My TV stopped working. Strangely, the world didn’t stop turning.
I realised I was in trouble when I rang up the repair people and they put me through to a “special department” after I told them my TV didn’t have a plasma or LCD screen.
“You have a cathode ray tube set?” I was asked in the strange tone I hear when I tell people I don’t own a car.
“Yeah, I live in a tower block,” I told them. I’ve found that people accept, “I live in a tower block” as an explanation for just about anything.
