Chapter 1
Part 1
INTRODUCTION

I ordered my Spectrum a couple of days ago and is due to come through the letterbox any second. I'm very excited about my first console.

*Parcel drops through door*

Finally! That must be it! It is! I can't wait to play on it. I wonder what it's like?

*After about 5 straight hours of trying to plug it in right it finally gets turned on*

This is just as amazing as I thought it would! It's great how you can control the pixels on your screen!

Part 2
FOOD

After 10 hours of play, I started to get a bit hungry. No, very hungry. But I'm on the last level! I can't give up! Oh, it doesn't matter, if I die I won't be able to play on it as much.

Nothing to eat! I've searched the whole house, but nothing! Is this because I知 hungry? Need money to get food. Damn it! I'm broke *again*.

Part 3
THE CAR

It's got so serious, I知 going to have to sell my dads car. I know it's stupid but I知 very hungry!

*Writes out advert*

Car 4 Sale
Ford Mondeo
5 Door
」50
Contact: 01874294096

After 5 minutes the phone rings.

"Hello"

"I'm ringing about the car"

"Oh, right, just come to Fenburn House at the top of the street, and bring the money"

"I'm just wondering, why are you selling it for 」50?"

"I'm hungry"

"Okay...."

Part 4
THE DEAL

*Knock on door*

"Hello, got the 50 quid?"

"Yes, now where's the car?"

"Just outside, the blue one on the right"

"Okay, hang on while I take a look"

After half an hour of him 'checking' it out, he comes back with money, wanting the keys.

"Errr, here's the keys, enjoy!"

"Thanks"

Part 5
FOOD 2

Now I知 really hungry so I pop down to the shops and get some chips, about 20 bags and 20 drinks.

After four hours of eating, I知 happy, my stomachs happy, but I haven't been to sleep for a day. Who cares, back to the computer!

Chapter 2
Part 1
DAD

It's the morning, I haven't stopped playing on 'Ruff 'n' Ready', as I can't even get past the second level, but that's games for you.

*The door opens*

"Where's the car!?"

"What car?"

"The car!!!"

"Oh, that car"

"Well!?"

"I, errr, sold it...."

"YOU WHAT!!!???"

"Look over there! It's the guy who forced me into selling the car!"

My dad looks the other way so I push him out of door and lock him, he goes live at his parents and everyone痴 happy, except him.

Part 2
FOOD 3

I'm hungry, again, and I can't cook, so it's time to find a girlfriend. This means leaving the house *Shudders* so I壇 better get my coat on, comb and gel my hair, and I知 ready to get a girlfriend!

After 3 days of being outside looking for a girlfriend, I find one. We get back to my house and do something all couples should do....but while we're doing that, I知 battling through the third level of 'Ruff 'n' Ready'

The next morning, I finally get more food, goody, goody. Whilst my girlfriend is making dinner, I知 still on the third level, it's quite hard!

Part 3
WEDDING

I need a permanent relationship, so I propose, whilst trying to jump across an almost impossible cliff edge.

It's our wedding day, luckily the GameGear came out a week ago. Sonic's great, vows are boring, end of story. All the "I do's" went quick and we had an amazing wedding night, 2 player on F1 Racer! Okay, not the ideal Wedding night, but I知 not complaining!

Chapter 3
Part 1
I'M PREGNANT

It was a great day, playing on Mario Bros. 3 for the NES, never felt better.

"I've, got something to tell you. Just listen one second"

"Yeh..."

"We're having a baby!"

"OH GOD!...."

"Are you pleased?"

"...Finally! I've beaten him! Bowser is beaten!"

"Errrr, I値l take that as a yes"

Part 2
THE SEX

The SNES era has come and I知 loving Yoshi's Island, playing it day and night, what fun!

"I've, got something to tell you. Just listen one second"

"Yeah..."

"We're having a baby boy!!"

"OH GOD!...."

"Are you pleased?"

"...Finally! I've beaten him! Bowser is beaten *again*!"

"Errrr, I値l take that as a yes"

Part 3
THE BIRTH

My wife's gone to hospital, don't know why, but I don't really care. I'm on the second Bowser on Mario 64, great game is Mario 64.

My wife comes home with a thing in her hands.

"ARRR! What's that!?"

"He's our baby!"

"Oh, you could have told me!"

"I did!!"

"Errrr, I know"

Part 4
THE CHILD

Bad day, GameCube has been delayed until April, ad the baby's really annoying!

"DADDY! I'M BORED!"

Hang on! I've got an idea...

"Kid guy, errr, come into my room, I致e got something for you. Do you want to play on a Spectrum

"YEH!"

Finally, I can play, he can, my wife can cook, everyone's happy and all is quite, my PS2 is dusty, time to turn it on...
