ZX Spectrum 128k R Tape Loading Error The amount of times my 8 year old self was haunted by the message 'R Tape Loading Error' is actually criminal. The ZX Spectrum 128k tape loader was my very first computer- and maybe due to its primitive nature, the reliability was a little, let's say... off. My parents bought it when I was approximately aged 3, however why I would use it at this age is completely beyond me. Apparently I used to pull it out from the behind the sofa, plug it into the mains, plug the adapter into the TV set and at least get the blurry start up screen on. I have written about the ZX Spectrum before and my love hate relationship with it before.  You can read that article here  at least it shows I actually have abiding memories on the topic.  Watch a real R Tape Loading Error ZX Spectrum 128k tape loader breakage worries My main fear with the ZX Spectrum 128k, obviously after I was three years old ( I have a three year old currently and even though he is cl...

Help the Homeless

Outside my local supermarket, near the doors, there is always a range of homeless people with begging hats and cups laid out before them.

I’m ADDICTED to junk food

 I’m addicted to junk food. There you go I said it. I can’t help it. I can’t stop eating it. No I probably won’t lose my house, car or family over it but I am addicted to junk food. It might not be as destructive as alcohol or drugs but I am addicted to junk food. That’s three times I’ve said it.  I sneak downstairs at midnight and literally stuff my face with crisps. I can’t get them into my mouth quickly enough. I love the feeling of my mouth being full of crisps. I literally inhale packets and packets every sitting- sometimes eight packets.  The thing is I want to stop- I’ve seen the pictures of me- but I can’t. I literally love eating them so much. But I know I should stop but I simply can’t. I have no idea what to do next
