Re: Wanted: Does anyone have any copies of the Gilsoft Adventure Writer (the other quill)

I have not been around much having got distracted by several other projects and I am afraid I have not managed to find a later version than A03 so I think in the interests of preservation I should get the files to safety (Although Huw the original author, now in the far east, has a copy so there are...

Re: My First Sinclair QL

I would also advise extreme care before you use any of the Cartridges in your QL - the felt pad usually fails, gets distributed in the cartridge and on the head. This causes a jam and a need to clean up - often the cartridge cannot be recovered or the tape cleaned well enough. It can also move to th...

Re: Random obscure survey...
