I remember the Buggles clip - still got it somewhere amoungst 2 or 3 disks 
full of music.

Anyone remember the name 'the Micro Kid' - he seemed to write alot of beeb 
music.

I wonder who he was and where he is now!

P.S. I met Gary Partis at an Acorn show one year. I had a broken leg and he 
signed my plaster!
