Plans for today (2026)

Our living tv is about 8 years old and whilst I’m quite happy with it after much complaints about burn out, fading, dimness, being unresponsive and impossible to game on (I prefer to think of all of that as ‘quirky’ 😂) I have finally conceded it’s not great and am off to Bristol to pick up a new tv.
I wasn’t planning on going today but the weather turns a bit ugly here tonight and I’d rather not be driving to n fro in it tomorrow, friday traffic is bad enough as it is, without the inevitable moron crashes and jams that happen anytime we move away from middling weather.

What I’ve not mentioned is I’m still not getting rid of the old tv, I’m going to store it in the fantasy ‘moving to the Isle of Man’ pile of stuff. I’m sure they’ll all be super stoked when it finally all comes together and they walk into the new place to see that hunk of ageing plastic again 😜

It kinda sounds like a bad marriage...

My "aging plastic" TV is 13 yo and fine. What I noticed at Walmart the other day is what I paid for my 43" you can now get a 63". Good thing I'm not a fan of the idiot box too much.
