Unfortunately, around 15th July 1990, one of my brother's friend, Richard accidentally spilled a ice lolly onto the keyboard and then the computer made some noises. So, its looks like the life of Amstrad CPC 464 is over (damaged) and my dad threw the Amstrad CPC 464 away, after he had tried to take the computer to the same shop where my dad bought the Amstrad from, but they no longer sell or repair these computers anymore. During that time, Moley, my neighbour give me a comic that comes with the newspaper "The Sunday Times" called "The Funday Times" - No. 45 as she always gives the comic to me after she buy her newspaper.<br>

I was very upset because that was one of my favourite home computer out of the other Amstrad CPCs range and I become attached to it, as I love this computer so much, one of the reasons I love this computer so much is, while the game is loading from cassette, I read the game instructions / manuals or make myself and my family a small snack with a cup of tea or talking, laughing, pulling funny faces with my two brothers while my parents sit down on the settle behind us, watching us having a good time. I got used to and I was loving it every minute of it, using it as a good thing, while some people moan because it takes a long time to load a game from cassette e.g. 3D Grand Prix. In a matter of fact, I was very clever when it comes to on paper, except there is only one big problem about me - that is simply I cannot speak or pronounce any words at all, so I use this computer with games / programmes that come with the computer as a learning exercise / teaching aid for myself and it worked.<br>

Worst of all, my oldest brother, James gave a whole collection of computer games, accessories that come with the computer to his friend, Michael for free behind my back. I keep wishing that he didn't it, as I can't stop thinking about the good times I have with the CPC 464. Even now, I still remember the good times, a collection of computer games, how it help my life. I guess it stays in me (memories).<br>
