Hail, hail, the gang's all here

Paris Marathon Training: Week 6 of 18
Today’s target run: 60 minutes
Today’s completed run: 60 minutes


By this I mean, that all my TV friends are now here. That’s right - THE SATELLITE DISH IS NOW RECEIVING SIGNALS AND ALL INTENDED PROGRAMMING. As I type this blog entry, I am thoroughly enjoying hearing not only the sounds of English language TV programs but a movie from Turner Movie Classics no less. Other offerings include: Fox News (don’t knock it until you can’t get it), BBC 1-4, countless SKY sports channels which will include some NFL football, and a whole slew of UK and US TV programming. There is so much to choose from that it will take me days to figure out all my options…what delicious fun that sounds like.

As for this evening, it is definitely movie night…pizza has been ordered and the channel surfing has begun.

that is very exciting... when we were in BP, it was soooo nice to get satellite after a few months of only having CNN in english.

Sky is great - you'll love some of the shows from the UK - and there's lots of american programming as well.

enjoy!
