Smells Like The 80s - Originally posted to LiveJournal

In a fit of getting my shit together, this evening I started to clear out the mess that is my un-used wardrobe, since it’s full of junk.

I managed to whittle down the boxes to four from 10 and a few clothes that I probably need to chuck along with a lot of carrier bags.

However, I did hit one of my game boxes, and boy does it smell special. It’s my tapes and amiga disks, genuinely they have a special smell of the past, it’s amazing to get my hands on these things that were well used back in the day, like a modern artifact.

When I was a kid, I didn’t have a tape drive, we only had a disk drive, so I missed somewhat out on this occasion.

The box art is an art of it’s own

But as I start to get everything in order now, I really look forward to getting this working and getting to try them all out.

My second box is going to be tomorrow, followed by re-arranging the shelving and my games desk below the télé.
