Hello from London

Hi fellow Amiga appreciators,

Like many here I imagine, I had an Amiga in my youth (A500) which played a pivotal part in my life at the time but for whatever reason(s) I left the Amiga behind but always remembered it fondly.

Fast forward to recently, my son was playing Worms on the PS4 which reminded me of Lemmings and triggered a YouTube nostalgia marathon like no other, which only increased my desire to play Lemmings (amongst many others).

I actually have many retro consoles that I could play Lemmings on but I remember Lemmings as an Amiga game so the Megadrive, Super Famicom or PC Engine versions I could play wasn't going to cut it, so here I am a couple of weeks later with not one Amiga but THREE (red LED 500, 600 & 1200)

Anyway, I've rambled on far too long & I have a lot of catching up to do, Goteks, CFtoIDE...

I re-started my Amiga experience for the same reason, nostalgia, just different game (Gods)
