We used to make cassette tapes for my Aunt & Uncle in Oz.
Some news (from the radio) some chat and some songs.
They used to make Uncle Jimmy cry.

I keep bugging my 19 yo cousin to get her arse in gear so we can have a Skype call.
Her parents don't have the technological wherewithal to do it themselves, but of course they'd be the ones to really benefit. And Mum. Writing this I really must push harder. It would be amazing to see them.

Do they still have them?

In 1993, my friends in Argentina made a tape and sent it over to Australia with one of my lecturers who had gone home (to Argentina) for a holiday. I think that at that stage, some of my friends didn't even have landlines so to hear their voices was magic. I've had that tape transferred onto CD.
