As with John in Holland we here in Belgium get many foreign channels on the cable, one of them is the BBC.
The mornings are about the only time I watch the telly, while my old body is ajusting to the force of gravity. I zap (flip) through all the (bad) news stations around the world (there's not one channel that has only 'good' news) and end up with 'Breakfast TV on BBC. What a rotten program that is, how did they get any awards? All you hear is "COMING UP LATER ON IN THE PROGRAM" with a clip of it, if they cut all that out they could deliver the news in 10 minuets flat, as they do on NOS in Holland. The only thing that I find useful are the radar pictures of the rain clouds coming our way (or not).
