How did you know I used to do COBOL?

Mind you, my first programme was on a demo ZX81 in Smiths and I reproduce it here for you all to enjoy. Call it my contribution to the open source project.

10 PRINT "Martin Wassall is gay"
20 GOTO 10

You'd be arrested for a hate crime these days doing that

How fortunate for governments that the people they administer don't think

20 GOTO 10

And the key sequence required to produce such a gem?

Also, much more effective if you put a space between the "y" and the endquote, add a ; to the end of the print statement and wahey!!!

10 PRINT "Martin Wassall is gay ";
20 GOTO 10

Still a bore Lucifer I see.

House Prices are crashing, so all of you idiots who have houses are in trouble now. Bet you wished you listened to me.

Still in China, still ****ing whores and last time I was in the UK fairly certain I ****ed your mother Lucifer.

No program works right first time. Not even the null program IEFBR14.

NB even the "final version" printed there has a bug:
BR GO
should be
B GO
of course.
