This evening I returned home with my hands rubbing together. You must understand this first, we were awaiting delivery of a new High Defintion television today. We ordered the TV roughly 6 weeks ago and were told that there were would be a bit of a wait for the delivery. Who would have imagined that "a bit of a wait" was more than a few days? I was annoyed, but the day of reckoning had finally arrived, hence why I was rubbing my hands together.
When I arrived home I made a darting rendez-vous to the lounge, expecting to see a monstrosity of glass and plastic welcoming me home. Instead I was greeted with the same TV that had been there for the last 3 years. I was inconsolable. I ate my dinner of Fish N Chips and retired to my bedroom to bask in the warm glow of "Prison Break". After an episode and a half of this glorious show, a call came through on the telephone. It was the TV delivery men. They were on their way to deliver our new TV. I was happy, but a little bit annoyed that they had left it so late in the day, 8:30pm. Still, I was now consolable.
All this means that the old TV has migrated to my Xbox 360 room. It really is the heaviest TV in the world, no word of a lie. The TV guys struggled with it, but rather them than me. That's their recompense for taking all day to deliver our new box.
Once the people had finished I rushed in to the front room and was confronted with the biggest damn telly I have ever seen. It really is a sight to behold, which is why I have included pictures. Here is the TV in all it's glory:
In order to convey the sheer size of the monster, I have opted to use myself as a ruler. Please note, I am 6 feet and 1 inch tall. You do the math. This is the heightways glance:
And now you'll get the widthways glimpse:
And not to forget the old TV, which has found a new lease of life serving my Xbox 360 in "The Top Room". This is so-called because it is a room at the top of the house. Well sensical:
And that is the tour complete. Now you can look forward to an epilepsy inducing GIF file of my brother.
Very //very// jealous. I demand you buy //me// one this instant.
