Electronic Playing

Assembled and plugged into bread board:
Using heat gun to put down 8255 and crystal seemed to work ok.
The '0603' capacitors were as difficult to hand solder as expected. You can't see 0.5 x 0.2 mm well. You pick them up with tweezers, too much pressure they are gone, try to move with end of hobby knife, it flexes, gone. 
Now still being a wimp. If it doesn't work, is it soldering? is it circuit? is it components? is it breadboard wires? has it got bootloader?
I'll get to it tomoz, had to try fixing a DVD drive in a telly tonight.
