!PozChat/Files/njhlog/SpoolFile

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.

Nicola     :yes it is very hard to tell what you are typing as it doesn't I 
           :am trying to have two conversations at a time. One with you and 
           :the other with my sister
Dominic    :Is your sister on ICQ?
Nicola     :yes
Dominic    :I'm guessing she can't be on this, otherwise I would know!
Nicola     :You got an alpha by the way on the materials practical
Dominic    :Quite a coincidence you logged on when you did - I'd only just 
           :switched it on...
Dominic    :Thanks for that - yes - I'd heard from a friend at Trinity.
Dominic    :How was yours?
Nicola     :I got anI got an alpha too
Dominic    :Well done - particularly since you didn't think it went very well 
           :from what I heard.
Dominic    :I heard that in general the marks weren't very good (most people 
           :from Trinity got betas
Nicola     :I didn't think they looked that different but then I didn't look 
           :at them very carefully
Dominic    :It could just be my friends excuse for getting a beta!!
Dominic    :(He doesn't like people who better him)
Nicola     :I am trying to organise a small dinner party at the moment. It is 
           :a bit complicated long distance
Dominic    :What - and with everyone on different chat software!
Dominic    :When are you thinking of?
Nicola     :tonight
Dominic    :I think that should be OK - sounds good. Just trying to think 
           :what I'm doing...
Dominic    :Should be free from about 7pm, I think.
Nicola     :WEre doing it before 7 as I am doing something else at seven
Dominic    :May still be OK - how much before 7?
Dominic    :There's a careers fair somewhere near the market square that's 
           :running 5-7, and I was thinking of going to that - but it 
           :probably won't take that long.
Nicola     :I don't really think it is a good idea for you to come actually 
           :as the timing will be difficult and you have to meet my sister 
           :and some of her random friends.
Dominic    :OK - No problem
Dominic    :We could get something sorted another time...
Nicola     :I'll cook for you some other time
Dominic    :I'd better dash of, actually - I'll probably see you tomorrow!
Nicola     :Yes, we probably will. I got 82% in my materials test
Dominic    :Well done... Still waiting for mine.
Nicola     :Bye then, see you soon.
Dominic    :Anyway - must go
