Default Re: Humour in the TV trade.

Vectormarts story reminded me of an elderly lady called Margaret, she had a Panasonic VCR and it was always stuck in standby because she'd pressed the timer button.

I'd usually go over (half an hour by car) switch the machine out of timer mode and charge har £40.

On one occasion she phoned me at 5.30am on a sunday morning waking us all up. I did go round later that day, though it did interupt my day with my family, the problem was the same, she paid me £100 and told me to buy my wife a bunch of flowers!
