I had a celebratory play on Jet Pac.
I tried setting up my Spectrum but couldn't get it to tune into the TV so had to make do with an emulator.
Happy birthday, my first computing love.

My beloved daughter is 7 today and my beloved (mint condition) speccy is 30 today
How geek am I timing the conception and ultimately the birth of my daughter to coincide with the Speccy's birthday

So congratulations and celebrations all round

I've never seen a speccy in real life
Happy birthday, though! 8bit was definitely the best time in computer history.
@Ian 19 years of marriage? Did you marry with 15?
Congrats! You're starting to lift the overall average marriage time, now.

I too really enjoyed the 8bit era - everything was so fresh and new. Games pushed the envelopes in so many varied ways and just when you thought you'd seen/heard it all something even better came along to impress you all the more. However, I wouldn't willingly return to those days (other than through emulation). Waiting 10+ minutes for a game to load was bad enough at the time - nowadays it would be torture!
Besides, I enjoy coding in GLBasic noways - more so than playing games at times.
