Summats not right.
Freeview box went off a wee while ago so I pulled the TV out from the corner to check the connections etc.
It was then I noticed a dried "tide mark" on the back of the TV, threading it's way floor ward from the arial socket.
Upon pulling the arial out my hand was covered in water!!!
This must have been going on for a while judging by the mark left.
Luckily my TV etc is always switched off at the wall when not in use but it still leaves me uneasy - TV, electrickery and water don't mix well I beleive. Once I get a new arial sorted out the TV won't be sitting near the curtains either.
Well, no TV for a few days, will have to go to the pub now to see Germany v England game.
I think I just had a lucky escape...
