Thanks for watching! Junifractic says "Pwease spred werd abowt GRRetro Shoo". Not sure what she means. Also a couple of things: 3:55 As you've pointed out my bike was an Ultra Burner not Super Tuff Burner. Sadly Raleigh haven't re-released that, so either way their reissued Super Tuff is as close as I can get today :-) 14:04 We appreciate you guys looking out for us saying this product is a scam. We did not buy these from the company that has been accused of that & this video is not affiliated with or sponsored by them. A few companies offer this "novelty item" (as it says on screen). We know we don't really own land in Scotland; our last name isn't really Fractic for a start ;-) But you can use Lord/Lady on credit cards as "name on card" - I have it on my company one. Just a bit of fun & thanks again.

I think it is safe to say that we, your loyal retro subjects, care about you and just want to make sure you have not fallen down the rabbit hole of scams. As long as you understand that it is a 'gag' gift' or 'novelty gift' and imparts no actual legal ownership of land, nor technically allow you to use Lord/Lady in any legal sense (according to Scottish law on the matter), then have fun with it in spirit in which it was given - a fun birthday gift! (congrats by-the-way) Your humble serfs await your next video with open arms and baited breath. :)

You know, as an (currently inactive) member of the original DooM community (people dodicating themselves to that specific game series, or often to games created with idtech1 engine [Doom/Ultimate Doom, Doom 2, Final Doom, Heretic, Hexen & Strife] who kept with the game eafter it started getting old and are still enhancing it and creating 3rd party mods to it, I can't accept the line that Quake is just a continuation of Doom - no sir, Ladyfractic is RIGHT! It does look more like Doom than Quake... Although I couldn't make out the enemies and identify them. I'm willing to bet that the game uses raycasting to draw the 3D environment, while Quake used polygon based "real" 3D. Well, I'm not even expecting more than a raycasting engine being able to run on ZX Spectrum, quite honestly I wouldn't have believed that either if I didn't know better. But here's my guess on why the author calls it a "Quake" port, when it's technically more similar to Doom: There already existed a "Doom port" for ZX Spectrum, and it's one of the best looking ones I've seen on 8-bit machines. Now, Quake was *technologically* a huge leap forward from Doom, like Doom was from Wolfenstein 3D before. This new thing is more similar to Doom's engine in how it works - but the earlier Doom port on ZX Spectrum was really more similar to Wolfenstein 3D's engine. So maybe that's why calling it "Quake port" instead makes sense? Now that's just an entertaining thought - I don't really know - it just looked more like Doom than Quake to me and I started to wonder how one could justify calling it Quake instead of Doom ;) But like I said, I didn't recognize any resemblance to either game when it cames to the enemies, so maybe I'm missing something here ;) Love you guys.

Ah so you are als a lord and lady in Scotland. It will become crowded in my beloved Glencoe 😂The Chia (or garden klcress) seeds made me think of a joke I played on a colleague. We had worked together on two different customers and the first time I’d met him he already had the dirty Microsoft ergonomic keyboard from the late 90s. Disgust looking!!! But he loved the way it feels and is bloody fast in it. I had finally found a clean almost new replacement for him. So when he was on a holiday, I’d removed the space bar and a few more keys and put in cotton balls and those seeds. But it was too much work so it figured if I spray them and just chuck them between the keys they’ll grow too. And miraculously they did! So there were these tufts of garden cress growing from between the keys. And I had bought 20 bags of seeds to other colleagues joined in on the gag. Watering seeds and pushing them in. The week after I heard Alex come in. And from the adherent office I heard a very angry: “Doetjes you EFFING EFFER! This is not funny.” And I walk over trying to be all innocent, and I see the forest of garden cress and I started laughing and did: “that thing is dirty that weeds are growing between the key. And Alex is really angry! So I said let me get my scissors and I’ll fix it for you! And I got the new keyboard. And he was beyond stoked to see a bear mint keyboard. And then could really laugh about the gag. And I thought they old one didn’t work again. But when I removed the cotton balls that prevented some of the keys to go down, all worked!

OpenAI's ChatGPT says: The phrase "knees up" originated in the United Kingdom, and it is used to refer to a lively and energetic party or celebration. The phrase is thought to come from the idea of people dancing and having fun at a party, with their knees bent and moving up and down as they dance. The phrase "knees up" is often used in informal and colloquial contexts, and it is typically used to describe parties or gatherings that are informal and relaxed. It can also be used to refer to parties that are boisterous or rowdy, with people having a good time and letting loose.

Raleigh bicycles were popular here in Boston in the 70s-80s and I had one for a while. They faced stiff competition from Schwinn, who won out for having more variety and styles.

They also had the Super Tuff Burner, which was the same but had the mag wheels rather than spokes. Love the re-release.

I also think the slot car racing is going to wind up being at least two episodes, though. The first one will be Lord and Ladyfractic fighting over who gets KITT... Maybe the same with the second.
