Goodness. Seem to have dug up issue #2 of the Blake’s 7 Poster Magazine. pic.twitter.com/PyWBQJSaHg
@hayles Just checked. They’re playing the Royal Albert Hall this year. 17 seats left in the stalls, £252 each.
@hayles Wonder how much you’d pay to see Heart at Wembley these days…
First big gig where *I* decided what we were seeing :D pic.twitter.com/4Qc7OSdssw

@MandinaM I’ve been thinking about it for years. Finally needed a decent scanner for the business, which helped.
@MandinaM Two or three hours. Gently pottering and scanning, not really going for it, either.
I just scanned 1,541 elderly photos. Fuji ScanSnap scanners really do have excellent paper feeds.

(And that’s childhood friend Claire, who lived over the road.)
I also had an alarm clock fetish, it seems. Under the clock radio is a 150(?)-in-1 electronics project kit. pic.twitter.com/vFuXvEGEeS

@talkie_tim I had the Electron for ages. It was in between the ZX81 and the BBC Master.
@Bristolvor (Incidentally, if you’re into podcasts, I highly recommend @DownAndSafe :) )
@Bristolvor Really. Nexus 2000 con. Met her, Paul Darrow, Gareth Thomas, Nicholas Courtney and Walter Koenig, among others.
@Bristolvor I have a photo of me together with the beautiful Ms. Pearce around somewhere…
@Bristolvor I remember watching Blake’s 7 on one. I’m re-watching an episode right now! I haven’t changed much.

@Bristolvor But it had actual pushbuttons, unlike the one in my room :) pic.twitter.com/u6ctGQHHoZ

@guriben @samsneed12 @jukesie I think it might have been a golf club bar. Probably looks just the same today.
This was cutting-edge technology at the time. pic.twitter.com/rRK4lGEtop
@hayles Pretty sure my high-tech digital watch there played “The Yellow Rose of Texas” for an alarm, too. I WUZ KEWL.
I started early, apparently. pic.twitter.com/tC3ptKyL6G

I think I might go to a garden centre today. Feels just about springy enough.
@chubbybannister Delivered like an echo of his own abusive childhood.
@chubbybannister Oh! I’d completely forgotten it was Archers time. *turns on all the radios*

@waiyeehong I have never heard of those but just based on the description I WANT THEM IN MY MOUTH RIGHT NOW.
