I was both heartened and disheartened this morning when Ray read a piece
out of the DT to me. Apparently, it is officially acknowledged (not just
us moaning to each other!) that while they look great and the vision's
wonderful, flat-screen tvs produce really terrible sound. A lot of
people have resorted to buying a soundbar to improve the clarity. I'm
relieved it's not just us, to be honest. Watching Call The Midwife the
other night, we lost several seconds of dialogue because of the blasted
music and the blurred dialogue. So it's not just the deaf and ageing!
Eh?

Uh! you've think you've got problems? I have a cataract on one eye and
I'm paying for Sky+HD !!
Bill
Oh dear! Can the cataract be dealt with? Friends of ours have had them
done and were astonished at the success. I hope something can be done
about yours, too. We have the minimal Sky account. But when someone makes
a tv that cuts out music soundtrack during speech, I hope someone will
tell us!

I have been assessed, and am now on a waiting list for the op.
Bill
Here in Wales we have much longer waiting lists than you do in England,
it's the way our health service works (Slow), but even so it's much
better than in the old days when the consultants would wait for the
Cataract to "Ripen".
They only operated on mature cataracts and you could be waiting 6 years
or more for your turn, then it was 5 to 7 days in hospital.
There was a time, not so long ago when you could go on line and see the
waiting times for individual consultants at every hospital in Wales, now
with the improved web sites and improved services you can no longer do that.
David at the Drought ridden end of Swansea Bay, 4 days without rain, and
the water holes are drying up, though still some footprints out the
field are half full of water.
