german tv? Oh THOSE channels! tut tut michael and you a vegan as well! Nope german tv is not the norm here although we do get some dubbed german police shows.
The coverage of the olympics has been something else too (like 4 years ago) - they only seem to be interested in those events in which an italian is competing - so you may find that on occasion the coverage suddenly switches from the track and field to the cross-country rollerskating small bore pistol event. although saying that the italians are doing very well in the medals tables - not quite well enough to justify the screaming hysteria of the commentators, but.. better than the UK anyway! ........ ----- Original Message ----- From: "michael leigh" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Monday, August 23, 2004 8:38 PM Subject: Re: FLUXLIST: watching television > ---We watched some italian tv in the hotel in venice > recently and bemused by the many channels in german??! > Is this common or just a whim of the hotel?
