Excerpts from A Very Spectrum Christmas, by Thomas A. Christie. (Part 1) Introduction. Throughout the 1980s, thousands of British children were lucky enough to discover a Sinclair ZX Spectrum under their Christmas trees and soon found their eyes opened to a virtual world of wonder. But Santa Claus did more than deliver computers — sometimes he appeared on them, too. This book delves into the Spectrum’s extraordinary pantheon of seasonal games: the good, the bad, the surprising, the unabashedly surreal and the occasionally rather tenuous.

This title is available as a physical book from www.extremispublishing.com and all good online retailers and independent booksellers worldwide.

Dear Corona - Pigeon Party

Dear Corona (lyrics original by Rapden: Pigeon Party) She, she is a cold girl, brought the whole world down on their knees She, she is a mean girl, trying to rip us all off our means But there's a silver lining, she doesn't know, she doesn't care but we do And there's no point in whining, she doesn't mind, she has no time to what we do So, I've quarantined myself, just to go within, it's the one place she'll never find And I, I've reclaimed myself, to come out clean, it's the one game she'll never win So leave me alone, why don't you go on your own Dear Corona
