    I know too. But I'm going to guess that there's a lot of people on here who don't.

    It was the shape that made all the difference, pencils weren't ever as good.

    If you know that, you'll also know why sellotape was useful too...

    I think I know. My dad used to have hundreds of tapes... think he still does... and so did I when I was little, but it's all mp3 now :razz:

    I never understood that, even when you had the hexagonal Staedtler pencils.

    Also sellotape. The fun I had with that :D

    I used to use my little finger instead of a biro as I was little when tapes were around. The sellotape gets tid of all those nasty tapes you bought and allows you to make them decent (I still use cassettes).

    My car still has a tape player! :(

    (and I use my little finger)

    My dads car has one too. You can get special tapes that have a wire you can plug into MP3 players though which is good :D
  • Former MemberFormer Member Posts: 1,876,323 The Mix Honorary Guru
    I still have tapes!

    I've also got an iPod radio transmitter thing. I'm not completely prehistoric ;)

    Awesome ;)

    I saw walkmans on sale at a popular store a while back, then I heard that cassettes are making some kind of comeback - people like the sound from them or something, lol. I don't know. I had a walkman that played everything too fast so it was just slightly below chimpmunk level, and I listened to my Hanson tape on it... extra high prepubesent voices. :heartbeat:

    Maybe the same reason why retro camera apps are so popular. Whilst digital photos have amazing quality, in their raw state there is very little in the way of character.

    Oh, I know what the pen is for as well ;) Although not heard about the link with sellotape.
  • Former MemberFormer Member Posts: 1,876,323 The Mix Honorary Guru
    WE still listen to LPs, never mind cassettes. Much better sound.
  • Former MemberFormer Member Posts: 1,876,323 The Mix Honorary Guru
    I used to wad up a small piece of paper to reuse tapes.
  • Former MemberFormer Member Posts: 1,876,323 The Mix Honorary Guru
    I love LPs
  • Former MemberFormer Member Posts: 1,876,323 The Mix Honorary Guru
    I feel old

    My teenage daughters didnt know what a record (LP) was:rolleyes:
  • Former MemberFormer Member Posts: 1,876,323 The Mix Honorary Guru
