    Retro Mags, WhSmith

    I got some retro mags for a bank holiday; I even went to WH Smith’s and picked them up. I used to get my Crash and Zzap from them back in the day. Saturday would be a Bus ride to town, hanging out at the local computer shop (my mate Stu worked there), then would hang out at the Arcades and playing the games (centipede, classic). I would then pick up the Crash magazine from WH Smith and then walk home (would take me about 60mins, I would always use the bus money in the arcades ) #RETROGAMING #retrocomputing

    I picked these up from WHSMITHS whilst I was in town, loving the zxspectrum cover. I subscribe to the monthly magazine which is an absolute must read, but I always forget to pick up these add-ons (I really should look at getting them via the ipad, but I just love the feel of the pages).
