If you like all aspects of retro gaming, we'll get along just fine. I've built a huge collection over the years & the Commodore 64 is my main system. I'm also big into mountain biking & anything to do with comedy.
I think I'll get out on the bike for an hour to the Masons & have a bit of a gaming session.

Here's a nice little handheld I picked up Wales whilst on holiday. I've been after one of these for a while. There was no battery cover, box or instruction manual so I got so made & I think it looks alright.

I was lucky enough to make it to the VideOdessey in Liverpool to view the great play 'Together in Electric Dreams'. Both Daniel Thackeray & Steve Cain gave an epic performance portraying both Sir Clive Sinclair & Sir Alan Sugar superbly in the selling off of Sinclair.
It well worth a watch!

I dropped on a nice little addition for the collection today.
When I went to collect & pay for it, the guy said his brother had bought it for him as a Christmas present & he had only used it a couple of times before putting in storage in the attic and I can well believe it.

The Philips Videopac Computer.
This was my first gaming system that I got for Christmas when I was 10 or so. You can't beat a bit of Quest for the Rings. 😉

Just been having a catch up with a good old friend from the C64 years. He's having a clear out & sent me a few picks of some old PC related stuff he's getting rid off. You don't see the likes of these everyday.

I picked up one of my Commodore 64's & 1541 disk drive back from the repairers yesterday. I've boxed them back up till the weekend when I'll be giving them a good run out with a few of the old classic games. 😉
