    I told him that I wanted to launch a make-up range, but it was his idea to make everything miniature.

    Have you ever wondered if Clive was compensating for something, shrinking everything so that it was small?

    I wonder if she'd be more amenable to restoring his computer empire, given Amstrad dumped the Sinclair line after the +3 I can see that a new area of expansion might be in mobile devices using a linux base on top of some custom ARM (or low power Intel) hardware doing some groundbreaking (and hence USP) 3D display (akin to what Nintendo want to do with the 3DS).

    If they had the will they could actually go back to the pioneering days and design something in a few months if you cut the red tape of modern development processes and used soon-to-be common off the shelf parts (latest ARM, latest displays etc). (IMHO Microsoft did this with the initial XBOX 360 design to beat the PS3 and it had heat bugs etc but it didn't do them any harm in the long term and saved R&D required for something like the Cell processor which again IMHO became an anomally compared to the now common programmable GPUs doing the same tasks).
    Make it open source, i.e. the new "BASIC" for users to allow creativity, and I would hope they'd be on a winner and have a large creative userbase.

    I guess they could call it the Sinclair +3D....

    [EDIT]The irony of using ARM didn't wash over me until I finished the post. Maybe they could rekindle some sort of nostalgic cross marketing incentive![/EDIT]

    Very amusing ! All this 'hes my soulmate' ? Would she say that if he worked in the local cornershop ?

    The picture of them together looks embarassing.

    But to be fair if i was a multi millionaire and approaching 70 i would be happy as hell to have my own gold-digger so i dont blame Clive.

    Same as the Old Boss

    According to The Mail, squeeze Elaine Millar previously ran Sinclair Research

    Ugh, that article really is the sort of vile shit-stirring the Daily Mail is famous for. Notice how the only person with anything nasty to say about his current relationship is the anonymous 'friend'.
    the former Miss Bowness has hired a publicist and recently posed in revealing lingerie pictures for a national newspaper.
    That would be the national newspaper known as "The Daily Mail" then. Who have just reprinted the same photo, presumably to emphasise what a shocking salacious photo it is.

    But for all-round mock-indignation points, this sentence has to be the winner:
    They’ve been together nearly 25 years. Had they been married, it would have been some sort of anniversary.

    Check out the topmost comment:
    "Mmmm, Wonder what she sees in this older multi-millionaire?"


    I would say that this question answerres itself.

    That's just the Paul Danials / Mrs Merton quote. A good quote badly overused.
