Like you and @Darragh we had to depend on a large box of photos and our memories. They both gave us a great excuse for laughter over the years. @ChrisD - Now you are aware of the correct conditions to store these precious Video tapes. @Roy - Yep, it sounds like it! @Niamb - Be careful with that memory and store it properly! ;) @Steph - Thanks for the tip about transparencies.

Although at least they're in the same press as the DVD's, Wii games and Wii accessories, rather than in the attic. If we even have an attic here :?
