Was the male computer on Red Dwarf, turned female in series 4 I think, then came back as male later on again.
Holly, named after Hal…. From 2001, A Space Odyssey.

Thanks for that… I just spent last 2 hours down a rabbit hole looking for old games.

Repton…. Had a look, but that’s not it.

This memory must have been when I was about 12…. When the first bbc computers were a few years earlier…
I started to question the “Mario” character, and I’ve come up with “magic mushrooms”

I maybe got this mixed up with the original donkey kong… with the ladders…. And did include Mario.


Now I just need to find the music.

The BBC was way after my school days. I can remember when they first allowed a calculator in school. My first computer was also a Vic20. It's amazing what you could do with 3.5k of RAM

What did the BBC stand for .

It wasn't called 'Hex' was it? I wonder how many people will understand that.

Alton towers ?

Calculators? Luxury, Bloody luxury!

We had little beads on a string!


Did you wrap your school jotters in wallpaper, or was that just a Scottish thing?

Yes mum wrapped my jotters up in wall paper.i think it was the teachers request at the time ,everyone had to do it .just missed out on the slate and chalk by 10 years I think and the belt

Actually, I think it was called ‘Hal’

Confusing between stanley kubrick and a theme park
