Yep when things weren’t available instantly like they are now. It’s a completely foreign concept to those born this century.

Like dial telephones and trunk calls with the operator putting the call through for you.

Thank goodness record players have come back so we can show them the link to past with vinyl records.

Yep, my daughter loves collecting vinyl. It’s the only music she buys, but she uses Spotify to listen to stuff. Or uses my record player to play the special vinyl ones she does buy. My son is fascinated with how a record can actually produce sound lol! I’ve mentioned the old dial up phones to them as well and how you had to literally sit or stand near the phone because phones weren’t cordless.

Red phone booths are worth a motyza.
It would be great to own one.
Ive got a red payphone like that used to be in milk bars in the 80's, 30 cents. There are 10 & 20 cent ones that are worth more than mine.
Mines worth around $450 but the original red phone booths are worth thousands.

Back in my day there was no such thing as a six man farking soft bench. You'd play reserves before 1st grade. The lucky ones would be called up to firsts. You'd have a quick shower, down a couple of KBs and a durry or 2 and out you went to warm the pine.
