Laughing
We have a TV in our bedroom and it is so old, but has been a boon as its very repairable, still works too, anyway I found a Hitachi 17 inch screen with 2 scart lead connections on Freecycle so went and got it so now I can connect my DVD player to it cos sometimes its nice to snuggle up in bed and watch a film!!!  Very Happy

How decadent  Laughing

We don't have a tv in our room because

a) there's nowhere to put one and
b) my eyesight is so bad that without my contact lenses or glasses, I can't see the end of the bed, never mind anything else in the room... Laughing

I managed to get a complete set of video's of "Men Behaving Badly" from Freecucle, so promptly set up the tv / video / dvd player in the bedroom, then last night CP and I had a duvet moment and watched the first 20 or so episodes. Lots of laughs and an evening of total escapism mixed up with lots of cuddles. Very Happy
