The Sunday Papers – 28/04/24
Here’s your roundup of nice things to read and watch this Sunday.

- Dominik Diamond reminisces about his love for the “painfully uncool” Amiga. The ST’s glorious function keys even get a mention.
- Steve Norman is discovering Batman: The Movie on the ST. A great article with lots of nostalgic memories and anecdotes.
- Gears of Games continues to play those terrible ST games so that you don’t have to… but hang on, Darkman isn’t terrible after all!
- Steve over at Atari Crypt dives into new monochromatic ST puzzler Tenebra.
Do you like action? Do you like fighting?
Then boy, do I have the game for you!
Metro-Cross
Great little arcade conversion (and we know how rare those can be).
A Year of Wildflowers #6, 7 and 8



Blackthorn, spurge laurel and hazel. First one spotted at Middleton Lakes, the others at Oversley Wood.
A Year of Wildflowers #5 – Lesser Celandine


Went for a lovely walk around Oversley. Spring is officially here now these beauties are out.
A Year of Wildflowers #4 – Early Crocus
Spotted just outside the Weoley Castle ruins in Birmingham. Another non-native, but seeing as things are a little slow this time of year, I’m counting it.
A Year of Wildflowers #3 – Primrose

What’s Italian for third?
A Year of Wildflowers #2 – Snowdrop
Found just outside of Redditch at St. Leonard’s Church in Beoley. They have a Snowdrop Festival here every year.
You know winter’s almost done when you see these beauties. I found these at St. Leonard’s Church in Beoley just outside of Redditch.
Apparently, snowdrops are not a native UK wildflower (but I don’t care, I’m including them anyway). Although we tend to see them as a sign of the coming spring and therefore symbol of hope, back in the day it was considered a portent of death to see a single flower.
