Only wished they would turn down the d a m n sound, especially HN & NR, who demands the decible rating on ads ?.

The yanks were supposed to be passing a bill on broadcast decible rating to co-incide with normal talk volumne, probabley got tossed out.

1250831 2011-12-28 23:36:00 Budget Tyres and Noel Leaming ads must be made by the same company too. I have worn the mute button out on the remote. I wonder how many others feel the same about these ads. So loud and obtrusive. There are some other which I cant recall the company but they use a young screeching woman who sounds like she is laughing with joy at what she is selling. I pity the poor husband if she has one if she screechs like that at home.
As for the volume I am sure they are cranking it up again now that a reasonably time has past since the last run of complaints that forced them to reduce it because at my age there is no way my hearing is improving.

1250833 2011-12-29 00:31:00 I'm happy i don't watch tv anymore, apart from Crime Investigation Network, which is very good.

You kidding me aren't you?? There's enough crime on the nitely news for everyones tastes..
Why would you want to watch a channel dedicated to the depressing subject of crime and violence??
