I know but you must admit it all sounded very complicated before you installed it and got used to it...
Dont cost any money to help people, only a few minutes of time....and you seem to have a lot of that to waste on NSC!!
Right up to the moment they refuse to be helped!
As said I did back down from my 'complete and utter asswipe' stance this morning.
Only then to have @Shmuck remind why I was being such a tit in the first place!
The thing with it is I'm about as useful as a shaved monkey with this stuff and I can do it because all that's needed is following whatever YouTube guide explains the process the best for me.
Nobody is splitting any atoms here, yet you'd think we were practicing voodoo or something.

exactly its not rocket science but it might look like that....and of course others are worried because its not totally legit they might find the SAS abseiling from a Chinook through their patio doors!
but its 100% easier than watching or finding a stream and possibly infecting your PC
When I got my 4k Firestick I put a Diggz' build on it.
I had no idea what it was, what the end result would be, but the fella explaining it kept it nice and simple, so I went with it.
When I reloaded, it was as if I had just made fire, in my cave, by rubbing two sticks together.
Jnr was in the garden.
I went running through to him in wide eyed amazement "come and look what I've done, look what I've done".
I then sat back on the sofa and said....
...."Daddies going to jail"

now u can watch.
any sport you want ,
Sky Sports
BT
any series
Movies
US TV
Canadian TV
Spanish TV...etc etc.........get the point?
oh yea Amazon TV
and ifollow to watch any lower league footy.
I couldn't get an Amazon series to load, so I dug under the skin (pun intended) and found a whole level just for Amazon.
The last Joshua fight was on at a normal time.
I said to jnr 'shall we try and watch it'.
He was keen but I had to temper his excitement saying it's PPV and I have no idea how to get it.
In that time I'd found a subsection entitled PPV Sport.
Clicked on it and we watched the fight.
Madness, absolute madness.

All PPV is on there....even WWF which teens seem to like,
You have considerably more patience than me Swindon.
I have lost count how many times we've been through this and yet it's still the same posters coming back over and over again.
I sent out a few PM's this morning.
If they pop up again, in a couple of months time, I doubt I'll have enough room on my naughty step
If you didn't post so much shit on here then people may pay more attention to your posts. Equally, the time it's taken to post your drivel on this thread would have been less if you'd just posted a link to your previous posts.

It wouldn't have mattered.
Remind people to use the search function and the reply is 'search function is shite'.
Short of going round to individual houses plugging the thing in and changing channel it's obvious most posters ask for advise but then refuse to take it on board.

PM sent (I think) clicked back by mistake so either you've got two, or you've got none!

I am only going to use one stick, not plural, just like [MENTION=750]swindonseagull[/MENTION] told me
At least someone has learned something from this thread.
I'm now going to watch some cricket!
Edit - Or not, as the case maybe.
Really sorry to hear that BG, does that mean R would stop going or would he go with someone else?
There are a lot of advantages watching at home, you can get a nice cuppa at half time without a long wait, cant get the TV switched off for having a screw cap on your hip flask, and its so much bloody warmer.
I never thought I would see the day when Will had to give up his season ticket but things change, and were not getting any younger.

He was the one who suggested we didnt go yesterday as I think that he is worried should anything happen. I think that he will be happy if we buy a new Smart TV plus stick etc which would enable him to see every game. He finishes early enough that even for a game like Tuesday he could get to us have dinner watch the match and my wife take him home when it finishes or early morning for work so he would in fact gain from it but it is one of our concerns.

I know I am probably the last person that should ask this but is the Amazon Firestick relatively easy to set up

Yes. Connect it to the TV via HDMI. Power on and enter Amazon account details and wifi code and your off . You will need an Amazon account so if you dont have one create one prior

Thank you I will be in touch as it should be within the next couple of weeks. A decison has to be reached re the ST during February IIRC.

Sorry to hear this BG. Is Seagulls Travel an option for you? I know there is more cost to you as you usually use your bus pass and the free travel but if they pick up very close to your home this should minimise your walking at either end and they would probably let you leave your nebuliser on the coach during matches so you have it with you when you get back after a game. Once you give up your ST then it will be hard to get back again so don't rush into the decision. All the best.

It is a decision that I will make after much consideration and will possibly see how I feel for the Watford game by which time hopefully I will be feeling better generally. If I give it up that will be it for attending matches other than if we got to Europe when wife would drive us there as I have always said I would attend the first wherever.
