Anyone interested in a Chinese girlfriend?
Model '72. Excellent body work. High mileage but in good overall condition.
$200,000
Of course, I will have to confess to her about this but I will enjoy the punishment.
On a more serious note, I am not overly impressed by RTE and the other one. No coverage of Space Ship One in the news. No live coverage of Huygens like the BBC. Very little science programming at all. There is nothing on TV telling children that science is an option. All you see is farming, building and boring GA football (from a Kilkenny family so no problems with the hurling). I will have to take Murdoch's shilling and get the BBC through him.

No thanks, already have one. (One who got the question about the Chinese calendar wrong in the table quiz last night!)

Do you get the answers "History is boring" and "Who cares about the past?" to any question about China too? :roll:

BBC is now really free to air on Astra. No sky needed any longer. Just had it installed before xmas and works well. All the local bbc ones and all the others. Just need a second lnb and a switch.
