Hi Paul - Blast from the past eh?  Hope you are doing well, down there in
the big smoke.

I understand that when I unsubscribe, I will be able to retain 5 along with
some other stations, including my favourite radio station Radio 2.
Unfortunately, I don't think that Audio Description will be available, for
example, on the few movies channel 5 broadcast per week.  I may be wrong and
it would be very nice if I was, as I'd really miss the AD.  Without it,
there is just no point in having a TV.

Very best wishes.

In case you still cannot remember, I was the social worker with the blind
for Glasgow when you worked in the Mitchell Library.

Andy
