Imagine my shock, I'm looking through the forums, and MIST has a whole one all to itself. It brings a tear to the eye...


Anyway, sorry I've not been about much (ie- since the first night of MIST!), SOMEONE who uses the same pc as me has developed a nasty habit for getting to the pc a long time before I get a look in and playing kings (or some other dodgy card game) long into the night. Hence why the only time I get to post is early afternoon through to the evening. All that should change though, when I can get a pc of my own. Bwa ha ha hu... hum. Like I'll ever be able to afford that.

Anyway, I'll see you later in a glorious night in the future with a low bank balance (or if I ever get my act together and kick that fool off. Or teach him to shuffle a deck for himself.

One other fault - The last place I want to buy my pc from is Dixons. I'm getting a custom spec, around £500, and a nice 1ghz processor. Cant see Dixons offering that.

Go into a Tiny/Dixons/etc Shop...

Stroll over to the part of the shop opposite to the PC section...

Glue your 10 pound note to the floor...

Point extravagantly at the terra firma attached moola and exclaim in an rather loud and clear voice 'o look, it would appear that someone has dropped a ten pound note on the floor just here, look. What a terrible mishap from them. I suppose that should someone come along and pick up the note, that they could pocket the money and be all the better for it!' Then turn and walk away.

You shouild then be able to lesurly select and walk away with the PC of your choice whilst the shop staff fight and argue amonst themsevles over the ownership of the ten pount note...

Glueing the money to the floor allows you to pop back in the shop and nab a Walkman or two whilst the shop staff, realising that the money is attached to the floor, organise themselves into an Iron age clan based society in the mistaken belief that the assistant who can pick the note cleanly from the ground is the one true store manager
