Aw MG...thats kinda anti-xmassy! But funny ;)

I took my first step for Xmas preparation yesterday. I b*ght the Xmas double editions of Radio Times and TV TImes! I sat on the sofa last night and circled all the stuff I want to watch. Its not as special as it used to be in the 80s when we had no SKY, Tivo, DVDs, Blu Rays, and even VHS. Still, there are Xmas edition tv programs to look out for and despite the fact that I have Wizard of Oz on Blu Ray, I still cant help be excited by the fact its on Boxing Day. It was a film that always came on TV for Xmas and then suddenly vanished in the last decade. But now its back and I am just happy to see that its on TV for the newer generation to discover and probably find it boring :)
My film reviews here . ......My FMUK 2014 ratings.......My FMUK 2011 ratings.......My FMUK 2013 ratings . ......My FMUK 2012 ratings .


Do you have a VR headset? If so, maybe we can play a physical sports game or even be sports/fitness partners, hit me up if you keen.
