2009 Antique Hunt, Noseybonk, and Xmas tat
Posted by Ashens on January 1, 2009 at 18:21 pm
Hello! It’s 2009 now and I’m closer to being dead than ever before. As a direct result I’ve decided to try and track down a couple of bits from old British computer magazines, before I’m not alive enough to search for them any more. Irritatingly I had all the magazines in days gone by, but was forced to dispose of them in a house move years ago.
SO! If any of you fine people happen to have any of the following please drop me a line via the e-mail link in the top-right there. (I don’t need access to them physically – scans would be great.)
- The last ever issue of Amiga Action magazine (Issue 89, December 1996, Egor in Toyland on the coverdisk). Specifically I want a scan of the “Son of Boggit” adventure game help section from it, which was less a tips section and more a thinly veiled rant.
- Any issues of Public Domain magazine, an obscure Future Publishing magazine which dealt with the freeware and shareware of the time for Amiga, ST and PC. There were only ever about 12 issues produced. (I’m trying to track down an incredibly inept Atari ST demo which was reviewed in it – I can’t remember the name and nobody else has any recollection of it. If I can find the review I should be able to finally track it down.)
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Ta.
Further news! My Noseybonk appearance on the BBC’s Screen Wipe is available online via the magic of YouTube. It’s at the very start of the episode, but I strongly suggest you watch the whole thing as it’s excellent. Cast your eyeballs here fella:
And finally the Christmas tat video I made has been online for a while, so here it is:
