Aye Eric them wurt days, we couldn't ged owt by aerial, ours was by wire from radio rentals, an a bloke was supposed to monitor it from a shed up on Rileys Hill, trouble were, the sod would switch id of tu get a last pint at Woodnook, when they put the relay station up in Haslingden we could get a picture from there, went to Relay and towd em to take their brackets and wires off our house, they refused, so got the ladder owt an a crowbar an ripped the lot of and chucked intut middle o road, then rang them and towd em to shift it. All the neighbours had tuned into Haslingden so we didn't need them any more.
