Now I know

that I might be opening a can of worms here. it seems that not everyone has the same TV viewing preferences. In other words "don't mention the war " sorry i mean the olympics.

But seriously if you think a programme is worth watching or recording why not say so.

Well here goes, I think that the Military Tattoo in Edinburgh BBC1 at 1900 hrs will be worth a watch.

I will for a start, Lyd. I used to enjoy my breaks in the UK even more than going abroad (strange me!) They may arrange a pub lunch for us!!

I think more people will be holidaying in Britain at least in the near future.

The pound sterling is not very healthy at the moment.

Good news for the landladies in the B&B's though.

It will make a change from the common murder and mayhem there is so much o f on the TV. Ah, pick and mix. Now don't suppose there would be any raspberry ruffles, used to like those. Anything that's easy on the teeth!

We always watch this Gus. Always say -"we must go there one day" For the last 5 years i have a friend living close to Edinburgh and she keeps saying come up and stay for a couple of days but we never get there. One day! We are trying to do all the things we have talked about now before they become impossible to do for one reason or another.

I never miss the Last Night of the Proms.

I liked the Jordanians they put on a good show and so did every one else.

I am talking about the Tattoo of course.

I can't say I am very fond of bagpipe music although it can be quite stirring.

I have never met a Scot who disliked the pipes.

One told me they were made to annoy the English. I don't believe that but it may have a ring of truth.

I like the pipes but then I do have Scottish blood. German as well.

I live in Edinburgh but was born in england. And I don't like the bagpipes. But my daughter was born in Scotland and she doesn't like them either

I have just noticed that this post has become "popular" Now I obviously know what popular means. But how or when or who decides this?

Is it automatic after a certain number of replies or is it the powers that be that decides.

Answers on a post card please. Sorry but I would like to know.

A programme tonight promises to be interesting . It is a 4 part series about animals and the remarkable things they do.

BBC1 at 20.00 hrs

Re the 'popular' tag, it's automatic. I believe 20 replies and it pops up. Therefore if one adds several replies to ones own post one can appear to be 'popular'.

in reply to peege

One can :) x
