I think it was just a Mini Disk. Ailsa had one of those players for a while, but we never really used it.

Yep think you’re right. Yeah my DJ housemate at the time used them endlessly for about six months and then gave up!

One of my cars has a FM/AM radio cassette player...

Actually, in my lounge I still have a hifi system with separate turntable, amp, tuner, two cassette decks.
