Someone at work mentioned this last week. I thought Tesco had leased it from the council, not the other way around.
It's been closed since Feb '24... I didn't realise it was that long ago since I'd last used it ๐

At least you get interesting suggestions.
All I get are notifications suggesting I'd like breakfast cereal based on my recent order.
My recent order was for a keyboard, a craft knife, and spare blades... ๐ค
This is the one I've got. It's pretty small, but provided the figures are detailed I'll be happy.

I played UFO on an accelerated A1200 and it still chugged at times.
When I got a PC (Pentium 100), it ran so fast it was amazing!
Keep meaning to play Xenonauts as that's meant to be similar.
I know that feeling... ๐

Finished it on the Amiga, and then played it on PC a while later, and was amazed at the amount of animation (smoke and fire were static on the Amiga).
Played the sequel, but never got very far with it.
Aye, lugging the tower and CRT monitor, and then trying to find somewhere to set up.
Good times.
That reminds me of carting the PC over to a friend's for some LAN gaming.

I won't be spinning any stops for a while ๐
I went from 50 to 70, and I'm now over 1000 items over ๐

Only just saw this.
When I saw that photo of Hello Kitty in the Gundam suit, I thought Samurai Pizza Cat! ๐
Good morning!
Nothing exciting unfortunately.
Washing, finish laying the flooring in our out building (had some work done a short while ago, and it's taking ages to finish). Then into the loft to hopefully find some paperwork I've been looking for.
Then some gaming if there's time.
I've never been bothered about water. When I was a kid I always went swimming in the sea. Couldn't dive though, and still can't!
I may have had similar dreams since, but I don't remember them. My missus remembers everything from her dreams. Me, just the two.
I was at the coast at the end of a pier and everyone was diving in to the sea. I dove in and when I tried to swim to the surface it just seemed to move further away. Woke up feeling like I should be gasping for air, but wasn't.
I don't remember most dreams. That's 1 of 2 that were most vivid.
๐ Happy birthday! ๐
And thanks for the raids over the weekend.
Managed to get a 93% shiny! ๐
Which tour is that from ?
Most of my tour t-shirts are in the loft.
And my Bon Jovi ones are from 1995/96 (Crossroads/These Days).
If you do, High Potential and All the murders in the building are worth a look. I like it for all the Star Wars content.
Does the ๐ imply ๐๏ธ๐ซ๐บ ?
A few people at work use them and keep trying to get me to sign up, but I have no need.
That's one of the best songs on there!
I used to look out for the vehicle that had that playing and just drive around listening to it ๐

The others are fun to sing along to. This one, I can't help laughing at. Especially the bit about being green ๐
Suffice to say this was promptly purchased and added to the BLR play list.
Have you heard the latest one, Bedtime Thoughts ?
I'd probably have someone sing Hostiles on the hill.
"You are like cinnamon!"
(part of the chorus to that is my wife's ringtone).
I had this on the CPC464. Brilliant game, and had so many hidden features. I remember discovering that picking up the kitchen sink let you pick up ships! And that if you stepped through the wrong door of the orbital base, it was a long way down!
Finished the original, but not the sequel.
So sorry for your loss, and sending condolences and hugs to you and your family.
She sounds like a right character. The sort of person that would put a smile on your face regardless of the situation.
You and I have a very similar sense of humour ๐
23.08.2025 20:30 โ ๐ 1 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 1 ๐ 0Yep, I found that when visiting the wife a few months ago.
Ended up taking my own food.
And that a lower AC is better...

I remember having a disagreement with a friend over how it's pronounced many years ago ๐
I have a pair of those pads, and a pair of the originals (that used to plug in to the soundcard).
Also have a Sidewinder X5 mouse and X6 keyboard. Still using the keyboard, as I like the detachable keypad. Showing it's age though.
