They said it was fine. It's not nice when young grandkids ask what erectile disfunction is!

Scott Artus (@artuscartoons) reportedI know we've got a bad storm here etc. But I can't understand why the superfast broadband won't work or stream movies, but the digital freeview aerial works.

John Duffield (@jfwduffield) reported@johnlbirch Indeed. Becoming utterly dependent on one broadcaster is just terrible business. Even worse when Sky Sports is wedded to a dying & technically outmoded business model. Cricket poses difficulties to FTA broadcasters but with Freeview they now all have multiple channels to show it.
