Electrolytics are actually just fine 😁

Well, my RAM expansion for the AUX slot is with the Post Office, so should be here by the weekend, and I've ordered a Floppyemu today, expecting that to be a couple of weeks too. All ahead full :)

Very good about the ram and emu
The big question is do you have a joystick 🕹

Not yet, but I can hopefully either find one cheap on eBay or build my own :)

Very neat little unit, here it is in the slot:

By default I can now jump into 80 Column mode by typing PR#3, so getting the additional 64KB at least, but I won't be able to test the memory setting utility until I get my FloppyEmu.
It's a start though.
