Hi All
My childrens TV blew up on Saturday. I need to replace it asap, I was thinking of getting a TV VCR DVD combi, have seen these before but can't find any at the moment!
Got a smallish budget up to about £120.00
Thanks in advance

why not spend it on books instead? Children don't "need" tvs in their bedrooms

amandada - Thanks for pointing out the pitfalls of being a new age parent. What must I be thinking putting them infront of a telly all day, thats me off to the libary tomorrow!!!
deanos - Thanks for not judging, the TV is actually for the dinnig room, which we all use, but more often than not the kids take control of!!
Thanks again, Whizzyg1230 -
I have the Bush 3 in 1 (in my bedroom) and its great. We have so many videos that I don't want to get rid of, so they still get watched.

Who mentioned new age?
I made an assumtion which turned out to be wrong, and I'm big enough to stand up, admit it and apologise. Generally when people speak about "kids' tvs" they are referring to them being in a child's bedroom. I made that assumption, for which I apologise.
Now, about this "new age parenting" thing, can you enlarge upon what you meant? I'll be knitting myself some new lentil sandals as I await your reply0 -

Hi.
Sorry to be a party pooper, but becareful getting a 3 in 1, I was advised by a friend who is a mgr at a very well known electrical store, that they can be a problem, as if the dvd breaks down, the whole unit is useless as the dvd is the master and takes over it all.
Be worthgetting a tv, then a dvd seperately, you can pick them up really cheap for £20.00
xxx rip dad... we had our ups and downs but we’re always be family xx0
