My very first computer was a Timex Sinclair 1000

Mine too. Here I am on the right, with brother martyk on the left, in 1983, opening our new Timex at Christmas! Please note the hip 70's mirrored vertical blinds.

I see you had a digital watch too. Was it red LED that you pressed a button to read? My first computer was a Timex Sinclair too. I still have it around here somewhere. I remember typing in programs from the monthly magazine and wishing I has the optional 4K add-on memory module that attached to the back.

If you have kids, I suppose they get a kick out of that pic. I do!
