I remember those days LOL

I remember sitting and patiently removing tape from the machine and then, slowly and carefully, rewinding it so that it could be used again. It didn’t always work, and I wasn’t a child!

You do realize that the picture you are looking at is a VHS video tape right?

At 86 years old there is no way I would want to swap my wonderful childhood for today, we had so much more freedom then.

I am 94 and the kids now days do not know how we enjoyed making up our own enjoyment I remember how we used to play in the street together and at 7o/c we would rush home because Dick Barton special agent was on the radio and when the snow came we would get our home made sledges and find the nearest Hill and make big balls of snow until we could not roll them any further, we had some woods close by with a stream running through it so we had the enjorment of catching tadpoles, I could go on and on about things.

Remember Dick Barton very well, and Paul Temple, Mrs Dales's Diary and Family Favourites on Sunday morning with the British overseas forces stationed in Munchengladbach et al. playing requests. Carefree days

the dispair when you couldn't rewind the tape back on. Also the music cassettes being chewed up by the car stereo. Woeful days.
