Yes, i can now confirm that I have been enjoying an all too brief spell of sunshine and cheap beer over in Spain for the past two weeks. The reason I didn't say anything here is that this is an open forum and security is not exactly very good if you let everyone and their mother know that you have vacated your house for two weeks!

Did I get a tan? Not really. I didn't even get to see a beach (apart from looking at one as I went passed in the car) I spent the time visiting relatives in the hills and shopping in Spain's equivalent of Tesco (Carrefour) Oh, and looking at a load of customised cars that had sound systems that would make your ears bleed.

Don't worry though, I have made lots of observations about computing and many other aspects of Spanish life, which I will endeavor to report on these very forums (whether anyone reads them or not is another matter...)

Now my task is to once again be a part of these forums after my long stay away. I missed my chats with you lot while I was PC less, although taking my old PSX over to give to my brother-in-law made the pain a bit easier.

Oh, and one more interesting thing about my trip. I just happened to pick up a PS2 while I was out there, with GT3, so I am now up-to-date with consoles (as far as the UK is concerned anyway) How this affects my intended purchase of a Gamecube I don't know, but I'll have to work on that one!

Hah. Game doesn't realise that the PS2 he made off with was an empty shell, put there to fool him.

Well, a Gamecube is still on the cards, but at least I've now got another platform to play around with.

Now for that £28 for the memory card...what are Sony playing at?!
