Hello to all, and thank you for activating my account.

My first computer was a Dragon 32, my folks bought it from Boots (yeah, never really understood that one…) for me for Birthday/Christmas combo, in the hopes it was educational…… hmmm… like most I spent hours typing in those listings from the magazines, sometimes even getting them to work, only to begger up the saving to tape bit.

Anyhoo, it’s still alive and still kicking gets a regular work out as I have my favourite game on cartridge (Space Race-Spectral Associates, don’t judge me…). So thought I’d give the old fella some additional hardware and get back to typing out some more of those listings… and maybe I really ought to get some pointers from peeps that know. :D

I didn’t realise until recently! I was tinkering about with my BBC Master adding an SD Card disk etc.. and wondered if anything was around for my beloved Dragon…..and there was!!! Yay! And I just couldn’t believe there were new ports and games available which I literally stumbled upon last night in this forum!

Can anyone say ‘kid in a candy store’!?! :D :D :D
