Here at the FauxSurrey homestead we have a number of questionably useful gadgets (like most households; such as a deep fat fryer, a veg steamer, a mushroom brush, a hand held vacuum etc) but one of the 'gadgets' I rolled my eyes at when it was purchased came into its own this weekend.
FauxSurreyHubby decided when we bought our new TV not so long ago that not only did we need HD, 3D would also be good. 3D? Why? There have been a whopping total of TWO 3D broadcasts since we bought it (The Queen's Christmas Speech & Mr Stink I think) but this weekend the BBC in their wisdom decided to show the Wimbledon finals in glorious 3D. WOW!! FSHubby & the teens & I ducked as the ball came lobbing towards us; we flinched as a racquet looked like it would take our eye out; we gasped at the hawk eye wrong calls; we marvelled at the amazing clarity & depth of focus & we screeched & whooped & yelled when a 3D Andy Murray finally held the trophy aloft after beating Djokovic in 3 straight (but not easy!) sets, the first Brit to win Wimbledon in 77 years! HURRAH! A real 3D delight.
