It's Coming Home - But Not In Time For The World Cup

A rather tenuous link to my my new telly which I hope to have toward the end of next week (w/c 10/07/06). Finally decided on a Sony Bravia 40" LCD TV after doing a lot of research on the subject. There is a big gap on the HiFi stand at the moment which is only partially being filled by a portable telly drafted in from the Bedroom. I have sold my 32" crt to friend of Carol from work and it wasn't until we tried to move it I remembered how heavy it was (around 70kg!!) I have always liked Sony TV's and the new one will be great. I have also ordered some high quality but reasonably priced component A/V leads from a place in the States and I hope these arrive in time for the Telly. Time to dig out those old DVD's I haven't watched for a while.

No sailing last weekend or this i'm afraid due to a combination of other commitments and weather but hope to get out on the water soon. Next week though I'm off to RAF Fairford for the International Air Tattoo with a friend of mine. He has managed to get some tickets for the event and we are due to go there on Sunday complete with Sarnies drinks and of course my camera.

The weekend after is the "Black Country Experience" - Janet, Andy, Carol and myself are coming to the West Midlands for the weekend on a pub and culture tour but mainly with the emphasis on the pubs. It 's my Birthday that weekend to so I intend to make the most of it.
