That's the fella. I'm pleased others think it's green, I'm never sure in that part of the spectrum.

I've still got that 1971 catalogue with the greenish price list. Pretty much they were how you learned what things actually did, as books were very behind in the library - so I remember being quite scared when I jumped into Fred Bentham expecting him to be a friendly, affable fella and discovering a rather grumpy intolerant old grump. He didn't seem to like youngsters at all.

I still have some old RS and Maplin catalogues from last century as they were always an amazing source of info.

About that time, from school I was picking up some hires from Strand and an old gentleman kindly showed me around all the latest kit in their showroom - which included a prototype desk (which some time later morphed into MMS). No idea who he was and all way beyond anything my school could afford but fun to be able to play with a console years ahead of its time.

Maybe he would have been slightly more amenable if you’d just said hello rather than jumping into him?!
