My father kicked off majorly during Wimbledon about programmes being cancelled or postponed. With Andy Murray, and Marray in the doubles, I'm not surprised, considering how desperate everyone is for British success. The Tour De France didn't really get that much of a look-in in terms of terrestrial coverage, until the run in to Paris which crowned Bradley Wiggins as the first ever British winner in the 109 year history of the race. Now we are staring the Olympics in the face. I do like watching sport, particularly the more obscure ones that don't get as much coverage, and maybe I don't know so much about. I love swimming, diving, and rhythm gymnastics, which we don't always get to see. I know my father doesn't appreciate changes in programmes or the saturation in prgramming that we are goung to get over the next few weeks. I also know that he's not on his own. It is difficult, nay, almost impossible for please everyone. No matter what the programmers do, someone will complain, and that applies to television in general, not just to sport. In a world where so many suffer; where so many don't even have life's basics, maybe it is time that we all just count our blessings.
