Hi Nev, If it's not too many disks I'll offer my services to dump them for you. I've got a 3" drive with a PC adapter and SAMdisk will dump them to a suitable format. Or you're welcome to borrow my hardware and do it yourself, depending on how sensitive the contents of the disks are.
The output images can then be used in a Spectrum emulator or with Pro-Dos in SimCoupe, or just written back to a 3.5" disks if that's of any more use.
