20091124 - Aerial

Last night I had no ITV, Ch4, Ch5 etc on the telly, usually it sorts itself out and slowly comes back on its own. But tonight it was still off and no hint of anyone admitting to problems with the transmitter. So, I braved the attic and fiddled with the wire... miraculously I've now got all my telly channels back - and I hardly did anything at all!
But there was no way I was taking the camera up there - shudder! So this is the aerial from the portatelly that's screwed to the wall in the kitchen. Same difference. Honest. ;o)
Didn't fancy another night out in the wind and rain either. Besides, my shoes are still drying out from last night!

A clever display of talent.

I thought that was a cheeky glass of claret from the thumb...wouldn't have surprised me :o) Glad you're in RX mode again, although telly's so bloody awful I don't think you missed much...

Certainly weather for being in front of the fire, and watching a bit of telly...providing the telly works that is.

It could be a halo if it wasn't for the devilish red colour

Great graphic.
Love that red.

This channel is very pretty, but the plot doesn't seem to be going anywhere... ;o)

I keep hoping the antenna will fall of the roof, would be a pleasure to be "off the air " for a while as I'm tired of fake reality !! :O

Switch it off and put on the wireless, much more entertaining.

Wonderful, its was on the local news tonight that they have been doing maintenance work and some people lost signal, thats not your local news though so you probably did fix it.
