Christmas TV Guides - Double issue out soon!

socks_uk

If you are like me and love to pick up the Christmas double issue TV guides, I bought my 'What's On TV' 15 - 21st December issue this morning and it says (at the back - page 89) that the Christmas issue is on sale Tuesday 11th December (or even sooner - so it says!)

We love going through the TV guide and highlighting the programmes we want to watch and even more so this year as we are spending Christmas in Canada so need to set the Sky+ box!

I do that too. And I've always been ridiculed for it! Hooray for not being the only one :j

Well it wasn't too bad when we only had BBC1, BBC2 & ITV, and then we had Channel 4 but we only had one TV in those days!
Nowadays there are too many channels (although most of the things I like to watch are still on those 4 channels) but SKY+ and dvd recorders help make sure we don't miss anything.

It's going to be strange watching 'Christmas Day' episodes of the soaps in January!

I took advantage of six issues of Radio Times for £1 (other offer fell through as wasn't open to all !)

My 5th issue (8-14th) and 6th issue (15-21st) came early before normally due.


So I shall be seeking TV Choice 22nd Double Issue. (my favourite budget tv mag)

This year I have two PVR's. (three opportunities to record) So I shall be prepared for any clashes!


They are a marvelous invention! I'd be lost without mine.
