G...20 years ago Auckland did not have much either. Growing up in Manukau in the late 80s and 90s I remember 4Squares, chicken farms, delivered milk, 1cent lollies, comic books, 91FM radio, 88FM radio (before it became MaiFM), I remember recording radio, also long bike rides, board games, VCRs, 1 chinese shop in the city, I remember mid-ctiy cinemas, Farmers big playground in the city.<br /><br />The internet didn't come till 1996 where my family was one of the first to have it. In 2000 the internet and cell phone became more common but was still slow dial up which was offered free by a couple companies circa 2000. HiFi sound and home cinema was new in the early 2000s, DVDs were new.<br /><br />Although most people look down upon the next generation following them most of the new technology and choice was introduced relatively recently.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
