Orange and Green

I can't for the life of me remember whether I've already written about this... but I suppose it doesn't matter: if I have, you can always ignore it.
I borrowed a colour TV off Yvonne and Ghassam downstairs (they had a naughty dog called Toby; Yvonne used to ask it 'Do you want a smack?'. And what do you think it replied?).
It was orange and green, no other colours, but I got used to it and used to watch the football mostly, which always looked good in those colours. The problem was that it gave off large electric shocks if you touched it, and I took to turning it on and off with a broom pole. Imagine my joy when I discovered that I could lie in bed and just stretch over to change channels with the pole without crossing the room! When we are all much greener (if not orange too), just remember this useful tip. You will no longer need to use a battery-guzzling remote control for your TV.
Another thing is that Joby fixed an old-fashioned black telephone receiver to his TV to listen to the sound on, didn't you, Joby?
