Can’t quite believe the ZX Spectrum turns 44 today! 🙏 I’m even less willing to acknowledge I’m more than a decade older than it!

On 23 April 1982, Sir Clive Sinclair unveiled a rubber-keyed, rainbow-striped 8-bit computer at the Churchill Hotel in London. It cost £125. It sold over five million units. It contributed significantly to the launch of the British IT industry.

Around twenty thousand+ games were made for it including of course Jet Set Willy, Atic Atac and my personal fave - The Way of the Exploding Fist 🤜 💥

In the middle of an AI arms race, it’s worth remembering how simple the computing experience used to be.

What was your first ZX Spectrum game?🕹️

🧵 Record-breaking day for Great Britain's electricity system! ⚡

@BanquetRecords @BobbyVMedia @castofficial Cast were great! But also great to bump into Keith from @NorthernUproar1 supporting just like back in the day!

Month in, month out, the RAC criticises fuel retailers, regardless of whether pump prices rise or fall. But there is a disconnect between the RAC's reproval and its own profits, says Forecourt Trader's Hugo Griffiths. https://t.co/iLWdLbklE3

Scrape a win against 10 men to tie a series then celebrate like you've won the World Cup. Embarrassing.
A quick handshake and back to the pavilion is all that's needed.

Chiloe Island in Chile’s far south - what a place! This is where Montes have an exquisite miniature vineyard nestling in above a creek of icy clear water, and the view from your bedroom in the Estancia Rilan is as relaxing as any in the world. Perfick

@LondonMoneyFS They are getting what they deserve. The most cynical team in the PL.

@JonTolleyTweets @KingstonNubNews It'll be a big ol' foot bridge that connects Surbiton with Bushy Park!

[Edmund Norman @lngmaned]

@LondonMoneyFS Yeah Starmer was at it the other night trying to get Liverpool match called off the other night to boost Arsenals title chances

@TfL This is a UK issued card that has worked every day for years until very recently. It's via Google pay if that's any help

[Edmund Norman @lngmaned]

Hi @TfL have you stopped taking Amex via contactless on the Oyster readers? Didn't work on Sunday and not working again today. Error code 67. Thanks
