I had an alarm clock from 1998 that i recently found no longer worked.
Now i don't seem to have anything older than a printer i bought in 2007 , though haven't checked that for a while .Everything else seems to be 2012 or later .

My old man has an electrolux tumble drier still in frequent use that was a wedding present. At one time it did three heat settings
but only does very hot now but will get pretty much anything dry in half an hour, the timer still works too. My folks were married in 1959. |

@Facts -- no batteries; it is a Casio fx-451 which has a solar cell. The web says it was from 1985 so it is not, as I'd thought, the one I used for A-levels, but is still 32 years old.
