The legislation is woolly, as I understand it. However, one year would be
regarded as a very short "life" for a TV, so it's worth the argument, yes.

Unfortunatly the shop she bought itself has since gone and the makers
(Samsung) don't seem to want to know? ;-(

I have had stuff go wrong within the yeah and even though we couldn't

Maybe had she threatned a 'legal fuss' they might have done somthing
for her .. and she still might ned to but ....

However, I got this from her yesterday after I asked her to do the

"Well, B****r me!

I forgot to do this when I got home last night, but then I woke up at

give it her back, take the kisses and run
