FloppyFox's World Wide Web Site


Hiiii pals!! Welcome to my small home page on the World Wide Web!

What is FloppyFox?

I'm just a stinky old fox that's living in the past. I don't get kids these days, they're weirdos. I do like the noses, and all things about noses. The ears are very nice too. I am past middle aged, very grey now. Even the nose is turning Atari ST grey. Pleased to meet you!

A fox oozes and secretes various things. I hope you find these things beautiful!

Music

A fox oozed and secreted some music over the past 30 years. It is formed in the mouldy fox studio with a 16 track tape recorder and a lot of blood. It is not formed with AI at present. But one has had a good run and understands it will be time to give way to AI soon.

I wrote this for this video (warning: Youtube link) produced for my good pal Sniff. It is all about the coming nuclear strike on the United Kingdom! Heed the warnings in the music closely.
