There are still phone boxes around, but a lot fewer. We didn't even have a phone in the house until I was 18! If I wanted to phone someone I had to go to the phone box.
I still make notes in notebooks and on bits of paper, but my handwriting is terrible.
I bought Bagpuss on DVD a couple of years ago, so much fun. Now I need to find the Clangers. I still love a good Western, I get to watch the High Chapparal, Bonanza, and Alias Smith and Jones on TV at the moment.
I get my CDs off ebay now, there are loads of bargains to be had. I have no idea what to do with my old videotapes. I used to tape my favourite shows off the TV and watch them over and over, but now I'm getting most of them on DVD. It seems like a terrible waste to throw the videos away but I don't know what else to do with them. the pre-recorded ones can go to the charity shops, but the others... I've got hundreds! I don't even have a working VCR now.
