This is the next chapter in The Roaming Spectrum series. I won’t spoil it but Todd has made a really lovely video including an insight into his hometown in Ohio. Thank you Todd! youtu.be/gUYPjxa9PIU?...

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.

Really happy that I can finally share this lovely video @morefunmakingit.bsky.social made about my ZX Spectrum. If anyone is interested in being part of the adventure, pop me a DM. :-) youtu.be/yir_SZW4yXI

It puts a smile on my face when we have more options for properly testing this old hardware we all love! Christian has implemented the March-B RAM test on the C64, which blows away the inadequate RAM test in use on all the legacy diagnostic carts. github.com/amigatomte/A...

Something special arrived in the post yesterday—an IBM PC 5150, the same type I last owned decades ago. It’s not working yet, but with its off-the-shelf parts, I’m hopeful I can get it running with help from @mogwaay.bsky.social and the amazing folks on the Retro Hardware Discord. ❤️

For just a moment each Friday, our house is immaculate. The brief pause between the cleaner’s departure and our three-year-old’s happy, stomping return. Then comes the brilliant chaos, the small hands leaving a trail of destruction and laughter and fun. And I wouldn’t trade a second of it.❤️

Happy V-Day to my wonderful rugby-playing, crossbow-wielding, smiley, fabulous wife. ❤️

Latest video! Today, or this week, I'm hawking my wares on eBay. Who wants to buy a stunningly gorgeous ZX Spectrum I've lovingly restored back to better than new condition? You don't? Fair! Actually cant imagine anyone in the hobby doesn't already have one :D But will be fun watching the auction.

I’ve been spending time over the past few weeks looking into the problems with the lovely Ferranti PC-33. By all accounts, it’s a very rare beast! It’s 8086-based, which in itself is pretty cool. 1/4

Twenty thousand electric miles. That’s a thousand gallons of petrol that haven’t been burned. Feeling pretty chuffed with that.

Slightly triggered by this tape on the floor at the pool for son’s swimming lessons. Who would do this? 😂
