I’m quite fond of mine as well 😀
I’m quite fond of mine as well 😀
😂😂 brilliant 😂😂 and whatever 😜
To me it’s ’oh no not another one to find room for’ model 😂😂
Damn hadn’t thought of that 🤦🏻♂️ Right, need to make room in the window haha
Now that’s not a bad idea at all, although I did like on the wall next to MEGGAABENNCHH as well
I couldn’t agree more
Very much looking forward to building the new PiDP-1 Rack kit that’s just arrived 😍 @oscar-ceds.bsky.social
Shakes fist at Taylor lol
Fantastic 😀👍🏻
I freaking love it 😍
I know right 😂😂
Oh god don’t let @loudscotsbloke.bsky.social hear this haha
It looks a lot bigger than I was expecting
Brilliant 😂
😂😂😂
Tough choice, new version of the Sinclair or times your ram wobble issues by a million 😂
Did someone say ultimate ZX81 or bonkers OTT ZX81?? 😂
MEGGGAAABENNNCCCHHH
Haha maybe it was made for use in a factory for Tesla coils 😂😂
So all that weight was mostly the shielding??
Omg I knew it!!!! 😂😂😂
A truly wonderful place to visit and staff and volunteers aren’t bad either 😎
Oh you absolute legend, I was so close to giving up then I saw this 😂😂👍🏻
Being a bit lazy today but I really need to sort through this box of boards
Amazing 😍
I thought the same regarding the space but yeah the creation side is definitely a nice touch
I went there a couple of weeks ago and then on to the Derby computer museum………what did you guys think?
Just look at how the original owner repurposed a calculator as a better keypad and display in one 😍
Yeah the old style ones where it was just the leg and no plastic 😀
You can’t beat an MK-14 for a wonderful piece of history. I’m really looking forward to getting this one working again 😍
I was going to say they are cheap online or free in the RetroFest goodie bags we did haha
100% 😂👍🏻
What about the kids? Or the kidneys, or both 😂
That’s not frustrating at all 🤦🏻♂️
Might just be a duff component? Haha yeah there was a bit of overkill on the first one
I’ve still got your original question one here
Oh cool, @loudscotsbloke.bsky.social mentioned to me this project was finished. Looking forward to the video
Amazing 😀
It did when last used haha it’s been a while though and we all know how these things can be
Upgrade, upgrade some more and then even MORE 😂😂
It took quite a while to find them that’s for sure, although that was also handy as it spread the cost haha
Only the RS232 expansion to get and I can move on to another obsession 😂
Can you drop me a message sometime, I’ve got another machine you may be interested in
@heredragons.be would block me as well if it lead to you buying one of those 😂
Haha if I’m blocked I’ll know it’s gold 😂😂
After you left I said it might have been filled with gold bars, which made me instantly regret not checking 😂 but yeah it would definitely be interesting especially as it’s modern so surely can’t be the PSU
It’s no problem the crying is just the moths flying away haha
On Saturday Thomas and I went on a MEGA road trip to the @shortcircuit.org.uk guys @petescircuit.bsky.social and @heredragons.be in glorious Sandgate in Kent. We had the best day there and the video of that trip will be coming very soon! Thank you Tony and Pete!
It was an absolute pleasure to see you both and of course you managed to pick the perfect day that had that nice breeze by the sea so we didn’t completely bake haha
Oh cool, do you have a picture of it working(not as a parasol weight)? Lol
😂😂😂
Hahahaha brilliant, that really made me lol 😂😂
I might be able to help you out there 😉
Ah mate that’s brilliant well done
We're crowdfunding for our next short film, In the Algorithm we Trust. A film set in a near future UK. Please share www.indiegogo.com/projects/in-... #film #filmmaker #crowdfunding
Fantastic to see 😀
Definitely the right choice 😂👍🏻
Just reread the post, yep P14 on mine as well
I’ve not been keeping full tabs on the problems but feel free to text me what you need and I’m happy to have a look if you think it’ll help 👍🏻
Will borrowing a working one help at all?
How cool you and @gouldfishongames.com in the same week………nice job mate 😀
I still remember your face as I was wiring that up 😂😂
Amazing, I always had that feeling like you know you’d done something right when you made it into there 😀 Which of course you did, well done my friend and a great project 👍🏻
That was a mad old time that’s for sure
Wasn’t that the trip from the Cambridge place?
To anybody else that probably would seem odd but not to 99% of your followers haha
As it should be 😎😂
The coffee mug of choice 👌🏻
When you’ve made it onto our website then you know you’ve made it 😂 Jokes aside thank you to everyone that attended and made it such a great event and experience for everyone
Stealth Angel………I like it 😎😂
Thank you so much for the kind words mate it was great to see you there although where you didn’t have the trademark hat on on the Sunday I didn’t always recognise you haha! Looking forward to seeing you again soon 👍🏻
The start of a big adventure! This lovable little Spectrum has embarked on a trip around the world where it will visit many retro and vintage tech people along the way. Started off by @2600.me who handed it to me, it's visited the @retrocollective.co.uk and is now in the safe hands of YARC Todd.
Yeah it was a great display and a really good idea/theme 👍🏻
He may not be a Red Arrow but John does make exceedingly good videos. This one on the OSI Superboard II & UK101 is well worth a watch. www.youtube.com/watch?v=93XW...
Photo bombing at it’s finest 😂👍🏻
I hope you frame this to show future generations 😂👍🏻 great to see you as always
Great video I just have no idea how you found time to make it as whenever I saw you you were busy chatting with people……….multitasking at its finest haha
Pure laziness 😂 also I hope you feel better mate 👍🏻
Wonderful video of the event
Well I sincerely hope so 😀 now……..where did I put that Lego VAX machine 😎
Like that opportunity was ever going to be missed haha
I’ll add that to the feedback haha. I guess we’ll be seeing you next year then 😉
I’m so glad you guys could make it, you’ve genuinely been missed 👍🏻
Really glad you made it and had a good time 😀👍🏻
So pleased you had a good time though 😀👍🏻
I can’t believe I missed you as well and it was my event 😂😂 although like Adrian maybe I did talk to you but my mind has it locked away till it’s recovered haha!
I’ll allow it haha thats brilliant though mate
I'll be at #RetroFest UK this saturday (May 31st) if you spot me and say Spectrum, Gameboy, Advance or Master System you might get a present (stock depending) #RetroComputing #RetroGaming #RetroFest youtu.be/tix31nV6CbQ retrofest.uk
That’s what my ex wife will probably put on my gravestone 😂😂😂
Then I have no words 🙄😂😂
It’s the thought that counts 😉👍🏻
A real head slap moment that’s for sure haha
😂😂😂 brilliant
Sorry to hear this but she certainly sounds like a great parent
Red Arrows badge 😂 you’re such a legend 😂👍🏻
Getting things ready to take to Retrofest. Less than a week to go! Yikes!!
Totally agree 😀

Love this 😀👍🏻
