Ok. I am gutted and really sorry to say that the servers are all gone. Over 1600 members on RHD and some lowlife deleted it forever with a click. Also stole a bunch of money from my account.
I will make an update video and post that here when I get home.
Whatever happens we are going to rebuild.
Here's something I've never worked on before!
Probably the most powerful 8bit console of it's time?
Here is a Spotify link for those inclined that way

We have the brand NEW PicoMEM 2 in stock now. Such a nice product from Freddy. Huge upgrade to the version 1 which we will still sell for the cost conscious buyer. Get them here shop.flamelily.co.uk/picomem2
Fixing a ZX Spectrum is now getting to be like putting on a pair of my favourite slippers. Probably novelty gorilla feet, but comfortable and I am only likely to fall down the stairs in them 50% of the time.
But they are fun!
My chums @escapingirl.bsky.social @therossbell.bsky.social and @zebwen.bsky.social resurrected our podcast Ready Player 2. It's all about video gaming of all kinds and us having a great time talking about things we love.

Episode 2 of RP2-Continue podcast.
Didnt take me long to usurp our regular host Rich and take the reigns for myself. He may return. If he's good.
Im joined by the amazing @escapingirl.bsky.social and excellent @therossbell.bsky.social for more chat about games, old and new. And what I've been eating
Seems Lee @morefunmakingit.bsky.social has had his Discord account hacked this morning and the Retro Hardware Discord (as well as others he manages) has been deleted as a result. People are in touch and he's aware. Here's hoping for a speedy resolution 😬
