
I use the internet on both!!!

Re: What would you give up?
Neither.
If I had to choose I would rather be deaf than blind, I am just a very visual rather than aural person.
I had a tear of joy seeing the sunset tonight, mind you listening to Marie Callas has the same affect.
If I were deaf I could always sing, and I wouldn't be able to hear how awful it was.

Re: What would you give up?
I could live without the TV and have done in the past, I much prefer music and books. Hadn't realised how old this thread was until I read that Sparky and Lettie were going to NZ, I thought they'd booked to go again!

Re: What would you give up?
OMG, total confusion????
I didn't realise it was an old thread until I just scrolled through the dates and it looks like my enrty last night was the post that did it!
I am totally confused though, as it was on the same page last night as the latest threads!
I too wondered how Mez was posting from her hols at the same time as asking me as asking me to send a pm for her!
I do sometimes look through old threads , but this wasn't one, I should have used my much valued sight more effectively!!!

Re: What would you give up?
Mystery solved as to why this thread was on the current front page.
Someone voted in the poll last night but didn't comment, which brought it to the top and totally confused me.

Re: What would you give up?
There's no contest!!! I'd give up the telly! What would people do if they can't watch house buying/doing up or buying/selling junk n tat which makes up most of the TV schedule!!!!!

Re: What would you give up?
The goggle box aint worth what we pay and threr are repeats galore. At least with music you have variety and can listen to your hearts content.

Re: What would you give up?
I must say. I miss my British TV loads. The telly and radio here is crap. Being away really makes you appreciate just how good UK telly really is. So I cannot understand why so many people complain about it.

Re: What would you give up?
I think you have a point Georgie, when your away from it you will miss it, but when its just there you can live without it, I'm finding the programmes on tv at the minute quite good but in general if I had to choose I'd still choose music.

Re: What would you give up?
I don't watch much TV so it can go. I need music and my kind isn't often played on radio, Big Band Swing, early Rock'n'Roll, Dixieland Jazz - oh I could make a very long list - so I must have the hi-fi.
Just don't ask me to give up Radio 4.
