In our Old Box series we go back in time for family and friends. On this picture you can see Filip, we guess at the age of 8, in 1978. This is about 35 years ago. Playing a one eyed cowboy in those days was still acceptable. If an 8 year old boy in 2013 would dress up like that, friends and family would be worried. Don’t forget, in those days we did not have computers, Playstations, Gameboys, Nintendo’s or X-Boxes.
In onze Oude Doos reeks gaan we terug in de tijd voor de familie en vrienden. Op deze foto zie je Filip, we denken op 8 jarige leeftijd in 1978. Dit is ongeveer 35 jaar geleden. De eenogige cowboy spelen was toen nog aanvaardbaar. Als een 8 jarige jongen nu zich zo zou verkleden, zouden vrienden en familie zich ongerust maken. Vergeet niet, in die tijd hadden we nog geen computers, Playstations, Gameboys, Nintendo’s of X-Boxes.

ReplyDeleteHi Filip, I presume you miss the good old days....Those were the days where there is no computer and games console, if today without computer and internet we are like leading a cave men life. LOL
