As technology has changed so has how I use it. Now I photograph so much to have as a record and I add pics to this blog to put them into context.
Hubby asked if there was any photo evidence of the first time he rebuilt the bathroom and how he'd plumbed in the new shower cubical he had built. Well that would have been sometime in the 1980s! In the days of a limited number of shots on film to be sent off for developing and we had young children which I was obviously more focused on.
Hubby went through lots of printed pics, very full memory sticks and our spare hard drive backup without success, but he quite enjoyed his trip through the years.
It was 40 years ago that we all moved from being neighbours in the small Essex village of Silver End. We are all real friends that keep in touch, go out when we can and we have holidayed a few times with one of the couples. Not often we can get this many together at once and it was lovely. Lunch in a pub, back to N&T's for coffee/tea and we came home with a cake that friendV had baked and gift wrapped.
Yaay we have a working shower again. The nice engineer came and fixed their faulty part and he installed the remote from our broken one into the new one, which Hubby was going to do but this way it doesn't void the guarantees.
Excuse me if I post this quick as I'm off to have another long shower!

People still use film cameras! Geeky camera club type people but it is still a thing. Bit like vcr recorders/players, not just held onto to watch home videos or wedding videos but some people like to have a retro setup and watch films on tape. Just had someone collect my Dad's old vcr player as he has a retro setup in his garage.
love your get togethers with friends.
And huge YAY to working shower :-) :-) :-)
We still own all the old tech. E borrowed our very old cameras when she was at college. We still have working vcr, dvd, blu-ray etc...... however I personally don't use them anymore ;)
