National VCR Day

Today is National VCR Day.


Do you still own or use a Video Cassette Recorder? I do.

There are still some great and rare films and programmes that can only be seen on video tapes these days, so I'm glad we've still got our TV/Video combination set.

Over the last year or so we've been documenting the remains of Blockbuster Video stores in the UK - visiting 19 of the former video shop locations so far.

We were also lucky to find a video shop still operating and renting out tapes last year! It's in Little Lever, Bolton.
