Ok let's play a game.
I am old enough to remember when...........(you fill in the blank. You can have as many goes as you like coz it's Friday and it's hot)
The only eggs in the carton were white. Occasionally there was a brown one, which got left last because it was scary.
I feel like I'm going to be one of the youngest ones here, but I am old enough to remember when installing things on your computer the window would be full screen and have a blue background.
(I was going to mention dial up, or renting from Video Ezy/Blockbuster, but they're too easy and also my local Blockbuster went out in like 2016 or 2017?)
I remember renting from video shops and if you didn't have your card you couldn't borrow. Then towards the end it was "ah just give us your name and the password and that should do it".
Haha, too good!
