    Hi

    I hope you all enjoy it. I doubt Old Stylerrs will learn anything but you should see the programme.

    As for the trail, about me v a granny. There's no competition in this - that's a bit of pr spin. There is a granny in it though - Barbara who's known as the green granny and has an OBE. She isn't an old styler on the boards (was found by the production team before i got involved) but she would fit in :)

    I could never work out how to use the recorder either despite them saying a child can do it.
    Now i'e got it sussed, firstly find yourself a five year old, then hand over the remote.

    I have a phillips DVD recorder that I have lost the instuctions for and can't fathom out how to turn the blessed thing off of standby, let alone record with it unless I unplug it completely :mad:
    I am looking forward to the programme tonight though

  • Previous episodes of the Tonight programme are on the ITV player, so I assume this one will be also for those of you who can't watch or record it tonight.

    Hiya all, on TV tonight, Friday 16 October, is a Tonight program called Thrifty ways in moden times. Starts @ 8pm for 1/2 hour.ITV 1.

    Money-Saving expert Martin Lewis goes head to head with one of the country's most thrifty women to see whether he can match her wartime austerity tips and benefit families struggling in the current climate.

    I'll have to do this, we don't get ITV, Channel Four or Five, something to do with our aerial pointing the wrong way I think, we live in the dark ages here!

    PS. You don't have to do the little survey that pops up, just close it.
