jam Posted August 7, 2010 Share Posted August 7, 2010 Hey all, Had a discussion with some friends the other day and discovered that I'm the only one who has just one TV in their whole house I hope there are some other freaks out there who have better things to other than watch TV all day Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christian Posted August 7, 2010 Share Posted August 7, 2010 We have a tv in the lounge and a small portable upstairs in the bedroom, which hasn't been switched on for 4 years (it was my old tv when I met OH. He was in shock as it was so small - not a big tv fan). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jess1merlin Posted August 7, 2010 Share Posted August 7, 2010 We only have one but it is a large one Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sadietoo Posted August 7, 2010 Share Posted August 7, 2010 We do have two. One in the sitting room, and one in the kitchen that's linked in to the French satellite so its for educational purposes only....(although quite why re-runs of Jonathan Creek with french subtitles are educational I'm not sure) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sam Palmer Posted August 8, 2010 Share Posted August 8, 2010 We have 3. One in the living room, an old one in our bedroom and ES has ancient one in his room. I tend to watch the bedroom one mostly, although I don't watch that much. The big one in the living room is usually hogged by xbox obsessed teens.

majuka Posted August 8, 2010 Share Posted August 8, 2010 Oh dear we have 4 and there's only 2 of us........... Yes us too! When we moved house my aunty gave us some money, which we bought a small TV for the bedroom, we had a large one in the lounge, one is in the caravan and Dave won a 40 inch one, which then replaced the TV in the bedroom (which is sadly never watched now). It was some years ago that he won the TV and it is quite tempremental so I think soon I will be able to have our little TV back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lesley Posted August 8, 2010 Share Posted August 8, 2010 5 Living room,our bedroom,one each in girls rooms,one in garage for hubby when he is working out there. Don't worry - we have 5 and there are only the two of us! - no either....I like TV Carl wouldn't mind if there were no TVs so they are all mine.....including the remotes One in the lounge. One in the conservatory which is only linked up to the video player so that littlies can watch all the old childrens videos we have. One in the kitchen One in the bedroom which I only have on for Breakfast News while I'm getting ready in the morning. One in the office which I only have on while Carl is out with dogs or animals and not whilst he is working in there. I only watch one at a time so I'm not worried about the number - I record a lot of stuff and watch it at odd times so I still get plenty of other things done.

Seagazer Posted August 8, 2010 Share Posted August 8, 2010 I each in the living room, dining room, kitchen. The dining room one gets used for the wii and xbox mainly. The kids have 1 in their bedroom each, mainly used again for gaming. We have one in our bedroom but I don't think its ever been used. I like watching tv too so am not Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cinnamon Posted August 8, 2010 Share Posted August 8, 2010 .............................I take it they are not teenagers then,Foreveryoung?

LuckyChickenLover- Posted August 8, 2010 Share Posted August 8, 2010 1 for 4 of us, which is why the wii never gets used. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charlottechicken Posted August 8, 2010 Share Posted August 8, 2010 I have three at the moment, soon to be two. An old CRT 19" downstairs, and a new 19" flat screen upstairs to replace my very old portable, which was bought in 1983 and is to be retired as it malfunctions on the point of dangerous Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jam Posted August 8, 2010 Author Share Posted August 8, 2010 we have one and will ever have only one in the house. I wont have them in the bedrooms, I cant stand the idea of my kiddies having a tv in their rooms, I want to see them, not know they are upstairs lol My mums exactly the same. Although if I did have a TV in my room it wouldnt have sky plus so what would be the point of having one! The only trouble with having one TV and sky plus is that we always have a war on who gets to record what: Cycling for my mum, American hotrod for my dad, Wizards of waverly place for my sister and House for me. I always seem to loose My mum is also a fanatic deleterer (if thats a word ) if theres less that 30% memory she deletes everyones things (except her own of course ) whether we've watched it or not!

chuckmum6 Posted August 8, 2010 Share Posted August 8, 2010 We have three, one in each lounge and one in our bedroom. I won't have one in the dining room as I like us to talk and eat not goggle at the telly. My oldest son wants one for Christmas in his room, he will be nearly 12 so I don't mind now. We made a point of waiting until he started Secondary school before he had one in his room, also none of the children have ever asked for one as they just want to play with their lego in their bedrooms - which is just what I want them to do! I don't really understand why children as young as five need tv's in their room - but maybe that is just me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lavenders_Blue Posted August 8, 2010 Share Posted August 8, 2010 Just the one TV in our house... but then it's just me and DH, and there's rarely anything we want to watch anyway Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
