Tell us more....
When I was a young child, and feels like 2,000 yrs ago, my uncle ran a vhs rental shop in Woking. I would come home from school and then get on my BMX bike down to high street to work in the shop. Though I was paid pocket money, but I loved being in that shop, and watching what tapes got rented out constantly throughout the years that proceeded. My love of VHS started, and then the advent ebay changed all that in 1995. Most of my tapes came from the shop my uncle had, though in the later years I started buying up tapes from rental shops for very little money. My luv for VHS started right there in that shop. We use to have a Chinese takeaway just two shops away. Use to buy a takeaway and sit watching the latest releases like Evil Dead, C.H.U.D., Spies Like Us, Pale Rider, The Goonies etc....

Miss it!
