Re: TV licence fee

Do they do your weather? I always think it's a bit odd that they leave Ireland out when they do ours.

No, but Sky news makes an attempt. I always get irritated when the UK weather presenter stands in front of my bit of Ireland so I can never see the weather map!

Then again, the Irish forecasters get it wrong much of the time so I usually just wait and see...

It always makes me laugh, yes we always notice that over here too Twiz, they go through great pains to leave Southern Ireland out, I don’t know why they bother really, the weather on these islands varies little anyway.
As well as receiving the UK stations we have a national station, an all Irish speaking station, plus two other independents.
Our national station have it both ways, they carry a lot of adverts and they get the compulsory licence fee plus the advertising revenue.
