Now we are a good 15 years in, I had this thought on the bus this morning. Will there become such a thing as vintage /antique websites? Will there be web archaeologists in years to come whose job is to retrieve quirky historical data reflective of its time?


Just coming across random early sites like this got me all nostalgic:

(I have no idea what this business is or was, and it's reason for existence has become lost in cyberspace)

I quite like the simplicity of those sites compared with the all-action sites these days. It annoys me when I want to read a simple news story, for example, and have to negotiate the various pop-ups, videos, ads, etc that accompany the story.


Time to check out retirement home options I think.

Thats the Borg Fila Setanta 76 trackie top(in Kelly green) of websites. I like it.

    • I don't know how it works now but my late parents had little money when they were retired (just state pension and they rented their flat) and they used to take their cat to the Blue Cross (In Victoria if I remember correctly) where treatment was free for those who could'nt afford a private vet. I sincerely hope similar is available still because for many elderly their pet is their main source of comfort and company.  
    • In a couple of places locally, I have come across this. I am fairly sure that they attempt to do the bill in their head. If you just say , “no, I think it’s x” they start again and get to an agreeable number, or find a calculator. I don’t think it’s a malicious attempt to swindle people. Just not great arithmetic.
    • There are excellent charities like the Greenwich Wildlife Network who will help if you report any concerns with local wildlife. Foxes are wonderful creatures who had been forced into our town and cities and are just doing their best to survive, we should take care of them when we can. 
    • Like I thought… prob like that for most of the day.. especially after people had walked their dogs, with friends, relatives  kids…
