Having checked, wild guess is wrong.

I must remember; football questions are not appreciated here

Anyway, I will give one more clue just in case, but please post the next question Paul so that things can move along.

The country in question no longer exists as a separate entity.

Oh, my turn for a question!

An early home computer trivia question.

What was the first UK home computer with colour output?

Bilbo1967 · 01-31-2012, 05:26 PM

ZX Spectrum?

SneakySnake · 01-31-2012, 06:10 PM

a Roneo Machine?

Stitchawl · 01-31-2012, 06:33 PM

The Commodore 64?
Just guessing... I didn't think the UK had indoor plumbing until the mid-70's.

We used to crack them using little holes in the concrete and a hammer nicked from dad's shed. At that house we had plenty of trees. Ah the memorries - and the HUGE cane toad that lived at the back door (so he could eat the cat food). The cat wasn't too hungry any way as we were experiencing the tail end of a mouse plague. Oh dear, you just got my life from 1973.

That was going to be my guess (it was my first color computer), but since Stitchawl beat me to it, I'm going with the TRS-80 Color Computer.
