C] | About a year ago, I decided it was time to get a new television. My old one (which was almost an antique) had got damaged when we moved house and I could only get two or three channels clearly. But where was I going to get a new one? I got a bus into town and went straight to the electrical shop. When I got there, however, I got a shock. There were so many to choose from that I got lost inside the shop and I didn’t know which one to get. They had got much more complicated over the years. They had also got bigger, which left me with another problem - how on earth was I going to get it home? |
