Day 347 - Hands up if you remember Amstrads, Tandys and the Mackintosh SE!


When I worked at what used to be called Cornhill in the 00's, the whole company was still run off a 1960's warehouse sized mainframe which had its own giant building somewhere in Guildford. 

We still used monochrome monitors for most of our work.

Day 337 - For the good of my health...

Crowdfunding for a Book is now live!



As the 365 days is nearly at an end, I intend to put all the drawings in a book and need your help to do so.

Each backer will receive a professionally (and locally) printed A5 book, with a picture a page, printed in black and white with a printed and laminated cover and as backers of this first edition will see their name in print in the 'supporters' section. All this, plus postage within the UK, is included in the £10 pledge fee.

For those of you who are new to crowd funding, it is called a 'pledge' because you are pledging or promising to pay the £10 in the event that the project meets its funding goal. If I do not gather enough backers to go through with the project (in the timescale set by Kickstarter) you will not be charged a penny.

The deadline to contribute to this project is 13th September and the delivery date for books is the 3rd week of October (international post may take longer).

If you would like to back this project and receive your own copy, please use this link to go to the Kickstarter pledge page.

Update: I received some really good news within a few hours of launching the project;

It has been selected as a 'Staff Pick' by Kickstarter and has been tweeted and featured on the website by them! I must be doing something right....

As a Footnote to this post the builders on the site with scaffolding nearest to me all started making monkey noises today (06/08). I assume someone shared the blog with them, so I'd like to offer a Warm Welcome to my Newest Fans. After all a page view is a page view. Have a nice evening Monkeys! :)
