The rain was falling. I heard a knock at the front door. Knock. Knock. Knock. I opened the door. Behold, it was a man dressed in a Foxtel jacket.
FOXTEL MAN: Good evening Sir.
ME: G’day… sorry we don’t have a TV
FM: You what? You don’t have a TV? Are you serious?
ME: Yes.
FM: Why is that?
ME: We don’t want one.
FM: [laughing] Then I guess you won’t be wanting extra channels!
ME: [also laughing] That’s right. Have a good night!
That was 2 days ago. It would have been good if I’d said some of the reasons why we’re too busy for a TV… could have lead onto a gospel conversation.
