I still have family videos that I like to view from time to time and show to the younger generation.
Unfortunately, pretty pricey to convert them all to DVD.
So, if there is anyone who needs to clear out a bit of old technology, I would be very appreciative.
Thank you.
I may be contacted on landline 04 212 7858 or via Neighbourly.
