My Collection
I have an expansive collection of Acorn computers, including machines before and after the BBC micro and a multitude of Acorn and third-party add-ons and peripherals. There's also a bit of room here for a few related topics like what I do at Christmas and where I keep it all, as well as items which help me with my Beebery despite not being strictly Acorns!
