Oi, Craig! I'm over here!

By REMARKABLE coincidence, I just looked in here for the first time in ... oh, about 10 years, I think.

I am still alive, just retired from full-time work, and so am reasonably free to get interested in CPCs and PCWs again.

As far as I'm concerned as the last one holding the keys when WACCI folded, I have no objection to copies being scanned and uploaded. Indeed, it would save ME a job! :-)

That said, if the guys are short of any issues, I think I still have a full printed set.

I am already thinking of scanning and uploading copies of my long-dead 8BIT magazine when I do get some free time. If the CPCWiki.org guys would like to host that, I'd be grateful and would put some money into the pot to help that side of things. Please put them in touch if you know them.

I have kept up the WACCI_INF@hotmail.com email address so anyone who wants to contact me can find me there, via the email address I used to post this, or at the new Facebook page I see has been set up. I just sent an Application To Join that so it may be a while before I am visible there.

As I don't have a free Newsgroup account any more and am too tight to start one now, please regard this as my last posting here for AT LEAST another 10 years.

:-)

Love and Fishes to everyone.
