Sky and Spain
Dad lives in Spain with a Sky box but does not pay a subscription so only gets freeview channels. We have Sky+ here in Berkshire. My OH seems to think that if we paid for Sky Multiroom and sent Dad the card that came with it rather than using it ourselves, he could watch whatever on Sky and we pay the additional…

dear little pictures
I'm not very technically-minded (this may become clear). When I go onto my favourites list, sweet little pictures come up beside the titles (like a picture of Martin, for instance).
