New Television

Tweet

Last weekend when my wife was away I happened to turn the television on. I was quite shocked how bad the picture was. When she returned I asked her how long it had been that bad she said oh for months. I asked her why she never said anything as I know she likes to watch television. She told me it was ok it can wait till next year. Hmm no it can't and I set about researching different televisions to replace this one. There are so many different types of televisions available these days and massive sizes. They are not like the televisions of days gone by these days these are smart televisions. Oh boy they can do so much I was impressed. In the end I could not make up my mind which television to buy. As many of you know I rarely watch television so I called my son in law who is very tech savvy. I told him what I thought would be a good television and he agreed with me. So I ordered it and it was delivered last Wednesday. I wrote a post about waiting in all day for the thing to arrive! The television is so thin and so light and it was so easy to install I am very impressed with my purchase and I even managed to watch a whole film without falling asleep although I dare say my grandchildren helped keep me awake during the film. When I was a kid we had a television which only had three channels. BBC1, BBC2 and ITV. The first time I ever saw a colour television was on the day they landed on the moon. The colour quality was rubbish when I think of it as the whole thing looked purple to me. I remember running home to my parents very excited telling them one of our neighbours had a colour television and I watched Neil Armstrong land on the moon. Everything was purple! It was not long after we got our own colour television. The contrasts in colour and speed of the television is incomparable to the early days not only that over 100 + Channels are available plus netlix and other pay to view sites. It connects to the mobile phone has internet installed on it oh my goodness it is amazing the difference. My question to you is do you get overwhelmed by the choice of things available these days with all their permutations and gadgets attached to them?
