Generation War: Our Mothers, our Fathers?

......or at least wanting to watch it. Bl**dy Snooker is over running, so us non-sport loving types who've paid our licence fee can just hang on :-| :-| :-|

The programme is amazing.

Okay, the programme was due to start at 9:30, then 10:00, now it's 10:15. I hope they don't assume that we who are waiting for a decent programme to start are actually tuned in to watch snooker :-| :-|

OH is (watching the snooker) :-( :-| :-\

We were going to watch a DVD when it finished, assuming 9 pm like the other nights. It will be too late even for us night owls to watch a 155 min film :-0

Finals tomorrow, then it will be done and dusted. :-D

If Snooker was due to finish at 9pm, that will be when the programme was due to start.

....now it's not due to start until 10:30.

What's the betting they decide not to show it :-| :-| :-|

The only good thing is, I've had a shower and done my ironing whilst waiting..... (not at the same time :-D)

It's finished for tonight! Just a bit of rabbiting then something else should be on :-D

Glad you didn't electrocute yourself Maggie - water and irons don't mix. You wouldn't have wanted to get the washing wet again, anyway ;-)
