spiral bound notebooks...I had forgotten how bad they were.


I think slate was just being phased out and I didn't have slide rulers as calculators were becoming cheap enough for children in schools.


Also the cane/whipping stick was still being administered for enough of my early childhood to make an impression before that was also removed from 'curriculum'


last of the Gen X early 80s where analogue and digital was crossover...
I believe were now being called a micro generation 'Xenials' 1977-1983
