I'm going to do one whilst there are still people on line for a change.
Ace my computers gone slow and I can type faster than it appears on the screen. I used to be able to do that when I was a kiddy on my bbc micro in mode 8.
I wrote my first computer game on that. It was called treasure hunt, there was a big grid and you could move around and dig for treasure. Only one square had treasure if you found it you one. The grid was however many characters wide and high the standard bbc micro graphics mode could take. Probably worked out at about 600. I even used VDU 23 to draw a new stick man character. It was ace. I was only 9.
I also replaced all the data strings in Granny's Garden to swear loads. Happy days.
Anyway back to normality. The classic interesting day sort of question goes I suppose. I'm watching the snooker. Next frame is going to be a decider.

i used to live in birch street, the parking was a nightmare, couldn't get a space in our own street so we had to park in the 2 hour bays and always got tickets, regularly complained vehemently to the council but just got 'computer says no' thrust back in our faces. bunch of cunts.
