Last week was fun. In fact, we had not just one but TWO markopolomans! One mysteriously appeared and refused to speak, lurking in the background, then another appeared that was the real one. How strange. If I didn't know any better, I'd swear someone had logged on under a false username! The mystery...

Hi guys! Would have posted an update earlier but I was busy creating my Dominic Cummings fanpage. I just don't understand why people are criticising this great man. So what if he visited relatives 250 miles away while he had symptoms of coronavirus? It was really important, and I'm sure he washed hi...

Every day is silent and grey....

His best ever song!

We will be back on tonight talking about the coronavirus no doubt, as you do on a retrogaming chat, after Boris Johnson's 6pm address to the nation. He will relax the rules, so we can celebrate that tonight from 9pm on Discord. Follow the link in my signature. And remember the new guidelines: STAY A...

Hey you! YES, YOU!! Don't inject that bleach just yet!! Come on tonight and we can talk more about the Coronavirus. I am taking steps to self-isolate in my flat from everyone else in the building by living in my Atari 5200. There's plenty of space, that's for sure! My Spectrum wasn't looking too goo...

Tonight we can carry on again with another retro gaming chat, which sadly has turned into the Kieren Hawken slaughterhouse these last few weeks. Still it keeps us from talking about the world ending. All I can say about that is thank god we have the Tory party in during this moment of extreme crisis...

Just to let you know the chat is on this Sunday at 9pm again. Due to the conversation being so much about Laird recently, we were thinking of renaming it the Kieren Hawken Fan Club, but that might not increase the attendance! Hope to see some of you there on Sunday 9pm anyway--the link is in my sign...

I definitely prefer forums to Facebook, no question, but for now the conversation seems to be happening on that site for the most part. I hope somehow it changes in the future

I'll really give it a go this Sunday. I think I'm free. The chat is quite irreverant, and this weekend we will still be on the potential lookout for The Laird who you will surely know has made a little bit of news recently. But he didn't turn up last week so I doubt he will be back again. See you f...

A topic for you to discuss: ZX Spectrum sales numbers. The total is 5 millions I believe. 15% of those were the Amstrad made Spectrum +3, roughly 750 000 machines. I can only assume more Spectrum +2 were made. How many Spectrums did Sinclair make? How about russian clones, Timex and maybe other pro...

Yes, the Retro Gaming Chatroom hosted on Discord is on this weekend, Sunday 9pm to be precise, so I hope some people who are brave enough can join the entertainment when it begins, and it won't just be about slagging off the Amstrad either. We will talk about non-Sugar related items if you like. Spe...

Just a quick note to say that the Retro Gaming chat is back on after the christmas break, so if you want to join in, it's from 9pm tonight, and the link is in the signature of this post. I hope to see some of you there

It is Christmas week and the retro chat is running this Sunday. The link to the discord chatroom is in my signature. I hope to see you from Sunday 9pm :wink: And now here is an updated tale for the festive season: __________________________________A CHRISTMAS CAROL___________________________________...

Tails is seen as the Scrappy Doo of the series which is quite an insult when you think about it
