My TV stopped working a couple of days ago. I, too,
have a second TV, a small one; and at first the
digital receiver worked with it, then, it stopped too.
So, I had to listen to the Wizard of Oz -- it was on
the only non-digital channel that's dodgy on some
TVs...
I foresee a mournful Christmas... (I find it hard to
believe the city will close down, but the
neighbourhood gives every sign of doing just that,
because, I suppose, of the two-Sunday thing.
It's freezing-fog-type weather here, but not actually
freezing yet.
