    First computer - BBC Electron The girl friend reading out lines and lines pages and pages of Basic code from a computer magazine to be meticulously entered to play the latest game. One comma, one character, one colon missed and the game wouldn't run! Check all the code entry again!!

    I loved my Electron. OK I still have my Electron...

    It was (is) epic - Mode 7 board, dual disk drives, backplane for cartridges, even has a mouse.

    Electron User was great!

    "....Tonight it's the big one- The Sunday Night Primo and I'm back on duty with the old dear...." You are SO going to reget that, you incompetent wazzock. PS - A tomato is a FRUIT, right? Understand? Just because someone THINKS it is a vegetable, does not MAKE IT a vegetable. Comprehend? You've made me grumpy now, & you've only got yourself to blame. Be afraid.

    I agree.  That was the point I was trying to make with my final post last night.  Somehow Rich managed to interpret that as it's a vegetable, lol.

    10 Input "Please enter an edible object you are unsure the genus of"; A$
    20 If A$ = "Tomato" Then Go To 50
    30 Print "Wazzock"
    40 Go To 60
    50 Print "Total Wazzock"
    60 End

    Hi Dave,

    I sent you & Sue an e-Mail today - just to say, really, good luck to you both tonight in the VLV thing.

    PS - There is a Typo in your Post - you said "spun gun", you meant "spud gun". Wonderful things, not seen one for ages.

    What about Etcha-Sketch

    Remember the TV ads that showed drawings that had perfect 45 Degree lines and also circles. Impossible trying to turn both knobs at the same rate to achieve anything like! LOL.


    Yea also remember the Stylophone --- Rolf Harris ad --- Dross mono-tone that everybody loved  (or maybe hated) but had to have one

    Loving all these- loads of material to talk to Tikay about. Let's hope he's heard of some of them!

    We're on at 9 everyone, but if you want to take part in the actual tourney- it starts at 8.

    See you later!

    Worst gadget ever was the barcode battler.  I think the idea was you could cut out barcodes from anything and stick them onto card, and then swipe it and you would have some kind of fight with the machine depending on the info on the barcode?  Never once got it to work.  Totally useless.

    Gadget Nostalgia,

    I remember a game called "Crossfire"
    Where you repeatedly fired steel ball bearings from a plastic gun
    at a large puck type thing to try and score into your oppo's goal.

    Inevitably someone always caught a ricochet in the eye.
    (iPad, we had them back then on standby, just in case).

    Where would we be today, without Health & Safety.

    As a youth I remember when my parents rented the latest (and at the time very revolutionary) telephone model called the  'Trimphone'.
     It was the 1st telephone manufactured that did not incorporate a bell but an electronic warbler that mimicked a bird and had an extra long lead that allowed you to walk around the room whilst having a conversation.
    The dial glowed in the dark due to it's radiactivity and the phone came in 3 colours (ours was 2-tone blue) and for it's day, very popular with the younger kids as it had that wow factor , just a terrible shame they were so unreliable.

    NOT a gadget but I'm sure TK will remember these....GREEN SHIELD STAMPS!

    You got 4 x stamps free for filling your car up with petrol. Stuck them on a card, and when you had saved up 30,000 stamps you redeemed them in a Green Shield shop (bit like Argos) for goods in the catalogue e.g. 30K got you something like a  toaster! Remember working it out once that to get a toaster you needed to spend circa £10K in petrol!!!  Ahh the good old days!!!

    Great stuff all- loads of posts already and we haven't even started the show.

    I've come up with an 'exciting' new quiz strand tonight...

    What's...in Tikay's box?

    Yes, the mind boggles (shudder).

    What in fact IS in Tikay's box are 3 prizes: 2 entries to decent buy-in tourneys and one booby prize.

    We need 3 contestants though via the usual channel......skyopen@bskyb.com

    Email us your phone number and we'll get you on the air to answer five questions on a subject of your choosing from poker, TV and film.

    Whoever gets the most answers right out of 5, gets to delve in Tikay's box. Enjoy!

    Rich, you know how you struggle to find contestants for these things?

    Making the prize "getting to delve into Tikay's box" is not helping your cause!

    I'm glad you don't allow Orford sharp objects - I dread to think of the off-camera horrors.
