I wish we were going away too, but the old dog took all our Christmas going away money, and now OH has flu is has taken time off work for the first time in years, without pay of course. What else can be thrown at us?

Hope you reminded Nancy that she is lucky being a woman and man flu is always worse.
For those wanting a greater amount of televisual entertainment over Christmas below is a bump for XBMC.
The Great Escape, Around The world In 80 Days, A Christmas Carol even Home Alone if that is what floats your seasonal boat.

There is something else I've been using for several months but didn't say anything about it in case it caused computer problems, also I was unsure of the legal aspects. XBMC and Navi-X. I'm still not sure I'm using this in the best way but it can provide an immense number of films and TV shows.
See if you pick it up quicker than me and avoid the dead links and manage successful searches. Read

Then add "Fusion" [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]
From there you are looking at "Addons" see [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.] in particular two addons that are prolific source providers are watchseries.eu and Bstrdsmkr’s Repository | 1Channel Plugin.
The above two are far more effective than navi-x at providing reliable links but bad links do occur and a retry on the same source may work.

Not nice, it's a strong bunch of germs this time round. Hes still off, and now also lost this years full attendance bonus, he was due to get that with this months pay.
Who wants an old dog? and has a spare Christmas dinner going?

Aww poor you. Is that real flu or man-flu. If its the former he gets my sympathy, if the latter you get it

We've sorted through our dvd collection and pulled out some we haven't seen for a long time and also bought a few more 3D films to watch over the holidays. 
We cheated though and watched one early .... mysterious island, really enjoyed it and the effects we're very good.

Always thought that the ending of Total Recall where they are gasping for breath should have seen Arnold Schwarzenegger wake up out of a dream.

No I'm wrong they had already done a hash job.
