Did anyone use to have one of those Dymo(?) plastic tape labellers years ago?

I had one, used to be good for doing labels for the sides of your cassette tape boxes lol.

Changing the subject slightly from labels to cassettes.. I found a really old cassette whilst I was clearing out. I put it on and starting singing along loudly, enjoying the blast from the past.

After a few songs, it stopped. I remarked to OH that I thought there were more songs that that on it. He remarked back that I'm an idiot and I needed to turn the cassette over to hear the songs on the other side. :rotfl: I'd completely forgotten, guess I'm too used to cd's now.

Well I've ordered this.....http://www.brother.co.uk/g3v1/g3.cfm/s_page/215760/s_level/223400/s_product/PT2730VPZU1



Only I got it from Printerbase who were selling it for £76 with free next day delivery. Brother have a promo on until the end of Sep and there's £50 cashback so it will only have cost me £26 which I think is good considering some of the handheld ones are this kinda cost. It has good reviews all over the net.

Daughter often needs labels for school stuff, OH for work stuff and me for anything that stands still so I think it will be well used.

I have all my boxes lined up and waiting. < Me.

I have a lesser version, and I do like it.

What's ironic is that the wastage on the tape, which they probably figure makes them more money, is what stops me from using it a lot more and plastering it all over the house, which would have me buying reams of the tape!
