Does anyone have this, please? I wish to borrow it. I am feeling nostalgic and a tad 'retro'.

I would be ever so thankful. 🕹️

Used to take ages to load a game, flip the tape over. All the lines going across the screen and then it would crash…

couple, us we him her.

Benatone Spectrum, Pacman, Commodore

ZX-81, Donkey Kong, fucking high score

Push it to the limit, couldn't push it any more

Wanna be a fucking robot after smoking loads of draw

Bought a speak and spell, stuck it to my chest

And wrap some fucking tinfoil to my head and to my vest

Walking down the street, my next door neighbors not impressed

I'm a robot and buying ten fags is my quest

Eggsie's gone too far, he thinks he's Robocop

He's covered in tinfoil and he's got matching metal socks

We tried to sedate him but he fucking escaped

The man robot myth starts to escalate

He tries to sell himself standing in curries

But if the police turn up, he runs in a fucking hurry

He tries to plug himself in the mains with his nob

And when he's fully recharged he goes out on the rob

Half man, half machine

What does it mean?

Half man, half machine

What does it mean?

Being a robot in my digital domain

Enter my world, feel my pain

I'm not like other people you might see or you might know

I made love to a BBC micro

Touching on the disk drive, the monitor got hot

I knew from then, I was a motherfucking robot

Bill Gates from Microsoft, Stephen Hawking's voice

And fucking Lara Croft

I built a lab, secret in my loft

And built a special costume that would help me to jack off

I sat there in front of the screen

For many years, this had been my wet dream

Now I've reached it, I'm finally there

Like Terminator being filmed in Aberdare

So alone, when people stop and stare

Like C3PO but with pubes and hair

Robot Love

Robot

Robotic break dancing

Robot

The doctors found a nut

They said he was an head case

'cause he sticks silver and cans on his face

Sucking off antennas and trying to fuck the fridge

And burnt his pubic wig, with the high voltage

I am a robot

My prime directive is to's go to's the shops

And buy's ten fags

Do's you's compute?

He wants to buy ten fags, his destination is the shops

A tinfoil suit and a hat like Robocop

If your ask him then he'll do a body pop

Like Terminator, yeah he just won't stop

Put electrical cable down through the eye of his cock

Plugged it in the wall and gave himself a big shock

The reason that he did it wasn't to give himself pain

Watching Terminator over again and again

Fuck man,..........

Most of the games will be readily available and pre-loaded on these old retro consoles you can buy. You can download the emulators online. Don’t ask me how as I don’t know but it is possible to get all the old games on a handheld or whatever. Appreciate it’s not on the original hardware so visually not the same but you can get thousands of games on one machine if you desired.

My parents bought an Atari 800 xl to "do my homework on". Not sure how that one was supposed to work with no Internet, no printer, no educational software etc etc.

Only one other kid at school had one but thank fully he had a good collection of games I could pirate on my dad's hi fi exchange for a couple of girlie magazines lol.

It blew up in the 90s unfortunetly. Had a hell of a collection of old retro machines at one point. My kid has them all now.

Ahh the good old days when games where for fun.

Nero....next time I visit my mother I shall endeavor to venture into the loft (where a lot of my stuff is in boxes) and determine whether my 64 is still safe and sound, or has succumbed to a leaky roof, pigeons or woodlice.

If it's there and still in pristine working order, I'll swap you for a bottle of Petrus or a signed photo of Audrey Hepburn. 😉
