Accounts of Sir Clive's demise might be greatly exaggerated. Stephen had a 
Christmas card from him and Clive says he's looking forward to them both 
meeting up in the New Year.

The Quad hifi gear dates from When Sir Clive moved into his flat in London's 
Trafalgar Square and didn't have the space or inclination to take it with him, 
so he gave it to Stephen. Must have been soon after he married Angie, the 
former Miss England lapdancer he met in Stringfellows.

There is a new crowd-funded Sinclair Spectrum in the pipeline. Relive Jet Set 
Willy, Chuckie Egg and those other icons of a mis-spent youth. My fave was 
Alien8. Target price £100 and 1,000 retro games will come already preloaded. 
The same form factor as the original, with the 'dead flesh' keyboard. The first 
1,000 will be made in the UK and any profits will go to the Great Ormond Street 
Hospital for Children.
