In the 80s during university for my Engineering degree I had to use a commodore VC 64 which had exactly 64KB total. Half of that was used for the OS and the text program. That left approximately 30KB for the text itself which left me with a very fragmented text to be saved on an external 540 KB drive. If I remember correctly it was ~6 pages of text per file so roughly 25 text files. If I went for more pages it created a storage overflow and the whole text entered was lost.

Nowadays nobody cares about file size or stuff like that.
In 1980, I saw an evening class on computers advertised, and having never seen a computer, I thought it sounded very exciting. It turned out that there wasn't actually a computer, but the lecturer would take our work along to an off-site computer, and feed it in each week. I forget the details, (I seem to remember drawing some flow charts), but I only attended a couple of times! :D I remember using a Commodore a few years later, as well as a couple of Acorn-built computers, one of which was the BBC Micro, which had a total memory of 128KB apparently :D :thumbsup:
Nice Lambsfoot :) :thumbsup:

I realy like this old Lambs foot I got at the show,as soon as I saw it it reminded me of my GEC in construction, fit and feel.

You have no idea how annoyed I am with myself after scratching the blade sharpening it.:confused:


































I don't think your Lambsfoot is very old, I'd guess it was made within the past few years. You might be able to improve the appearance of the scratches by polishing the blade with some Flitz :thumbsup:

Ed, your “snow” belly looks great, but I hope that’s a typo and not foreshadowing things to come. 🤣
I like that wharncliffe trapper, too 👍
Thanks Bart. 😎👍
I don’t know about that. Aren’t you a track coach?😁
Yep, but I wear the whistle…I’m not running the laps! 🤣
Eureka Jack again today.
