40 year old Sony portable TV. Was working fine until the digital switch over. As well as many other things, I watched the 78 World Cup on it in a bedsit in Seven Dials and I can"t bring myself to throw it away, so it lives under in the cupboard under the stairs.

My ITT Jet Set Transistor Radio, bought by my Mum when I left for Uni in 1969 is still going strong. It's first Albion result was 2-0 v Plymouth, although in those days the results didn't come through until the next morning !

I had a fridge that was made in England. Lec. I wonder now I managed to get rid of it.



I've giot an old radio/amplifier in the loft. Looks horrid even when new. But I kept it because its sound had a very good tone which I never hear nowadays. Seventies.

Forgive me for slightly changing the rules but I was travelling in British Columbia a few years ago and visited a 'western' village called Clinton - they had some kept some buildings as they were in the early 1900's (not difficult, as not much had changed there since). In the main house there were beautiful old light bulbs, working. I asked how old they were, and yep, they had never been changed in over a century...

A Sony Walkman from about 1991, I assume it still works, I haven't got any cassette tapes to try on it.
