BeebMaster - Shows


Shows

Over ten years of travelling around to classic computer conventions since my first in March 2009. Whenever I've been somewhere, I'll report back here, so you can find out what I've been doing.

Six weeks later, I was in Wakefield for the annual RISC-OS show.

In September I was in Huddersfield for Acorn World. What a busy 2009!
