FIIIINNNNAAAALLLLLYYYYY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 
Dad just phoned Sky and signed up a little while ago, so we now are finally getting it! They’re sending out the viewing card in the post in “about 5 days”, and we’re getting all six mixes plus Sport, and access to Sky HD. So the only thing we’re *not* getting in HD is Sky Movies HD 1 and Sky Movies HD 2. Still, there’s always Sky Box Office. 
So anyway, I can finally put the Sky dish and my Sky HD box to good use.
Yay!
Oooft aye
