For ages I have wanted a VIC20 but I'm running out of space, so I had the genius idea of fixing up a rather rough looking one, having some fun with it and then using it to raise money for a superb charity! Win win for everyone!
Join me as see what I've actually bought! Clean it up, buy some stuff for it and have some fun before giving it away for the fantastic Befriending Scheme.

Stay tuned to my channel and socials for details on the auction which will go live prior to @MoreFunRetro live stream on October the 19th, where you will have the chance to bid on loads of Commodore items (and a mystery one too). There will be loads of guests and stuff going on all day whilst raising as much money as possible for the scheme!
