ABUG Canada West Meetup #19 May 26 2020 - Socially Distanced for Covid

Post by klintworth »

First time we've met together without an Acorn computer in sight!! :shock: It was a lovely sunny day in North Vancouver, and Ed was dressed for winter!

Ed shedding his many winter layers!!

Ed had brought his car in for service, so we met together for a coffee and exchanged useful items. Ed gave me the following - 2 x 6522 VIA chips and some Bondic UV adhesive (I've had trouble mending plastic breaks before).

6522 VIA Chips - most useful!

During our (brief) visit to the UK in March I was able to pick up some A3000 chips for Ed. All untested, but hopefully good! A 1meg expansion, a 4Meg expansion and a set of RiscOS 3.1 chips.

Ed wanted ketchup with his chips!!! :oops:

Finally we had to take the traditional selfie to mark this socially distanced ABUG

Thanks, Ed, for the coffee (my reward for finally beating him in the HSC round!!) Looking forward to the next time we meet when we can inaugurate his new Acorn Den in Squamish!

Looks like a great meeting despite Covid ......

You two make Canada seem even more welcoming than I found it a few years back when I was over for a graphics conference.
