I think around 7 or 8ish could be the optimum number.

Ooh, Clare - that's quite a low UPI.
An exceedingly high UPI, however, makes you either a cheapskate or you have the eyes of Steve Austin.

Well one of them was noted for being Stone Cold, the other one had a fantastic bionic eye. I'll let you pick.

To be honest, it's really not as good as the one in the lounge with a UPI of 5.8...a fair bit down on the previous 7.75.

However the bedroom used to be a whopping Jeremy Kyle beating 4.1 until recently! But I don't think that counts as it was a CRT.

HA!
You lot seem pathetic by my standards.
I don't have a telly but a feckin' great big projector and screen that gives a UPI of at least 0.3

Did I say I live in a beach hut?
And wear a necklace?

And sometimes, just sometimes, I only put a factor 30 suncream on my kids in winter.
