    I'd say that's good. If you didn't impress you'd have been ditched yesterday, so you've made it to the next round

      I always thought that the delayed reply was because they were taking the cowards option of sending you a letter of rejection in the post.

          Lie with passion and be forever damned...

            Wife goes out. I turn on the telly, get presented with a warning that her recordings of both X Factor and Dancing with the Stars are clashing and I'd have to watch one of them or nothing at all or face the grief that would come with cancelling one.

              Cancel both, you know it's your duty to keep that filth out of your house.

                Save her from a life of banality!

                  Come on, man. Tell her the box went funny or something. You could use words like firmware and hard drive to help sell your case.

                  I do that at home all the time and no one's any the wiser.

                    I don't know guys. I really want to avoid a confrontation about the godawful shows.

                    Thinking I have no choice but to torch the house.

                      I can't argue with your logical approach.

                        I can. Just have an argument about telly being crap. Better yet, queue up a bunch of Charlie Brooker Screenwipe and keep it paused about 30 secs in, wait till she gets back and unpause it. It'll look like she's stumbled upon you watching it and by the end of the first episode she'll begin to see telly for what it really is.

                          Several weeks back I caught the first couple of episodes of Trollied on Sky via the SkyPlayer on 360 (they were baaaaad).

                          Was watching some stuff on SkyPlayer tonight, An Idiot Abroad and whatnot, bump into Trollied again (ep. 5 & 6) and - on a whim - decide to see if the later eps are still as bad and THEN discover that there's a ?1 fee to 'rent' it, now(!)

                          Beggars even the beggar's belief. Who would pay to watch this, I mean who even KNOWS about it??

                          Don't know why, do know why, maybe know why, but it's got me proper narked-off.

                            I seem to have spent the last 6 weeks in various stages of fooked-ness.

                            First I had a prolapsed disc in my back, which meant I could barely stand; then when that started to fix up, something got tweaked again. This time round it's a rotation of the lower spine and swollen discs - I can stand and walk, but it knacks to lie down and sit.

                            By Thursday that was starting to get better, but something went again and the pain is back.

                            Friday afternoon, my neck and right shoulder started to seize up and I couldn't turn my head. That's getting better, but only slowly. Coupled with that I've got a rotten cold.

                            Next Sunday I'm meant to be off down to Norwich for the beer festival. It's like my body is determined to throw obstacles in front of this aim. But the bast won't win - even if Plough boy has to drag me into the beer hall, I'll be there.

                              Back probs are the most soul destroying imo. Had constant probs with mine since I crushed a disc in my back over 2 yrs ago. Loss of feeling in my thighs when sitting down or sleeping, pain shooting down my right leg to my foot, even chest pain from sleeping on my side while trying to find a decent postion to sleep. Its a bummer.

                              You could rent out a wheelchair for the beer fest?
