That was my choice, my initials, first two letters the same.
I quite like this one for anyone who has an ND! Big engine small car.

This ones still up for grabs (if you like your numerals Roman)
I missed that one! Bit pricey but…
Anyone call Sam
Or really push the boat out with price and declaring the best mx5!
Or for half price and I think better.

AMS is Alan Sugar.
I met him briefly when he first started, running a little electronics/hifi shop in Acton.
I believe he owned the company “Amstrad” way back… They made budget tv’s, radios, hi-fi etc…
Rob
Yup. Amstrad stood for Alan M Sugar Trading.
Michael iirc
Wikipedia agrees
Did he have a Reliant at the time? Obviously been upgraded to a Rolls since - one day Rodney!!
I remember Amstrad stereos - they were awful - cheap and nasty with poor sound. Still, made AS pretty rich, didn’t it ?
Lots of flashing lights though…
They made computers too, iirc
I believe that the comedy character ‘Alan Sugar’ was loosely based on the well known entrepreneur and businessman Derek Trotter.
Amstrad started with dedicated word processors
Here’s my home office setup back in 1990 (already by then a couple of years old)

Could be a lass called Sian and she had it spaced as MX Sian’s?
Possibly on a 5 before?
He’s blocked me on Twitter - bit of a sensitive soul!
I had the same or similar set up IIRC! Tractor feed printer which was 9 dot matrix? Floppy disk drive too, happy days!
