Geordie La Forge scowling and raising his palm to block the Apollo Turfstorm, and smiling and pointing at Mulchy the mower.

A packet of Tesco rosemary crackers with Cookie Monster smashing stuff into his face as the serving suggestion

But who murdered the packet of rosemary crackers, and did it occur well before the first advert break like any that get opened here?

Everything in the old days was sepia and had film scratches duh.

(The old days being the period spanning original footage from dinosaur times through to 90s TV news reports)

There was a whole shrinkflation fuss about them making them more concave a few years back.

Only possible since they hollowed the segments out no doubt. I imagine the old ones would be like trying to bite into a billiard ball.

Lemon chocolate is the best thing and I demand they bring back Safeway lemon royale biscuits.
P.S. I am not a crank.

There's a lot of EPROMs in a clock as it turns out. Some of which are 35+ years old at this point, so I hope the owners/stewards of such things have taken steps to preserve their contents from bitrot (and backup battery juice!)

I've thrown the full quality converted pngs up here for now:

Watch this space for clock hands etc as reverse engineering progresses hopefully 😄

I spent today extracting image data from some interesting eprom dumps...
Figuring out the fairly simple addressing, and shuffling everything around and recombining into a single file that could be decoded as a YUV video frame. 🙂

It's cold outside, but not to worry - I'll fire me clock up for heat.

"Out My Fuck-ing Waaaaay"

I switched over fully to Open Camera for photos earlier in the year after getting infuriated by all the horrible melty image processing the google one does to everything.
Playing with video on Blackmagic Camera now as OC couldn't do Proper Framerates.

I accept I have brought this completely upon myself

Stencilled admonishments with "For more information reread" and a google-translated Maltese approximation crudely added in not quite the same font.

This seemed a lot funnier in my head sorry 😄

As in "don't look too closely or you might decide harbour bridges are too dangerous so everyone will just have to drive the long way round all the global trade that's too important"

Nothing 😄

I don't like the top of that 'a'.
Had to check a couple of other recoveries to be sure it wasn't a recovery error 😆

And the subpage with the wonky Ceefax logo

Our earliest recovery of the new editions is currently "Evening" on the 22nd

A very boring era, but it did briefly give us some of Ceefax's most colourful pages, albeit only visible in-vision at the time 😄

A space wasp got into the cockpit and they caught the controls while flailing their tentacles at it

"Polish a table and put an elbow on it? You might as well set a man trap"

Ok, hear me out, 1st generation locomotive battles like a giant steam Robot Wars

Stunningly reliable too

Come and get your Amstrad bags, they're on offer 'til December.

Still time to make us some festive #TeletextArt, if you want to be featured on Finnish television. 😎

Deadline is shortly before the final week in November.

Anyone who thinks Bond films need to continue on from each other as a series of logically connected sequels should be kept well away from making Bond films anyway.
