I'd want to know where the life rafts are too.
ReplyDeleteWe do have an older, much older, style telephone stored away in a cupboard.
I do have an older phone but my computers I get rid of. Too many.
ReplyDeleteWe finally got rid of our rotary phone.
ReplyDeleteNo but vintage phones are great!
ReplyDeleteNot at home, but I think there are some older computers at work.
ReplyDeleteI have a candle stick phone that I really like. It is a decorative part of my family room now.
ReplyDeleteI have a flip phone! Not exactly vintage, but not the latest thing, either!
ReplyDeleteI have an old avocado rotary wall phone still hooked up - I can answer it, but since I now have a digital line I can't use it to call out.
