DISASTER STRUCK MY AMIGA MAGAZINE COLLECTION…
It started with a peaceful vibe—ended with retro panic. Troll down, shelves rattling, Amiga history almost lost!
Saturday evening. A beautiful red sky fades into darkness. I’m finally winding down with some candy and a drink, ready to relax. Everything is calm… until I hear a loud thump.
My favourite Troll ( Hugo ) is lying on the floor.
Little did I know that wasn’t the only thing about to come crashing down.
I Had To Reorganize Over 500 Magazines, To Make Room For Everything After The Collapse.
I ended up making a video about the incident with help from my youngest son, Phillip, who is turning six very soon. Just some of the cleaning up bit tho, in time-lapse mode.
I didn’t manage to take many photos or record much footage before the disaster was under control. Panic definitely took over for a moment, and I kind of regret not documenting more of it.
Time To Make A Movie…
Phillip picked the music and sound effects for the video. He also helped with timing, decided fades and effects. Everything is admittedly a bit funny… but after editing, my ears have had enough of them for a while!
TIME TO HAND OVER THE PAIN TO YOU!
Anyway, enjoy this slightly ridiculous video about my chaotic Saturday night adventure.

Happy Times…
Some good came out of this disaster though, I got around to sort all my magazines and remove duplicates ( which I sold to a guy nearby).
Quite a few duplicates although far more than I expected (54).
Lovely stuff, magazine front covers warms my heart, not as much as game boxes but they certainly got a place too.
