Chapter 6 of my serialized memoir, covering the transition from Software Projects to Odin Computer Graphics in 1985, is now live.
In this chapter, I find myself in hot water with the police for stealing my own trousers. And a routine car park handoff triggers something nobody expected.

In 1983, I was twenty years old, a university dropout, and back in my mum's house in Barnsley with no plan.
I had a Sinclair Spectrum, a cassette recorder, and a bedroom so cold my fingers went stiff at the keyboard. I was teaching myself Z80 assembly language from disassembled game code, in the dark, at midnight, hoping something would come of it.
Something did.
Chapter 4 of my serialized memoir is now live. The Zoo: a hosiery factory, an earthquake, and the interview that started it all.

Calling all retro-computing archivists! I am searching for a 1983/84 recruitment ad for Software Projects (of Manic Miner fame).
I started there in Feb '84 and want to include the original listing in my memoir. I’ve checked the usual suspects (Sinclair User, PCW, PCG) without luck. It might be a small "Call for Authors" footer or a classified in a weekly like Popular Computing Weekly.
Any leads? Chapter 4 drops this Monday, March 23.
