Time Capsule

The wife of one of my colleagues is about to have a baby and, as a present, we're putting together a time capsule to be opened when the child is 18.

We've thought of loads of 'current' things to put in, like newspapers for the day she's born, a fashion mag, a travel brochure, weather and shipping reports, estate agent house details for a house in her area, a 2007 almanac and a McDonalds menu.

Can anyone think of anything else we could put in?

We thought of a similar thing - one of those 100 Places To Visit Before You Die type books, 'cos most of the places either won't exist or will be hideously touristy.

Obviously pics of the mam and dad, so the kid can have a good laugh in 18 years time. Our sprog found some old ones recently and found it hilarious.

How about a coin set from this year? I have a mint set from the year I was born - it's not worth a huge amount but I love the fact that it has a half penny coin (it reminds me of the half penny sweets that were around when I was a kid).

Also, a world atlas/political map - the country borders are bound to have all changed.

A computer or gadget magazine could provide much hilarity in 18 years time when it's all unbelieveably out of date.
