Excerpts from A Very Spectrum Christmas (Part 7) by Thomas A. Christie. In this section: "Moley Christmas" by Gremlin Graphics (1987). 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.

Paddy Wex - I, Pad, Haven't Got An Ipad (original comedy song)

I, Pad, don't possess an iPhone; Haven't got an iPad; what an irony! I used to have an i-chair when I was just a baby Now all I have is ITV. If I truly loved technology I'd keep an i- on every kind of gadget you can name: An iPatch would be perfect for the puncture on my bicycle And cutting things just out of reach could be done with an iSickle If you're upper class and stupid but want to seem quite clever The iTwit is the thing for you, the best invention ever If you want to cut some timber, why not try the Apple store? It may sound pretty ugly but there's nothing like an iSaw.
