You know those posh orange juice cartons? The ones that live in the fridges in Sainsburys (tall, tropicana and the like?). Well you may have noticed that when you screw the lid off there is a little bit of plastic to pull out of the spout. Once pulled out, this looks rather like a mini satellite dish, attached to a loop, which fits snuggly over a little finger. Once on the finger, it looks like your finger has satellite reception.
So my dad discovered while we were having tea. And, on pondering his gadget-like finger, promptly stated "its like digit-al televsion reception".
I thought that was rather funny, and quite a high tech pun for my daddy.
