My son's finds it highly amusing when I say " I'm going to the pictures or the Barbers" ....
I've got an old VCR in the loft. I may have to get it out and show them one day.

My father-in-law said to my son the other day "turn the wireless on please" he was very confused, thought he meant his bluetooth ear buds [Big grin.png]
When you are dead, you do not know you are dead. It's only painful & difficult for others. The same applies when you are stupid.
