Television.
Computer games.
Automatic doors on main line railway carriages.
TV? You're avin a larf aincha?
What would we watch Sir David on?
Maybe we would actually step outside more often, & investigate nature's beauty first hand instead of having it spoon-fed to us.
I think TV, & computer games, have had, overall, a dreadfully corrosive effect upon our lives. It's all too easy.
A survey recently (& we could argue until we are blue in the face as to it's merit or accuracy) suggested that on average, under 15's spend
8 hours per day in front of either TV or a computer. Might be 6 hours, might be 4, or 10. It's a frightening thought whatever.
Little wonder we interact face to face so badly these days.
Capish?
