Once, my friend and I recorded onto a tape.

2:25

Do you remember tapes?

2:26

Of course I remember tapes.

2:28

We recorded our own song onto a tape,

2:30

and we sent it to a recording studio in the hope that they would sign us.

2:35

Is it a good song?

2:37

It's great.

2:38

I think we need to hear it.

What sort of hobbies did you have when you were a child?

So I always liked football and cricket and I played when I was in Canada.

3:04

I played ice hockey.

3:05

That's cool. Can you still ice skate?

3:20

How do you think the world has changed since you were a child?

3:25

The world is really different from when I was a child.

3:29

Because when I was growing up, we didn't have the internet or mobile phones.

3:34

And I think they've made such a difference

3:37

to the way people communicate with each other.
