Is it The Great North Run Sharron ?

Might be.

Do they do it on a field with a bal and run in all direction spitting as they go?

No GNR contestants run as fast as they can from Newcastle to South Shields :)

You sure it was football ?

You are so lucky to have a bit of eye candy, Sharron. ;-) :-D

We have words and numbers that raise an occasional groan when they read something like 'Durham 80 for 8'. Only marginally better than my grandfather watching cricket on the radio when I was a girl about ten years ago! ;-)

(Will eye candy pass the RR test, I wonder?)

My remote is behaving itself

It used to run off to watch programmes like air crash investigation and seemed to like to check up on what Mr Hitler had been up too

it seems to have lost that interest now and likes judge Judy and house renovations more

Darn thing though is losing it's hearing and constantly needs to be turned up


I am fooling it though and getting hearing aids this week !!!

Our remote has a mind of t’s own.

Yesterday it decided to show various men hitting a small ball around a large park. Today it’s recording lots of cars driving round in circles.

Shirley, I feel for you; apparently there’s a new series of Air Crash Investigators. They all seem the same to me.

It was "its my tele " who seemed to have a magic in making the remote do what he wanted .

Sadly the remote has lost that connection :-(

I don't mind seeing what Mr H is up to. At least he doesn't run around a field spitting.
