And back in the room. Decided to start baking again, used to do loads years ago - a simple white loaf to kick off. Not perfect - let's call it artisan - needs a few tweaks, but not bad. And VERY tasty! #baking #bread #cooking #artisan #goodfood #homecooking

Another Retro Game from my Amiga 1200 - this one is the seminal Team 17 / Ocean Software Alien Breed 3D. I was so bowled over at the time by the 3D graphics! 👾🕹️ #retro #retrogaming #retrocomputing #alienbreed #team17 #amiga1200

Another memory - Electronic Detective. I played this one to death - pardon the pun - and for the time, was a really state-of-the-art toy. Can still hear those sound effects! #retro #1970s #toys #memories #electronicdetective

Random memory - had this late 70s, absolutely loved it. A quiz machine masquerading as a giggly robot with a helium voice, basically an 8-track cassette player with push buttons. Oh, and flashing eyes for effect 👀 #retro #1970s #toys #memories #2-XL
