Times and technology.....

It's funny how times change....

Going back ohhh, a good while, we had a bedroom, the management and me.

As time passed it acquired things.

It always had a clock radio, my old clock radio, from uni, we needed that to get us out of bed on time.

And books, this house has feet and feet of books Probably a 50 foot wall along the building 4 shelves high with more again piled on the top.

Then we got a better set up so at night we could listen to music on the cassette player then the cd player. Boxes of cassettes and racks of CD's. Peaceful us time after the kids had gone to bed.

Then of course we added a telly and next came the video player and the DVD player.

This weekend we had a life laundry event and shipped the lot out.

We each have a laptop, all the music I ever want is stored on one tiny little memory stick (driving the van is not a tidal wave of cassettes sliding round the floor any more either), if it isn't already on the c drive.

Any film I want to watch is there in the DVD drive.

Any telly I want is there on i player.,

We have gone full circle, a room full of clutter is a room with 2 laptops in it.

And of course my clock radio, the same one I had in Uni, coff coff years ago.

Oh and books, lots and lots of books...

Not to mention the sofa, so one of us can sit here writing their blog and the other can read her book in bed in decadence drinking a rather posh little vin rouge.
