I bet a lot of us are wishing these still arrive in the post

I found this in a box of old newsletters.

It's neat that you still have that, Brian. I think i still have a catalog laying around here somewheres. [Smile]

I'd love to still be able to get one of these!

(The very last one: arrived August 26th, 2011)

I have a couple of film lists that I occasionally look through. Still miss jumping on the phone and using the redial function till a familiar voice came on. The euphoria of actually claiming a title is remembered with pleasure to this day.

For us here across the Pond there was roughly a ten day wait between finding we'd bought films and having them in our mailbox.

I always enjoyed the feeling of anticipation, and just when I'd half forgotten it was on the way it was waiting for me when I got home from work.

-a little lesson in patience for an age when they're trying to deliver pizzas with drones!
