Hi Trace. No it was dry for once. I checked 5 again today and it's just the same. Incidentally, I telephoned SKY to book an engineer about an hour ago and was told that it was not possible to arrange a visit until March. I mainly watch AD movies on 5 as there are very few of these on any of the other channels, and I pay £25 a month for that. I decided to unsubscribe from SKY and phoned them back. When I was asked why I wanted to quit SKY I told them that amongst other things, I cannot get an engineer visit until March. The guy told me that his computer had just crashed and volunteered to phone me back. When he came back he said that I could get an engineer out anytime this week, morning or afternoon. What do you think of that. Anyway, I told him that I was no longer interested and requested that he unsubscribe me. So that's me down and out as far as AD movies go. Hope I have not cut off my nose to spite my face, hahaha. Best wishes.
