Excerpts from A Very Spectrum Christmas (Part 6), by Thomas A. Christie. In this section: "Special Delivery" by Creative Sparks (1984). 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. "A Very Spectrum Christmas" is Copyright ©2021 Thomas A. Christie, all rights reserved, and is published by Extremis Publishing Ltd. This title is available as a physical book from www.extremispublishing.com and all good online retailers and independent booksellers worldwide.

She-Oak Affair - Kissing The Flint

Written by Leah Chynoweth-Tidy for her debut Kissing The Flint EP 'Unconditionality' released in 2019, this upbeat track reminds us that life far too often gets manic and we need to remember to take the time to slow down or stop and smell the roses.  Or in this case, relaxing on the sand under the shade of a She-Oak tree, gazing at the sea and downing a cold drink - or three!
