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.

Ernest J. Shuttlecock - Too Many Mince Pies (original comedy song)
An original song by me about eating and drinking far too much at Christmas.LYRICS: Too Many Mince Pies Christmas is a time for for sharing and giving But mainly it's a time to eat and drink everything* Bubbly for breakfast and mulled wine for lunch Wrapped up quite nicely with festive rum punch Gobbled up the turkey and OD'd on sprouts The after dinner port has given me gout

Farid - PatienceFarid made the first steps of his musical journey right after he learned how to stand up on his feet and isn’t ever planning to stop. As a child, he was greatly influenced by the heavy pop & r’n’b music wave that characterised the 90s, identifying strongly with Michael Jackson who, along with Justin Timberlake, have remained his strongest inspirations up to this day and have motivated him to never give up and pursue his dream of a stage career.
