So Sad and shocked to learn of the death of Ben Versteeg, (Byte Delight). Ben's passion and enthusiasm, in the Sinclair Spectrum community was unmatched, and was such a pleasant, knowledgeable person to talk to. Will miss you my friend. Rest in peace Ben.

UNFORTUNATELY, I HAVE HAD TO STOP POSTING TO USA FROM TODAY 29/08/25. This is because of the new tariffs imposed on all imports to USA of any value. As there is currently no mechanism to collect the 10% tariff within ebay. Will miss my American customers. Regards, Ian Priddey.

Taking a short break over the Bank Holiday. My ebay shop opens again Tuesday 26th August at 13:00 Regards, Ian Priddey ebay.co.uk/str/retrocompu…

@virginmedia My broadband service went down on the 13/08/25 at 14:30, in the BL5 2JH area, and is still down 15/08/2025 - 14:00 Almost 3 days without internet access, and trying to run my business from home. NOT ACCEPTIBLE for a major provider, not to be able to fix the problem much quicker.

@RetroCompShack Hi there, whilst we do our best to keep any faults and downtime to an absolute minimum, unfortunately service issues do happen from time to time. We'll always aim to have you back up and running as soon as possible, but, in some instances, this can take longer than we'd like.

@virginmedia 13/08/25 -14:30 INTERNET SERVICE DOWN in the BL5 2JH area. Fault found. STILL REPAIRING AND INTERNET SERVICE STILL DOWN!! 15/08/25 - 09:02. Completely unacceptable service!
