Wouldn't that mean pushing your bike all day?

That would make walking hand in hand with Mrs Red tricky, and make taking photos along the way more fiddlesome

Bugger. I forgot that I would have to have the bike with me while I was walking.   

Logistical help needed.

Park van at destination, cycle back to Mrs Red. (Who will not have noticed your absence, she'll still be in mid-sentence).

Park bike, chain it to a tree.

Walk the walk with Mrs Red.

Arrive destination for 2nd time.

Drive back to starting point.

Collect bike, drive back to destination.

Good plan, Tom.

It's a great film. Shirley MacLean is a wonderful actress but Jack Nicholson steals the show in this.

I like grand designs too.

My dad and I managed to get out hands on one of these babies. We spend countless hours painstakingly typing in programmes from computer magazines, only to find they wouldn't run because we, or the magazine publisher had made a typo or omitted a comma. We spent even more time looking for those typos than we did typing.  

Sometimes we did manage to get programmes typed in aright, only have them corrupted if someone was stupid enough to switch the kettle on. or, horror of horrors, lose them altogether if the generator conked.

To save a programme, you had to connect a cassette recorder and transfer everything to tape. Half an hour of da da de de da da to store enough information to make a little matchstick man walk across the screen.

It was so thrilling.

Happy days.

You watch programmes on TV, you write, or type in from magazines, programs.

I was always a Commodore boy myself, Commodore 16, then Commodore +4, then Amiga 500.

Back when the Specrum and Commodore computers were the height of technology was a wonderful time.

Up every Saturday morning to go along the high street, John Lewis, WH Smiths, Boots, just to check out the latest game releases on cassette.

I still relive those times on a site dedicated to keeping the Commodore 16 / +4 alive.

The forum is incredible there, guys still discussing, and dissecting the inner workings of the machine 30 years on.

I have to include a couple of pictures, just seeing these brings back so many memories.
