Amin GirasolI'm booked in for #RetrofestSwindon 2026! Can't wait!
It's also another chance to visit the fantastic Museum of Computing.
I'll fly into Bristol and take the train. I'm looking forward to it!
Paula Maddox@electron_greg Thank you, I will do a video.
Not sure if I can get to an event, possibly #Retrofest in Swindon (UK).

yawning_angelHere’s my (later than planned) video on the Retrofest event held in Swindon/organised by
Short Circuit Events.
Follow me as I take some janky video footage of old tech 😅, and marvel at this great event and exhibitors.
