I Really Really Want Sky!

  • All you lot can think yourself lucky, - we can only get about five English channels on our Freeview ! We get CNN, Sky News, BBC World, a Business channel (can't remember what it's called) and Travel Channel.

    As regards Sport we watch the Formula 1 in Spanish and watched the World Cup in German.

    The whole system including the dish was 90 euros from Lidl here in Spain.

    However, another expat from the next village is having Sky installed soon and she is going to sell us her Astra freeview set-up cheap (it has a slightly bigger dish than ours). You can't get Channels 4 and 5 but you can get most of the other English ones. I'm looking forward to it - I can watch Corrie again!

    Imagine someone holding forth on biology whose only knowledge of the subject is the Book of British Birds, and you have a rough idea of what it feels like to read Richard Dawkins on theology: Terry Eagleton
