Trip down Memory Lane

Time Tunnel Ipoh Old Town, 23 Jalan Panglima, 30000 Ipoh. 

My advise here is to just go and enjoy. You will find many items reminiscence from your past. That is if you were born in the 50's, 60's or even 70's.

If you are not from that era you will be mesmerized to know how simple and different life was back then.Life then was literally then in a different era. However, be advised that readers not from the "simple and humble" era will need guidance to really appreciate the display. 

Ask the Uncle running the museum and he will gladly explain     

Bamboo Colander or Flour Mesh - to strain flour and remove the lumps

Hanging are also umbrella's. Those days the frames were made from bamboo

Dulang kayu biji timah or wooden tray for tin mining. It is not cheap now days. I tried to purchase one from a collector and it easily cost RM150 (minimum) per tray

Stairs back then were not cement and tiles, wooden all the way

It was important to know Japanese to survive during the dark years 1941 - 1945

JIN money. No not the supernatural "JIN" but Japanses Invastion Note

A look across the road from one of the museums window

Old barber's chair

Do you still use Brylcream? I do. Now days there are many brands of hair cream, you will be lost 

Coin banks

Vinyl records

Walkman

Old switch

Now everything is via streaming. This are cassettes

Back to school in wooden desk. I had a feel for them during my early schooling days

Warrior hi-cut shoes. I used them when I was in form 4

Roller skates

Can't read my
Can't read my
No he can't read my poker face
(She's got me like nobody)
Can't read my
Can't read my
No he can't read my poker face
(She is gonna let nobody)
P p p poker face, p p p poker face

Lyrics to Poker face .... Lady Gaga

Well its actually Mahjong

Big man manning the cash register. Pay up or you can never leave

Postman bicycle. Unlike your MTB, BMX or Road bike, this is bloody heavy. How do I know? I have one and it's a conversation piece every time I take it out for a spin 

Post box or letter back. Days of handwritten mail. Emails or whatsapp did not exist back then

A kitchen back then

Kukur kelapa. To scrape coconut

The tin is suspended with a rope, as back then that is how money is drown from the first floor to ground floor    

Old flask

My son attempting to iron. Solid cast iron is heavy
