I read every word on the box, and examine every picture. Then I undo the plastic packaging and open the box. I lay out the contents on my bed and admire them, wondering all the while why they needed such a big box for such small items. I read all the little leaflets. (You see I am into game-foreplay to heighten the final thrill..)
Then I read the manual from cover to cover and make little notes, crosses and underlinings of bit that look useful.
Finally, I switch on the machine (in the unlikely event it is off) and slip the disc into the slot...
My life for the next few weeks is committed to my new love...
