I wonder how much it cost for your post to be made a "sticky"?

I love those sort of article

Spend hours sometimes going through that stuff

They thought they had answers for everything nad were not afraid to give it a go.

Seems odd by our standards, but in those days it was unlikley you could telephone as even if they did have one they were out and about.

Local radio does a similar thing now where they broadcast sudden changes in situations, some quite personal so in it's day it may well have had limited use.

Can't imagine what we'd use a home computer for :think:



Garry

Hmm.. well, I don't think we use our computers for planning the dinner menu.. not our own anyway

Pity they're not still that size now.. I wouldn't have room for 5!

Mmm, I wonder how anyone would know they had a message posted on "The Notificator"? Did they send a telegram saying the 1930's equivalent of "You've got mail"?

...and how about this handy gardening tool!

Borrowed if from my Dad's work

Did a grand job :fart:
