For retro gamers and BBC/Electron 8-bit fans, just in time for Christmas, we have copies of the Acorn - A World in Pixels book available and will send them along with a couple of original Repton badges from back in the day. Go to idesine.com to order. #bbcmicro #acorn

We had a signing session during our gathering. First was 'ACORN: a world in pixels' ( 2nd edition ). Andrew wrote the article about Paul Proctor's work on the BBC Micro - at the time we hadn't been able to get hold of Paul to fact-check everything. It was mostly right!

Had an awesome day meeting up with school friends Andrew Farrow and Paul Proctor. We spent part of the day at the NorthWest Computer Museum followed by a curry and catch-up. Paul played his BBC Micro 'Alien 8' conversion for the first time in many, many years. @joekay66

@KevEdwardsRetro Love this, Paul was somewhat elusive during the creation of the book. Andrew’s recollections covered the story admirably. Glad it as mostly right!

@idesine @snuggsy187 Would love to get more details but can’t DM unless I pay to be verified.
