For those of you who may be wandering where that digital tv page has gone ?

and believe that only the best will do and we also want to be sure that all our pages are 'tat' free. If something we sold, linked to or recomended was or is 'useless tat' then please do tell us so we can have it removed. Alternatively, if something was absolutely brilliant then tell us that too, the quickest way to tell us is via our forum and guestbook page (We never spam people or inundate their inboxes with ads ...even so, if you don't want to reveal your email just make something up like 'bighairygorrila@hairyland') you can also use the slip on our contact page or our other listed email addresses.
