lol! Nah, it's for the cartoons ;-)

I wonder whether mine actually checked once a timed-record has been
programmed, my clock/date changes at various times, whether for a 6pm or
11pm recording. Missed half of the last Xfiles series cos of this :-/
(coincidence...?) I always used to check before setting the video only to
come back and find nothing happened cos the year was now 2027 or something
:-|

Not that it matters anymore, I finally managed to get my money back, nipped
next door and bought a different model. Haven't had a problem since...
