W/C 2nd March 2026
As you are about to hear I went somewhere a bit special this week, and it took me right back to early 1983, as I approached my twelfth birthday.
At that stage I was desperately waiting for the day to arrive, because I was hoping to get a ZX Spectrum (16KB) and join the cyber-generation. In preparation, and as a way of increasing my sense of anticipation and excitement, I had been reading, and re-reading the couple of computer magazines that I owned, devouring anything I could and planning what I would use the mythical machine for.
Within the pages was an advert for the Spectrum, a full size image on the actual machine in all its glory. I remember this vividly, because as the day approached I had taken to sitting cross-legged on the floor, typing commands into the keyboard, and imagining how my life as a top programmer was going to pan out.
Stay safe.
I'm Nearly Famous - Cliff Richard
Therapy For Me (or TFM as I now refer to it) is a bit of an audio curiosity. It started out as a mechanism for me to clear my head, with the hope that by saying stuff out loud it would act as a little bit of self-help. It's remains loose in style, fluid in terms of content and raw - it's a one take, press record and see what happens, affair.
If you want to keep in touch with TFM and the other stuff I do then please follow me on Facebook, Insta, Twitter or Patreon. Thanks for getting this far.
