When there is absolute crap on TV I go to my Apple,TVs and my subscription to the BBC. Lots to watch there and only $8.99 a month.Ted watches on his IPad as I do but some things require a bigger screen hence the  Apple TV which I saw at Hardley Normals for just $88. You do need to have a wireless network in the house though.

I enjoy Escape to the Country and a few other bits and pieces. Not reality shows though usually. DH carries on like a pork chop with some shows and it is easier to turn off and read than leave my chair to watch elsewhere. I do insist loud and long about GBBO though.

About to start the annual Harry Potter'thon..... Oh yeah the entire story from Philosophers Stone through to The Deathly Hallows 2. Will admit that it will seem a bit strange to this Northern Hemisphere lad who is used to associating HP with all the wintery weather. So watching it in sunny (?) Brisbane will be a novelty. Best I do some studying tomorrow though as I have a few big exams this week (hence why I have been relatively quiet of late - rest assured TMX has been keeping us (MrsRC2B)well fed though!)

Right then "expeliamos"

We are not a fan of reality shows either, DH says they ruin his TV screen :D  I prefer a good english comedy or a mystery show.

I washed the linen from the van this morning as it was nice and sunny and then decided to wash the kitchen windows as well.  Now I will have to do the rest of the house.

Good morning everyone. 5.45 at the moment, just having a quick breakfast, got to be at Dd's to babysit by 7.
DD & SIL are involved with a fun run, so DH & I get to spend a little time with 3 GK's.

Good to hear DJ, sounds as if you are on the right track.

Enjoy your day with the GKs Katj, I'm having mine dropped off to me tomorrow morning for a couple of days.

Up at 0500 cleaning the pool after a windy night. Then reading papers on line. Then a swim in pool followed by preparations for lunch. Back to the pool and reading Kindle while listening to some favourite classical discs. ( a secret passion Dear Readers)

Seems I lost track so lunch at 1530 . Prawn Risotto with salad and a wonderful bottle of Hardys The Riddle bubbles .

And now back into the pool with another glass of. Bliss!

Nice to see you enjoying the weekend and hopping out of the pool to set the TMX going for a lovely lunch Gert.

Gert...... There is nothing I can say other than "I like your style!"

Trying to shake off a nasty cold that MrsRC2B seems to have lovingly shared with me. Hope things clear up prior to tomorrow otherwise my exam will be more miserable than I am already expecting.

The risotto looks lovely Gert and the read in the pool fantastic.
RC dose yourself up, and good luck for the exam.
