That VHS tape era, was a period of time in wich i lived with just my father, after my parents divorced and my sister moved with my mother.
As board secretary he had weekly late meetings on monday and tuesday, and i was only 11 at the time when that started, so i couldnt stay home alone.
So i stayed at my aunt those two days, who had a convenience store, wich was open rather late. I had to stay there till around 23h, while she cleaned up the store and did the books/accounting whatever its called, and my uncle went to sleep rather early cause he had to be up very early to go to the fresh market (i think its called) on tuesday, or general store delivery on wednesday.
So i was pretty much alone, watching two games usually, my uncle had a huge library of recorded games from platini, (he's french).
Just me and my father getting by, untill he met someone new 3 years later. Lots of memories.
Since he passed away almost two years ago, i prefer not to talk about that period alot.
