This website contains an archive of files for the Acorn Electron, BBC Micro, Acorn Archimedes, Commodore 16 and Commodore 64 computers, which Dominic Ford has rescued from his private collection of floppy disks and cassettes.

Some of these files were originally commercial releases in the 1980s and 1990s, but they are now widely available online. I assume that copyright over them is no longer being asserted. If you own the copyright and would like files to be removed, please contact me.

The peregrine is one of four species of falcon breeding in the British Isles. It is about 35 cm. to 50 cm. in length with the female being larger than the male. The peregrine can be found in mountains, tundra and coastal cliffs. At one time it was quite common but agricultural chemicals have resulted in its decline and it is now confined to the northern and western coasts of Britain. The peregrine lays three to four brown eggs between March and July in a nest scraped on a rocky ledge or old cliffs, or in another bird's abandoned nest. It feeds on birds, mammals and amphibians, diving at speeds of up to 180 m.p.h. and instantly killing its prey.�*Text*52�Draw�Hilighter   H	�H
