Beginning to use the new The Spectrum – the first 30 minutes
So I unboxed my The Spectrum yesterday afternoon. For those who don’t know, The Spectrum is a remake of the Sinclair ZX Spectrum that came out in the 1980’s. The packaging is very nice.…

Retro Tech is as popular as ever, with the younger and older people in their 50’s like me. In 2025 I’ve had a retro resurgence and I got given (by myself) a ZX Spectrum for Christmas 20…

(continued) I wanted to communicate with a Church community in South America, who helps the poor locally. It felt right to help. For the price of 10 fancy latte's a month, instead we help. Cut down on caffeine too. And the start of sponsorship so close to Christmas, it's good.

Found out today that we can financially sponsor Y*****, who is from South America via her Church community over there that supports her and her family. Certainly is good news. Our finances will go to her schooling, clothing, food and general help for her family over many years.

I have infrequent communication with Luigi, Paul M, Trev C and Albert's niece Kathy, colleagues from the ITEC days.
But a reunion in-person with them and remaining colleagues all together won't happen. Plus Bharat died, Albert died. So time has moved on for quite a few of us now.

My friend Albert was like an older brother to me, a very good friend. We had some laughs. Nearly 9 years gone now, taken cruelly from us so soon, rest in peace.

Remembering the time I got lost in Singapore airport, back in 1997. I was flying back to UK alone that time. I had 30 minutes to catch my flight, just made it. Teresa stayed back for an extended holiday that year.
