Azagtoh : I love your avatar !!!
I was born in 71, I can relate to most of what SM said. Even if I was raised in Fance and in a French Caribbean island : Martinique !
In our neighbourhood we were never watching tv, because we were outside playing football(soccer) , tennis, riding bikes,...
Although we had satellite tv to watch US tv channels, the first pc (oric1, olivetti M24, amstrad,zx80-81, ...) in our residence, we were out until our parents got home !
the good old days !
