That bag is certainly living its life. They haven't used that "A fond la forme" strapline in ages ("full throttle fitness" I guess would be the translation). Reminds me of when I was browsing windsurfing gear there 25+ years ago!MatGubbins wrote: ↑Tue Feb 28, 2023 11:17 am
It's a bag-for-life from France, something to do with sportswear goods. No Francis Morgan Ayodélé Thompson or Daley Thompson to you matey, no lucozade or running shoes to be seen here.

I was wandering the streets of Haworth today, and saw this rather incongruous zeddy in the window of a chocolate shop! Had a crack with the owner who cut his teeth on it as a youngster, and who recognised me as a fellow computer nerd as I gawped at it. Doesn't muck about either - he's got velcro on the back rather than blu-tac for the RAMpack!

Ha brill! If he's reading, I do think there's a market for zeddy or 48K shaped chocolate bars.

It's a real, working ZX81 but with the insides made of chocolate. And considering inflation over the 40+ years, it's actually cheaper than the one in 1981.
