Old stuff I still knowOur Ginger Fuhrer says that he could still code up a simple game idea in Amstrad Basic, while I'm your man if you ever need to rebuild the suspension on an Austin Allegro (1750 Equipe version). This stuff doesn't leave your mind - tell us about obsolete talents you still have.

"First Blood" on VHSMy local video shop rented this to my dad in the days before computerised logging of rentals, when everything anyone took out was written up in a book. In this case, a blue exercise book.
I think someone must have spilled coffee or something on one page because I've still got the damned thing. In it's "luxury" rental box (one of the early ones designed to look like a book would if it were made from tatty dark red PVC).
I dread to think what the late fee would be; the only things saving me from remortgaging my house are:
1. the shop is now a chippy
2. they lost all record of the rental
3. I've moved house about six times since
4. I couldn't give a toss
