We were somewhere around Barstow, on the edge of the desert, when the
drugs began to take hold. I remember "the_constructor"
saying something like:

Hi, Having picked up a fully working VHS video recorder for a couple of quid
from a jumble sale, I am in need of a remote for it.
Unit is a Sanyo VHR 291e
Would anyone know what the reference number for the remote please or where I
could find the information ?

Have a look at the CPC/Farnell website, you might be lucky. Failing
that, a good universal remote might do all the functions you need.
