Nope not a peep!

Sounds to me like a MM2 raffle item for the top 5 dumpster threads!

No - not a raffle.

A collection fund, like when I got a muppet to strip in my S. Everyone chips in a bit and the 5 most outrageous (selected by the muppets here) get aired.

I'd chuck in a fiver for charidee, who's with me?

I didn't have a Spectrum.

I had a Texas Ti99/4A

Different, you see.

Never even heard of one of those - I had a BBC Model B when everyone else had a spectrum, and then an Atari St when many friends had an Amiga (upgrading to an STE (never supported properly by the games developers) with memory upgraded to 2MB!).

Ti99? Crikey. There's a blast from the past!

Had a Dragon32 myself....after the wonderful ZX81 of course (4k? Eeek!). Took some getting used to did 6809 (?) assembler (Motorola chipset iirc) after the Zilog Z80A assembler though. The hours I spent wringing every ounce of processing power and memory out of those things....

Ah, those wonderful days of the Memorex, Oric (Wrigleys chewing gum for keys), Dragon, Speccy, Commodore (remember the PET?!), Acorn Atom (quicky!), BBC (A & B - well respected)...and many others I've long forgotten!! Sigh.

Nowdays I just get to do boring ole' IBM mainframe assembler for a living. And Java and COBOL and SAS and REXX and PL/1 (very occasionally) and...some others I've forgotten! Sorry...way off topic....

And I bet that if it is found, most people will say it isn't that funny/outrageous.


The big difference with resurrecting the BJ thread was that it had been requested by the Kelk (and a few others ) and that all the people mentioned are still active on the site.

(who won BTW, Mr V ?? )

[QUOTE=cheshire_carper,Aug 30 2005, 08:29 PM] I agree with Jenny; they were not all attacks on Pete, one was on Brian and I`m sure one was on me.


I was hurt by some of the things he said.
