Amandas Diary
Not much of a diary this time or so I'm ordered. Instead I'm to be a glorified Editorial because I've been told I waffle and swear too much. Listen, it's not easy with a voice like Mandy from East Enders. OK I must apologise to the bloke who now checks our tapezine before his son reads it although he seemed more annoyed at being dragged to every boot fair! I just wish we could put out two issues that were more or less standard, Dave keeps changing things right under my very nose. Still, my idea to put all the credits in a loader screen is alot better than using up valuable memory.
Now that we are featured on PD POWER's cover tape we can stop trying to be a complete magazine with masses of different features and just concentrate on being a collectors irreverent handbook type of thing. You wanted more reviews than anything else so here you are! Memory permitting we'll still slip in the odd weird section.
We've been struggling to aquire a QL in the last few weeks. We always seem to be seconds too late when ringing up ads. I reckon we've got a rival in Nottingham and I'm going to break his/her legs when I catch up with them. And while I'm on that subject maybe someone out there would like to sell me a Sam Coupe, a Speccy +3 and a ZX81. I'm only a dole-girl at the moment but I don't mind going without food if it means I can get my hands on these sexputers.
I'd like to start a competition page but what with this tapezine being distributed by various PD libraries all over Europe it would probably be unfair to those who will receive this issue sometime in 1997! So tell you what, the person who writes from farthest away can have a copy of ELITE 48K.
