weaselettMy weird sunday (off sat, in sun, off mon tues - seriously rota) and am amused to come home to all the 'asda's card mchines went down and they had to do carbon paper'
I am supposed to be too young to remember such things, but I am rural, so I used them in my first jobs (and the time blackpool superdrug machines went down and we used carbon and I was the one under thirty showing people how to use the evil hand eaters was fun). We have one floating around work, but like, none of the paper so it's pretty useless (maybe should deposit it in boss's office and suggest it go into the collection (or a memory box...))
It's a hundred years today (well ish, given it not an exact date) since we started putting the clocks back on the last sunday in October (it's a part of our Somme exhibition so there's a massive pocket watch not!boss found up on the wall).
