Hello Hello!!

I'm also a dealer at the Gala International and avid poker player, been reading this site for months and months. Thought it was about time I registered and sorted myself out like Kev.

Any Blondites going to the Poker4Charity event on the 3rd Dec?

See you in the card room!

anyone that thought a C64 was better than a speccy deserves to end up in a dead end job like a card room manager


the speccy ruled

Vic 20 was nearly as good as the spectrum!! All I can remember of the spectrum before i sold it was entering a game in basic from a magazine, called manic miner. Much more impressed with c64's chess. lol

manic minor wasnt a basic game it was a cross platform mega hit and predcessor of jet set willy

speccy was by far the superior machine to the C64

yeah the amiga was better but it like comparing a 486 to a P4 differenet generation

Down at my parents the other weekend, found an old book of mine...



Brought it into work & caused a severely geeky argument about who had the best old computer. Strange thing was all spectrum owners said the z & x keys were broken on them - Daley Thompson's Decathalon had killed them all Smiley

One of my favorite games was the old Football Manager on the spectrum, it was brilliant to find an XL version recently - you can play it at work & it looks like you're working on a really intricate spreadsheet  Cheesy

Was Valhalla the one where you went to hell when you died, lost all your stuff and had to wander about a hell for 20 minutes picking it up if you wanted it back?

Anyone else remember playing Valhalla on the CBM64 way back when?

I never knew what the hell was going on, either.

Yes, but can you still press break on the keyboard to get into the basic programming and add about 6 zeros to your starting cash.

So it wouldn't work on the moon, but that wasn't that big a problem back then.
