We had this discussion at the Spring Lace Day on Saturday. We were
discussing setting up a website for the group, and we're all very
pleased about this prospect. Someone spoke up and said how amazing it
was to see how far we had evolved in communication - just since the
group was founded 20-some years ago! The first newsletters were
typewritten on a special matrix and then run off on a machine where the
ink oozed through the little holes made by the typepwriter! If I
remember correctly, it was called a Mimeograph machine. Not pretty, but
effective!

On BBC2 this evening at 7 pm, there's a repeat of 'Electric Dreams',
where a family have their house decorated and rigged out with the
technology of the 1970s for a week - even their car. Tomorrow at the
same time they experience the 1980s and on Friday, the 1990s ending
with a millennium party.
Brought back a lot of memories, and it's amazing how things have
changed, even from 2000.
