Just a few of the classic titles I've collected over the years. I haven't had the heart to throw them out and there's no where to sell them any more. I have hoarded a big plastic box full of them and a video player which have been sitting in the garage for about 4 years. So when I saw a request on Wellington Re-cycle for a video/videos I was really happy. Finally a place for them to go to where they'll be used!
A fabulous lady called cynthia came around yesterday. I had just watched my favourite TED video (see previous post) and was in a great mood when she arrived. She wanted them for her son, aged 9, and I couldn't be happier. I had to go through them a bit to make sure I had all the home videos myself (no euphamism!) and point out the potentially above-aged-9-rated tapes. She was such a lovely lady - american/canadian accent and 5 kids!
I had a big smile on my face when she later sent me a text:
'Thanks again cd. My son was happy and laughing watching Red Dwarf. He said it was one of his favourites. I heard him exclaiming, oh man! I cant believe i got all these red dwarfs!'
I can just imagine him bouncing up and down as he says it, eyes wide. :D Enjoy little guy!
