Life Was So Much Simpler In Pre-video Days When Everyone Refused Invitations Because The 'forsyte Saga' Was On. Now We All Just Have A Long List Of Unwatched Shows, All Of Which, It Seems, Our Friends Are Raving About. I Feel As Outdated As If I Wore A Fair Isle Sweater, Ate Pot Noodle And Had A Two-bar Electric Fire In The Sitting Room.
