exxos's Atari, Amiga & retro forum

Just done a very small update to the first page, please see the not done so far bit, can you help with anything there?

I wanted to also use this opportunity to ask what you my be bringing? what you'd like to see etc?

I have a reasonably large collection of 8 bit computers and can bring a couple of those along, anything you like specifically? I'll probably bring a Beeb at the least.

I won't be able to make it this time - will there be an ability to buy raffle tickets etc. to help with the costs?

Shame you can’t make it, yes there will be a chance to buy raffle tickets again, we’ve just got to finalise the payment thing.

First post updated.

If you’re a member of another forum or Facebook group, there will soon be a poster that you can link to or add to a post on your group. The meet up is open to anyone and not just members of the forum.

I'm still very much hoping to make this but it turns out my wife is away for a few days exactly over this weekend -- which means I'm baby and dog sitting.

Currently mulling over the feasibility of a full-day trip with a computer or two in the boot plus an 8-month old with her support gear... I'm quite keen at the moment but practicality may overcome me nearer the time! :lol:

@Badwolf you'd be welcome with or without computer gear. And nothing wrong with starting the kids on retro gear whilst they are too young to tell a keyboard from a mouse :D

I think that I've decided upon what I will bring in just under 2 months time:

The 030 crew

• ST with TF536
• TT
• Falcon

Plus

• Jaguar (for games playing) with two controllers and a flash cartridge with ALL DA GAMES(tm)

Cool, one extra large desk for Mr@stephen_usher coming up

Please see the first page for a small update, final details and flyer in the next couple of days.

If you could all share details of the event on Facebook or other forums like Stardot, AtariAge etc that would be greatly appreciated. Please try and link them back to the first post of this topic.

Many thanks

Heres some pictures of the pristine C64C raffle prize:


Also included is a brand new reliable replacement PSU.

A fantastic example of the classic C64C, Im sure you will agree.
