[intro sounds]
So, here's the current situation with the office. It's horrendously full, it looks like
a bomb site, there's too much stuff, it's unorganised, mainly due to too many things,
but also through bombing through projects quickly and chucking stuff about, so I'm going
to attempt to organise quickly and succinctly, so that there's some order here.
Octav1us, are you going to help me?
-No.
I think I might get like, a little box shelf to put there. I might get rid of these green
boxes.
-LOOK AT THIS!
-Fucc... This is mine.
Is that the one with the book as well?
You've, you've literally just snapped the case.
-I'm so sorry.
I need to get rid of these boxes, because they're too small, and replace them with proper
Kallax boxes, and I think I'm gonna have to put some of this stuff on my eBay shop and
sell it.
The other problem is this. There's stuff building up in the downstairs area of the office. It's,
it's an issue
*slam*
and if you look at the inside of my car, yeah, there's more items in here, that need to go
in the office. It's an issue, so we're gonna have to take your car. Alright?
-ok
We're gonna go to Homebase or B&Q? Let's go to one of those.
-ok, let's go.
Good.
OK, we're at Homebase, in Norwich, let's see what they've got.
This is what I need. One of these.
Look at that guy peering at the top. Look at him. Look, look, just peering out. He's
like the King of the Castle.
What's going on?
-Well nothing
Well, is he gonna help?
-He's a doorstop
But how much is he?
-I don't know *laughs* I didn't bring it to you, so you'd buy it for me. I just thought
it was quite funny.
No, I need a doorstop for the office.
Got a dinosaur!
-ahaha
Right, we're going to B&Q now because, their selection was crap.
Why have you got a saw?
So maybe we'll get some of these, and a few of these boxes.
OK, got a trolley full of items. Including some bog roll.
[MUSIC]
But, errrm, lost Octav1us. I think she's still in B&Q.
*lumps*
there we go.
OK, Octav1us has made a start. So the plan is... eugughhh... the plan is to empty out these green boxes,
replace them with the bigger cubes, and then categorise each cube by a particular console
or system or use. So they provide a bit more space, and they'll look a bit nicer than these
green boxes, and then we can, we can sort all this out...
-I found a Nature Valley bar!
YAYYYYYYY!
Are you just chucking stuff. This is what I'm trying to avoid.
-Well in that case, so, Games.
Right.
-Joyticks, mouses......
something.
No, but we need like Commodore, and Sinclair.
-Eugghhh
And Sega, and..
-OK, well this is the Commodore box.
OK, Commodore, good.
*clunk*
So, we've got quite a lot of loose adaptors.
-So, what, you want Commodore adaptors to have their own box?
No, I want Commodore stuff in one box.
-But, how are you going to fit all the Commodore stuff in one box?
Well, then, if it overflows, then we'll have two Commodore boxes.
*crunch*
-See, it's already filling up.
Right, I'm gonna go get myself a cup of tea, and have a sit down, OK?
-Can you turn Vibes Cartel back on?
No, I'm gonna chill out. You just.
-Alexa! Play Vibes Cartel.
Ahhhh.
How's the errrm, how's the storage situation going?
-Well, I don't really know what I'm doing. I mean, every time I think I know what I'm
doing. You come busting in and go "No! Don't do that".
Yeahhhhhh! Yeahhhh.
Oooh, look at them. They're Mega Drive pads.
-Yeah, this Quickshot one is realy nice.
Let me zoom in.
-Well, I'll bring it towards you.
Well, let's do that. I've zoomed in now. It's like you're close already.
-That is pretty awesome.
That is good. That's a Competition Pro.
-Yes.
Nice!
-Magic Mushrooms?! I'll play that!
Woaaaaaaah yessss!
-That's awesome.
I mean, what is that?
-It's a BBC Micro game.
Is it about Magic Mushrooms?
-I hope so.
Right, we've created some space down here, which is quite impressive. I haven't seen
part of this floor for quite a while!
I mean, there's still quite a lot over there, but, it's getting there, isn't it?
-Very slowly, yeah.
Yeah, let's get back to it.
We've had Yo Sushi. Now I'm going to move this, out of this corner, and try and put
a double unit in there, to create, more worktop and more general space.
The shelves are built, and I've put these half shelves in, to put consoles on the top.
Octav1us is playing Amid Evil.
-You ABSOLUTE kok sucking CREST.
The room's coming on well. We've got a nice space here.
Look at all this space!
-Flappy wanquer.
Ohhh yeah. I think I might put up a shelf. I found this Ikea shelf in the cupboard.
-No luv. No, no m8. No, no no no no. No! No! Fuq off!
I might put a shelf up there.
-Absolute, stack of desks, in a warehouse.
It's so early that the birds are singing.
Gooooodddddd.
