Could you live without one ?

I often get called weird/ strange for not having a tv and admitting that it is by choice. I get called it anyway for other reasons so it's not a problem.

Could you live without a TV and what would you do instead ?

Researching:
Turner, Staniforth in Beighton and Ridgeway Sproat in Sheffield and Cumbria

Now thinking of it...I haven't watched the television for over a week.....so busy...have had the radio on though......I think I could live without it for a while, but would feel out of touch before to long I expect.

Lol Suzian...that is how my son got one of ours :-))))
