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.

Using a combination of narration and full colour images, Slide Show tells the story of the Coggans and Harraps, as featured in the Yorkshire Television series How We Used to Live. After the death of their mother and the deportation of their father, the Coggan children were rescued from the workhouse by their grandfather, Daniel Harrap, to live in his cottage in rural Yorkshire.

Slide Show follows the children's story from the return of their Uncle Gideon from Lancashire to them finding work in the textile town of Bradley. Along the way they encounter the trauma of everyday lower class Victorian life, giving a true reflection of life in 1845.
