I think I have posted this before but thought it might be an idea to repeat it Just read this thread and substitute Boombox or Walkman whenever it says phone. https://www.classicrotaryphones.com...3edc3a06d39fca9e578794a5e83c75ee&topic=5850.0 I have mentioned my late Fathers toy collection elsewhere. Showing a lack of communication, eight years after he died we received a letter addressed to him from Gloucester Folk Museum https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Folk_of_Gloucester to say that unfortunately it was closing and could he collect the items he had lent them. That was the first we knew about him lending them old toys. From the paperwork they had, some seem to have gone there in the late 1980s. I arranged to go there to collect the toys and found it was a complete car load. It is a shame that I never got to see them all out on display rather than packed (very carefully) into boxes. Amongst the returned items I did find a locomotive that I had been wondering the whereabouts of for about five years after finding the rest of the set in his loft. Finally to add a bit of humour to an otherwise dark subject, someone on the electronics repair forum uses the tagline. "When I am gone I hope my wife doesn't sell things for what I told her I paid for them"
Yes, I have a classic rotary phone Because when I'm gone or not and hopefully when I come back are not that most of this will be well. I don't know. I do know I'll be 65 in October and is that old? And December 6th is my Fate date.
