New show Episode 4 streaming now. Please share. It seems I am doing two a week at the moment. I'll calm down eventually I suppose. But for now it's a very absorbing retirement hobby and besides something I've wanted to do for YEARS. www.mixcloud.com/philsouth/th...

Another new-ish (pseudo-recycled) post. This time highlighting a bunch of really fun #ZXSpectrum games that caught my eye in 2025, along with my personal top 5 of the year. sloanysoft.wordpress.com/2026/04/05/m...
Played some hours with the excellent and incredibly tense rock-climbing game Cairn yesterday, and woke up with sore fingers from gripping the controller to hard. Immersion! store.steampowered.com/app/1588550/...
