Bought my Dad a spectrum for his 60th birthday.

My Dad's 60th in a few days time, and I sent him a 48k rubber key, and some CD-R's with games on, amongst over things.

How times have changed, wasn't that long ago he bought me one for Christmas!

Couldn't send him the manuals though, cos it went Special D. and had to be under 2kilos.

    Lovely idea!!!

    He bought me one for christmas too, but I'm afraid he wouldn't be too keen on receiving one himself...

    I think if I gave my dad a speccy he'd throw it at me... or give it to the dog ;)

    My 51 year old father wouldn't know how to plug in a Speccy, let alone use it.

    But my stepfather (age 40) would appreciate an Atari 2600 - well he doesn't appreciate the Gameboy Colour I gave him when I brought my Gameboy Advance..

    Nice one :)

    Now all you need to do is teach him to code and we can have some proppa RETRO games !!!

    Tell him I want something with a Spitfire, and a Lancaster (_+ (Jk)

    Good Man!!!

    Nothing wrong with a bit of speecie as a pressie!

    Don't you think it's great that a machine from the 80's can still generate such interest!

    Long live the speccie!
