    Hi all. Apologies for the lack of video content this month. I've been pre-occupied with family matters all month, trialling my daughter at a new school, and many of the other things that crop up during life. This video was supposed to be a "quick filler" video put out a couple of weeks back, but it has taken me more than 2 weeks to edit it down the 6 hours of footage, produce the subtitles, etc! Unfortunately the office is still an absolute state from it! But here we are! Anyway, I hope you are all well, and that the chaos in this video distracts you from the chaos in the world, if just for a while. Much love, Peter.

    Yes a barcode battler video. I had one of those things and it was always so mysterious and felt like it was limitless. The marketing actually worked on me and I still believe it's as good as they made out

    Hey Peter. To use the Strategic Commander in anything above Windows XP you will need the controller software I wrote quite a while ago. It's called Strategic Engine v1.3.
    Needs a bit of an overhaul but is still working in Windows 10.
    I also have the original Microsoft drivers if you need a copy. Just flick me a PM.
    Cheers, Phil.

    OH MY GOD the Mr. T In My Pocket!! (That sounds bad). I cannot believe someone else had one of those! My friend Alistair would constantly repeat the “shutup, fool” button whenever anyone tried to speak to him.

    Oh fun times.

    well wioth the new lock down i think your going to have plenty of content, dam! i'd be happy if that was like cassette tapes of music but sadly its spectrum games but yessh, mind you there are plenty of uk ppl tht might want that one or need a lebel/tape upgrade, also i think LGR is safe for unboxing vids as well you've run out of camera space, run out of space for stuff and the assiant has broken the lighting, yep i think he's safe
