Eh, my school never 'ad an electronics class, nor a computer neither. Made
programming a bit tricky; we 'ad to write programs on a form and send 'em
off to next county. None of this new-fangled VHDL neither, we 'ad to do
our simulations with paper and pencil.

(All true, as it happens. My school acquired a computer (just the one: a
NorthStar Horizon) in my O-Level year, but before that we really did have
to send programs off to Worcester where someone would laboriously type them
in for you. A week later you got a print out of the results and a roll of
paper tape with your program on it.)
What happened if there was a bug? Did you have to re-send it?
Yes. We proofread our little programs very carefully after the first
bug :-)
