"And Here is the News..."

SABC 3

We have watched SABC channel 3 news 7- 7:30pm for many years.

The station decided to change and do a one hour news - from 6:30 - 7:30...
That didn't suit us so we switched to etv channel news 7 - 7:30 - we were
happy watchers after getting used to the different style of news coverage.

Dismay a couple of weeks/months ago!  etv news moved to 8:30!
That doesn't suit us at all!

We took another look at SABC 3 news to discover they
now do a normal tv news from 6:30 - 7pm, and then switch to a
DSTV channel for the next half hour of news.

Promising we thought...
Could we re-arrange our supper time to 6pm, or 7pm -
before or after the news?
Or do we just give up and dispense with watching the news?

At last we sorted out our dilemma -
We record the 6:30 to 7 news on SABC3 and watch it at 7pm - the time that suits us!
Relief... We slip back into our new comfort zone of finding out a little of what
is going on in the world.

Enough change, and news, is enough... and truly, too much is too much!
