Good morning from Nottingham

Took a punt on a tested and working VCR off ebay for £15 complete with power lead which seems to something most on their are missing. No remote but my programmable universal remote should resolve that. Also ordered the correct adaptor.

bought a new one this summer. it wasn't cheap. good for you!

Tried to I get my old VCR DVD-RW working with the new TV. Transpired I had ordered the wrong lead. What had turned up today was one to send a hdmi output to a SCART input, precisely the opposite to what was needed. However discovered the DVD would not open, the first VCR inserted would not play and whilst the second did on ejecting the cassette came out but not the tape.Thinks the household waste site will be it's destination after a dismantling for anything reusable. Normally stacks of useful small screws and bolts at least.

so long as they are sorted, eh?

LG AC259I in black. A bit scratched to the rear which hopefully explains the low price compared to others which have rusty cases or for spares only. Should be nothing a tin of black enamel can resolve if necessary once it's in the pile of PVRs.

Nothing for an LG device.

It was sunny when I went for a walk. A big black cloud suddenly appeared and emptied a lot of very cold, almost hail, water on me. Home again and the sun's come out again. I think @postman knows how this feels.
