- War in Iraq and the War in Afghanistan.
- iPods, Literally everyone at my school had one of these whether it was the Nano, Classic or the iPod Touch and now they’re pretty much obsolete.
- 2580 which was the Shazam of the 2000’s :laugh:

Just being careful .. I feel a tad under threat at the moment ..
It’s crazy what we wore back then ..
I had a pair of green ones and a pair of brown ones .. I hate those colours ( for clothes ) these days .
We went through a phase of wearing baggy , parallel trousers as well ( some were two-tone) but I can’t find any decent examples of those online

It has thousands of my favourite songs on. For that reason It's still very useful to me. I ain't throwing that away.
