In a sense they are; although I believe that this guy is intending to remodel them and create a movie out of it: |

Sid Meier's Alpha Centauri; every so often I still do a run. A great 4x strategy game with an embedded story and excellent voice acting... the first time that I played it, it blew my mind (I know - that explains a lot; and Tuffers , I'll say it for you: "blow THIS"). The unit designer is very flexible. Wretch does a good playthrough ... (You should know that you can play the game full screen.)

Treatment over: Hurts like f*ck. My legs have been flayed and redressed, with morphine destroying my capacity to think. I believe she's talking to me... |

Its £25 for the dlc on Epic game store. If it goes below a tenner I might go for it. Will you see pissed up arseholes in Kilts getting off at Mount Florida for the game? Hipsters confused at Queen's Park not sure if they're going into Govanhill or Strathbungo? Will I see myself running to the platform at Muirend/Cathcart and screaming CUUUUNTS into the abyss as I just miss the train? |

The boy has had a very good time running around Hever castle and it’s grounds.
He then had a very good time eating in Pizza Express down Brighton Marina. He said hello to every single person who passed our table.

Seriously, I post something that I think is slightly clever and mildly amusing and not a single like?
When did standards get higher here?
I blame Tuff-Tuff.

I've lowered them that much that intelligent work like your post is beyond the stratosphere of understanding to most. Apart from Sheep2. With his books and maps. Probably writes (cooks) up his clients accounts in Latin too. Ipso facto he is a nerd. |

Isn't that beyond your reasonable life expectancy? Probably mine too. The cough I had this morning has turned into a bloody chest infection. I feel rotten. Asthmatic, wheezy one. I'm pretty sure it's just a cold - my first in 6 years - but this is going to reduce my sleep even further. Ho hum. |

Hi all,
Thanks for the best wishes. Mrs D and I went out for a meal at a nice Italian restaurant. Very pleasant. 4 stars.

I, for one, will miss you. Though I suspect that someone who is so bloody-minded as you will live for ever even to just say "fuck you"* to the world. I've had few bits of alcohol; wine, beer and Gin so I may be a bit sentimental. *and of course to bollock the Boxers** for years to come. **Oh err missus |

Great. Now I'm hungry again. I'm having soup later, that should quell the hunger pains? I'm also planning to have burger, egg and chips at lunch to compensate. |
