It is interesting how dependant you are of the TV. We have had 4 weeks of no TV now and it is quite frustrating. What do you do after work if you can't sit down and watch something relaxing?
The first week was worst. We had no Internet either - so we had to read books and watch borrowed DVDs on the computer (we have no lack of computers, currently 3 with more arriving).
Then we got Internet access and watched on-line moves. We used up 80% of our monthly bandwidh allowance in a weekend, so had to upgrade to 25GB/month. So now we can watch Swedish TV on-line, but we are not allowed to access BBC iPlayer from Australia.
This week is Cricket, 3rd Test against South Aftrica, so we will go to a sports bar. Never much seen the point of those before, but now I understand. Of course it is not the main game being shown as Australia is not playing, so we will not get the sound. Maybe there is a way of combining BBC Radio 4 LW and a sports bar?
Anyway, TVs and furniture should show up in around 3 weeks now and the sofabed will have been thoroughly tested for future vistiors.
