Sky Digital TV in the house now
I know just what you mean. Our telly broke a few months back - Catherine and I looked at one another for a few quiet moments, and decided not to replace it. Shouts of "No fair!!" were prevalent for a while. But the way both monsters now voraciously consume books has to be seen to be believed - and last night I went to see my daughter and fellows from 4 local schools doing cut-down versions of 4 Shakespeare plays. Now that is re-programming their language! By the way, one of the schools did a wonderfully dark and astringent version of the Scottish play:
"Fair is foul, and foul is fair..."
which reminds me that the complexity of meaning of this word also encompasses a reference to a woman as 'a fair'.
