‘Where did you get the computer?’ I asked.
‘ My mate gave me it, but it’s locked anvourited I can’t get into it
but it's old and the shops won’t repair it, '
‘You can have it, and maybe you can do something with it? And I travelled home by taxi, clutching the computer, and convinced I could get it working.
I entered the house I went straight to the spare bedroom and set the computer up. looked at the tapes to start the computer, but it needed a password and also a special tape to boot start it.
I phoned my sister house phone.

‘No I have given you everything and I let out a disappointment moan,’ and went back to try again to make the computer work, but after a while I gave up.
