I got a YouView box and pirate everything else, but the downside of having the ability to watch pretty much anything thats been aired is that I have to decide...... where as on normal telly, you're limited to whats showing. So often I either over-kill something by watching so many at once, or always leave it 'till later until eventually its too late.

I rely quite a bit on subtitling so don't do all this pirate nonsense. For music sometimes.I just missed upgrading my tv package in time for American Horror Story Coven. Waiting for that to be repeated.

Your zinc supplement will probably* reduce the severity and lifespan of your cold.Forget your beecham's stuff and ask your pharmacist for the decent stuff they keep behind the counter.
