    Sorry, didn't notice - I was the one by the bus stop stretched out on the pavement reading the first 'Dark Tower' novel. So I wasn't really watching the traffic...


    Ummm, so back on topic. Yeah, cool! sounds like a good article - I'll have to see if any of our artist chaps downstairs have a copy of the magazine.

    I just spent 2 hours waiting for the Oxford bus to show up at Hillingdon...

    But on the plus side I found out that Scampi and Lemon Nik-Naks have been re-released! Now to stink out the office...

Ooh, an Alex Ross picture of some 2000AD characters... Drooooool.

However... As a thirtysomething my penchant for posters has slightly waned now, so I'd appreciate it if they were available as prints (suitable for framing), from the Future Shop as well.

Junction 6... That's the Lewknor one by the Chiltern's, popularly known as the Weather Barrier, as I've known it to be snowing on one side and bright sunshine on the other...

You drive from London to Oxford? Madman! I get the coach, it's a lot easier...

Yeah, I agree - Oxford Weather is a law unto itself though (Although quite nice at the moment, despite being cloudy earlier on). At least Botley Road isn't flooding now though, paddling to work's not fun...

Hotter here apparently, our producer just got back from Singapore...

Sitting in an Air Conditioned office trying not to fall asleep at the moment. I'm on holiday next week, but you can guarantee it'll be raining by then :(

Norts vs. Southers?

Umm, the two sides in Halo Jones Book 3 (Can't remember what they're called, and I was only reading it a month ago - the shame! The shame!)

Yeah, all graphics cards are compatible - get a GeForce IV/FX or Radeon 9700 graphics card - ATI Rage's aren't that good for running these modern games. I suggest getting another 256 mb (or more) RAM too.

Rogue Trooper always used to crash on me :(

I played a bit of Deus Ex Machina. Once I'd downloaded it + the MP3 files for the sound track. Very weird and couldn't really get into it - were you supposed to be doing something on those early screens?
