I get about 220-260 miles per tank (mostly motorway driving) depending on my rage levels.

Sorry to hear it, mate..... but bear in mind that to get a great job you have to leave a not-so-great one first. With your line of work, you'll be sorted soon and then you can think of the redundancy payment as a bonus.

I'm up for it.

I used to carp fish a lot but then I got married ;)

'cos it rains all the time? ;) ;) Disclaimer: my wife is from Praa Sands.

And peeking and poking! Jeff Minter was the llama dude http://www.llamasoft.co.uk/

The guy who coded the Dizzy games gave up games programming and works at Thor Racing!

LOL In Dixons, when I got a bit older I moved onto: edit autoexec.bat format c: save and run away to a safe distance ;)

Outrun had possibly the best in-game music of all time :) Some faves of mine: Home: Binatone "TV game" - Pong anyone? (1978) Elite (the speccy version was the best, followed closely by the Atari ST version.... and yes, I was. And I met David Braben once at an ECTS after-show party) Gauntlet (speccy) - me and a mate once put in 12 solid hours before it crashed on us :( Quazatron (speccy) - Braybrook's finest hour. Daley Thompson's Decathlon and Hyper Sports (speccy) All the Mario games (ninty) - nuff said Zelda (ninty) - as above I never did like C64 games with their brick-like graphics (although the sound WAS better) Arcade: 720˚ - with the off centre joystick Mr. Wardner - completed many times off 10p Insector X - ditto Bubble Bobble, Pacland - class games that even girls liked to play! Mad Dog McCree - light gun video disc game. I used to draw crowds in Newquay when I completed this Konami '88/Track & Field/Hyper Sports - never beaten (I have a special finger technique) Outrun - never did finish it/Power Drift - superior to Outrun Space Harrier - the hydraulic cabinet version Ridge Racer - the first fully textured 3D driving game - used real Honda NSX telemetry captured by staellite. It was ACE! SFII - simply the best fighting game ever. 720˚ (the arcade version with the off centre rotating joystick) was unique.

Good for you :) Now here's some settings for you (sorry I haven't posted them before, but my car's been off the road for a while. HI mode: Set = 64 Gain = 5 Set Gain = 54 This gives me no spikes and a top peak of about 13.8psi.

Archery, cigars and video games.

Pipex, 2.2Mb at £18 per month. Upgraded free from 512k to 1Mb, then upped to 2.2Mb as compensation for the crap customer service they gave me when I had a problem with their free modem.

And new fish as in "a fish out of water".

Ringwood in Hampshire? Dude, these Zummerzet boys have enough problems getting up to Gloucester! ;)

You mean your a tester for EA? Get back in your cage, o lowest of the low. Signed, A. Producer (ex) ;) ;) ;)

LOL.... better stop scratching your a$$ on Friday then and fix 'em!

Talking of Firefox, has anyone else had problems with getting Quicktime movies to play? I keep getting the little green jigsaw puzzle piece which you are supposed to be able to click to get the plug-in, but it won't install automatically and the manual install button just takes you to a Microsoft site where you are presented with a list of plug-ins (and I don't know which one to use as they seem unrelated). Weird thing though - I have the latest version of Quicktime installed from CD.

Bear in mind that the download speed can also depend on the capability/settings of the server you are pulling stuff down from.

Didn't notice Si - do you know how hard it is to overtake a Z in a diesel Citroen BX? ;) If your plate is still the same as the one in your rides section, it definitely wasn't you.

Who wants a race then?

Between 2pm and 3pm, I think. I didn't think I'd be asked so I didn't take a note ;)

#Badger, badger, badger, badger..... mushroom, mushroom! So THAT's what the song's about.
