What is Truly Amazing
Hi Paul
I remember Henry .. He would pop in and sort out the problems we were
having with Windows3.1 for Work Groups. Last thing he did was fit P90s
to all the machines before I left in April 1995. At that time there was
Escom in Fareham and a computer store right at the far end of the high
street that had trays of old kit , salvaged from various computers. Man
what I would give for a store like that now.
Paul Jones worked for Portsmouth County I believe and then one day came
into millions of pounds left by a relative. So he bought the best he
could afford and I'm sure that was the case with the boat. He would take
out wealthy clients and use us, his staff, as glorified bar help to keep
clients topped up.
Its incredible how you trip across folk on your journeys through life.
These days bumping into folk means social networking more and more.
So what was I doing on the Amiga while Henry was mucking around with
P90s.... Looking at buying a ZIP drive and seeing if I could stretch
funds to getting the Squirrel. Sadly it never happened as in truth I
never could quite afford it. Not on Paul Jones' salary.
