    You never used the ZX80 with 1K RAM?

      I can remember when you only had two.

      In fact the first telly we had would only receive the BBC... (single channel tuner...)

      Actually, coz it was on a piped system, we had the luxury of Westward TV as well as TWW...
      A telly? I can remember when we lived in a hole in the ground, worked 25 hours a day at mill and had to pay t’ millowner for t’privilege of working!

      And you try and tell that to young people today…

        I admire the Daily Mail for the way it takes stories about Insurance firms withdrawing cover or increasing premiums or making daft stipulations and blames it on H & S 'busy bodies' (preferably from the Council). It's neat - it makes the killjoys look like those nasty leftie nanny statists rather than large faceless capitalist firms.
