Any VHS users left out there?

As part of the ongoing struggle against clutter, I'm doing a bit of technology reorganisation and decommissioning. During that I discovered that the remote for my old VCR machine doesn't work. The box still plays tapes but I have actually get up to stop & start tapes (shock*horror).

But then, I start thinking about when I last played a VHS tape - it may have been years ago. Even still possessing a VCR and having it plugged in makes me rather anachronistic. Most people I know don't have one any longer or if they do, it is sitting unused in a cupboard somewhere.

But then again, I know full well that for every obsolete technology there are fans out there. Either it fits their needs and so they see no reason to change, or they relish their "good old days" stance and are happy to bore those around them with it at every opportunity.

The reason I have kept my tape player is that I have a bunch of commercial tapes I want to keep the ability to play. I got rid of all the home recorded stuff years ago, but I have about 35 bought tapes left. Tapes that I never actually watch. So does anybody out there want them? Anybody who still adheres to the VHS way (and is local enough to come collect them) is welcome to them. If you know me, you can probably guess what the subject matter is like.
