Alrighty There People!
Well, I just thought I'd let you know that my wedding anniversary is coming up. Four years ago we got married in a lovely ceremony - our photos along the river Wear in Durham are magnificent - and had a wonderful honeymoon in Paris - it was fantastic.
Our fourth anniversary has come come around quite quickly - time seems to be flying at the moment. We've had a serious illness in the family that resulted in the death of a much loved grandmother - it was expected, but still a massive blow all the same. Her illness and subsequent funeral arrangements have taken up so much of our time of late, that everything else has slipped into the background, as it rightly does at such times.
We've therefore decided that this year, for our anniversary, we're going to keep it simple - we're going to go out for the day, spend time with each other, and enjoy a good meal somewhere special. But we haven't decided where yet...
We've also decided that we'll get ourselves a nice big HDTV
, to replace the 20" Toshiba CRT that we have at the moment - which is no good for the PS3! (Actually, I think that the decision to go HDTV was 90:10 on my part!)
So advice would be appreciated as to which TV to get!? Something with freeview built in, and that will maximise the capabilities of the PlayStation 3 (what an awesome and unexpected present that was from my wife!)
Now, I know that there will be loads of suggestions, but that's fine, I want to be able to compare a few models. If you've got one and can give personal experience, even better!
Anyway, apologies to those that were reading this thread and thinking, "Aw, how sweet!", and who are now thinkging, "How can something that started out romantic and touching have so quickly and unexpectedly turned into a thread about technological toys!?"
But, as mentioned, recommendations appreciated.
Thanks for reading!
Oh, and if you want to donate to the aforementioned TV, you can do so here....
