Old technology

20100310 @105, more than a month ago

So we caught a ride to a family do from Suzanne’s brother who lives around the corner. He drives a crew cab Toyota ute. I rode shotgun, and the kids ride in the back with Suzanne. Part of the way though our journey, Ashton asks, “What is this? There’s one on the other door too.”

“They, my dear, are window winders. You use them to wind the windows up and down.”

“You mean without a button? Using your muscles?”

How quaint that this is the first time my daughter has seen windows which aren’t raised and lowered with a button, but manually.
