I find it easy to write terrible code. Comes naturally. I just stop digging
when it does the job. As the French (almost) say, "It's not magnificent,
it's a railway station". 8-]

My 1st machine was an ICL 1900. But once it arrived I *much* preferred a
BBC B. Not a fan of BBC Basic, but it was OK until later machines with
FORTRAN and C compilers came along for later 'Acorn' machines. Still typing
this on a machine running modern RISC OS. :-)

Actually, its a decent day here. Need much less heating than a few days
ago!
