Wow, freecycle is amazing! I have managed to remove from my house so far, about 300 new scientists, a large box of model railway track and a concrete mixer. I am waiting for collections for some sheet music and a BMX.

Now as I have spent a reasonable percentage of the last 2 months watching day time TV, I have developed some confusion regarding ABC1 on freeview (channel 15). This is on through out the day showing a variety of american sitcoms and occassionally some more serious ones. Throughout the day the channel advertises programmes that are on at about 9pm. However, the channel goes off air at 6pm with no evening programmes. I am sooooo confused. Any ideas?

ABC1 cuts off at 6pm because you are watching it on freview- there's only so much space on the transmitters for channels that some double up- notice you don't see CBeebies at the same time as BBC4

So that is why we lost the fantastic daytime programming of BBC knowledge when the cbeebies channel arrived. Thanks Simon, I understand now :-)