It's now about 4 o'clock in the morning, but, as you can see, all these boxes are now larger
boxes, and we've got... y'know, there's like, random joystick box, there's a Sega box, and
there's a Commodore box.... and it's all organised. Much easier, so when I'm doing projects, when
I'm making videos, I can just pull whatever I need out, and I should know where it is.
Over here, we've got, my Sanyo silver T.V. which is there, Yuji Naka below it, a few
stacks here and there. This hasn't changed much. Over here has been, kind of compressed
and pushed to the side, so all this needs, kind of sorting through and somethings need
to be made into videos. Some things need to be sold, but there is much more space there
now. Much more space. Much better.
If we pan round, we've got these shelves. These shelves are untouched. Over here, I've
put a Sinclair QL there, with a matching cub monitor, because I acquired that recently.
That's from my car. The desks are clear, I like to keep these desks clear, as much as
possible, so that I can just get projects on the go. So, that is nice.
Over here is an IBM NetVista, which I will be making a video about soon. That's also
been brought in from my car.
All these are standard. You know. Spectrums up there. Lovely job. Systems up there.
Over here, pretty standard. Over here', I've put a massive plant, and inside, is one of
Retro Princesses', or Sew8Bit, her Zool; which I bought at PlayExpo Margate, and he quite
likes it in there.
We've got a tiny T.V. down here. Tiny T.V. which can display messages. It's... what is
it? It's a Tivoo. Tivoo. Tivoo T.V. which displays pixellated messages. But I haven't
set it up yet.
Over here, I've got, hohoooo. I've got one of the T.V.s from Bad Influence. One of those
Philips machines. Bad Influence for anyone who doesn't know, was a kids' computing/gaming
show from the early '90s, and they used these T.V.s, and they have good picture quality,
and I bought this off GamingMuso for £50, and now it's sitting here, next to my Alba
stereo, and this new kind of, mini, Kallax setup, with two old Ikea stools in front,
for sitting purposes.
Which is nice.
These cupboards are unchanged. I've got a few more stickers on here, which I got from
ZombieWorkshop at PlayExpo Margate, again.
I packed a few more things in there, but nothing major, and errm, that's about it. Oh, I put
that new shelf, I put that up there, and put my rather unique Mega Drive on there, and
an Amiga 1200, and an IBM 'clicky' Type-M keyboard.
Which is nice!
and that's it!
That's the new 'tidied' office, which I think, you will agree, is much better than it was.
Ahhhhhhhh, I'll be able to work again, and create some new videos. The first of which,
I think will be, on that NetVista, or it might be on these VTech machines down here. Or maybe
the Dick Smith Wizzard! Which also came in from my car... yes, yes.
Many spectacular items. Ahhhhh. Out here is still a bit of a mess. You can see some of
the boxes, I've kind of booted out. All this. All this rubbish here. This is going in a
bin, or in my car to take away, which is the next stage of the operation. So I can't go
and get sleep just yet. I have to do a bit more. But then I can rest.
But, this is much nicer. I am pleased with this. I am happy.
So... so, so, so, I might get some RGB lighting, just around here, just to make it a bit better.
I've got this old RGB thing behind there, which does do a bit of, kind of nice coloured
lighting, but yeah, I need some more. To make it look, like a proper Youtube channel! Because
all they have these days! R G B.
[DISCO]
OK, so, I have got myself.
*scraping*
Some LED strips to put behind the desks over there, to try and create a nicer atmosphere.
Also, a Smart Power strip to go with Alexa, to make things a bit easier, so let's install
those.
So, I think I'm going to put one strip, running from this corner, behind this desk, along
the back of the desk, around here, if possible; and then, another strip, just running along
the top of, that, cupboard.
I'm gonna have to move some stuff out of the way. I've already moved all this from underneath
the desks. But, urrggghhh, should have done this beforehand.
Right, right, check this. Check this. Alexa turn RGB to blue.
YEEEAAAAASSSSSS.
Alexa, turn RGB to orange.
Ohhhh, yeahhhhhh!
Alexa turn RGB to yellow!
Oh, I love it. I love it.
and plus, this TV is hooked up to the power switch. So I can say, Alexa, turn off Office
Power Switch Four.
"Did you mean Office Power?"
Oh, I need to, it doesn't matter. It doesn't matter.
I need to give each of the power switches their individual labels, then I can control
this T.V. and hook a console up to it, and just bask in the magnificence!
Awwwww, yeahhhh, look at that!
Ahhhh, 3 arcade machines!
Alexa! Turn RGB to blue!
Awwwwhahahaaa. Galaga has run out of power. Let me turn that back on. Yeaaaah, we go!
Yessss, that's what I'm talking about.
Ohhh yeah.
Ohhhh yeaaaa.
Good times.
Alexa, turn Office Power, off.
