So I got the goods from an Ebay auction I won… a Thunderbirds 2086 tape. I paid a whole $10 for this thing completely on faith that it would be something useful. (For those of you who don’t know, TB2086 was a Japanese Animation show brought over to the US and broadcast on cable TV in the early 80’s) Not only is it not a PAL tape (which means I can actually watch it on my VCR) it’s two episodes that I haven’t seen yet! Keep in mind I’ve seen almost all of the episodes (there’s now just one I will haven’t have seen after I watch this tape tonight)… and I used to have them all on tape until I lost one of the two tapes!
So now I’m down to six episodes… 4 recorded from tv, and the two I have now.
Dammit, if only I hadn’t left that tape back at the old house… my housemates probably have recorded over it by now…
