In 1979, my parents (a nurse and a car factory worker) allowed themselves a rare indulgence and bought a very expensive (£389.99) National Panasonic SG-5070 music centre.
For context, £389 was twice what they paid for their car and 10% of what they paid for their house!
It replaced the TV as their focus and music became their 'thing' at weekends and whenever shift patterns allowed.
It's taken me a decade to build this from many broken donors, but today it's finished.
I could cry right now.
