Oh, according to TV Licensing site you can watch iPlayer etc without a license, as long as you don't watch them at the time of broadcast but afterwards.. so if I ever get round to sorting laptop that could be handy!Debt@16.12.09 £10,362.38, now debt free as of 29.02.2012."I cannot make my days longer so I strive to make them better."0

Squizz, thats excellent about iplayer - and who cares about watching at the time anyway!
But as for the texts.......... ah, the txtg generation! It were different in my day, we had two tin cans with a string between 'em.....

I bet you had to walk 12 miles to school in the snow in bare feet too...? :rotfl:
Essentially I should stop being so lazy, I can get on MSN on my phone so should use that more rather than texting so much, that would be freeDebt@16.12.09 £10,362.38, now debt free as of 29.02.2012."I cannot make my days longer so I strive to make them better."0 -

Do you have internet on your phone? I just go through that, the mobile site is OK but a little bit fiddly, you have to keep refreshing to see new messages.
The more I think about it, I only watch TV out of habit.. background noise.. nothing I'm that bothered about missing. Might treat myself to a DVD rental subscription if I do decide to get rid of it, but that would still be cheaper than £100+ per year...Debt@16.12.09 £10,362.38, now debt free as of 29.02.2012."I cannot make my days longer so I strive to make them better."0 -
totally cheaper ...i do have interenet but when i tried the msn before it wouldnt work ...i think the problem as my nephew is fond of saying is a picnic (problem in chair not in computer ) ie: me i am so useless at these things ..
how much would the dvd subscription cost in a year?0 -
Just having a look - Tesco have a 3 disc per month one for £5.85 so £70.. hmm not that much cheaper. Think I've done most of the free trials at some point but can check that out too.Debt@16.12.09 £10,362.38, now debt free as of 29.02.2012."I cannot make my days longer so I strive to make them better."0

librarys do them for free ...well they do here anyway ...
another alternative would be a cinema subscription £10 a month see all the films you want
or there is good old radio getting the laptop fixed and watching on iplayer ?0 -
