Tip 4:
Forget tips one to three. Instead book a four week holiday beginning in the next few days. Ensure your accommodation has either no TV (preferable) or one which is under your sole control. Either eat in or choose eateries with no TV (there are some - where I'm going next week has plenty). Return home at the end of this ridiculous nonsense completely refreshed, none the poorer for having been excused one of the most over-hyped feasts of "entertainment", second only to the Olympic Games. Job Done !!!
