Once I decided to earn money for Speccy upgrade – AY soud chip (was $16 if I’m not wrong). I “opened” my place for friends who want to play video games (for money). Earned it in 2 months I think, but one of the boys steal my cigarette pack collection. All of it – around 40 packs. That was a pity. There was a queue of boys to play.

I realized it when I did salary calculation application for my mother. ZX Basic, it has no any “user interface”. The program was prompting to enter employee’s name, rate and number of hours. Then calculated and displayed in certain order. Nothing special, but remember there was no any computer at the enterprise (chicken factory) at that time (1990). All by hands, on paper and double(triple) checked.
