If it makes you feel better, I didn't think you were wise to begin with! Laugh | :laugh:

Pretty much. We'll be around, but there could be egg-nog involved.

Things could be a little messy this week.

I'm hazarding a guess that it's to do with a TV show called "Strictly Come Dancing" which I understand had it's final in the UK last night, and that he disagrees with the result.

If you aren't familiar with the show - and neither am I - it's a dancing competition for washed-up Z list "celebrities" broadcast in the Saturday night "Prime-time" slot. And probably sponsored by the brewing and distilling companies to drive people out of their homes rather than have to watch it. Wink | ;)

Ah, that explains Pompeys comment as well.

I understand we have something similar over here. Luckily the only TV I'm watching is cartoons with the kids, and an odd movie every now and then from Netflix.
Which I watch alone since I don't watch anything together with my wife. She only watches RomComs or political talkshows. Dead | X|

If you aren't familiar with it then you won't know that it has the biggest audience for any TV show in Britain all year and is amongst the most successful franchises ever with a version showing in over 40 countries. As a BBC show, of course, it has no sponsors!
