I used to love playing this game - Isolation, with my brother when I was young.  Does anyone remember it & also has anyone got a spare/willing to sell?

Today I bought a chicken from Morrisons for £3 (it was even freerange) and had roast chicken, fried pots & peas - yumm!
Later, I stripped the carcass and made chicken soup with the bones.
I'm making chicken curry tomorrow.
Anyone any ideas what I can do with the legs? (ps - make it legal!)

Also, what's the most amazing thing you've done with a chicken?

Been reading tooth since the tv ad and stopped chucking them out around the 100s.  So, sitting here passing the spinner to my daughter before she heads off to work and admiring the biotronic stickers with my youngest bother (27), I thought I'd enumerate the elements I look for in a GREAT strip:

1. Dystopian Future - full of crazies, weirdoes and freaks.
2. Occultists or Nazis - ideal baddies whom everyone rightly hates.
3. Chainsaw Wielding Mutant Dinosaurs - one for the kids!
4. Psychotic Sociopaths with Heavy Armour - really old skool.
5. Bizarre Immoral Sex Deviants (male/female/other) - cos the comic grew up.
6. Time Travelling Vampire Zombies.
7. Invert the inversion, then invert it again - example: a cop, by definition is a good guy, but he's racist and fits up a Mexican for rape without due process (the inversion). He gets sacked / dies, alone hated and despised. It turns out the Mexican was guilty - the inversion inverted.  (Watch 'A Touch of Evil' starring Orson Welles if you haven't seen it).
8. Do something unexpected - draw Mohammed and his child bride, show the gentler side to Mussolini, expose the latent fascism in new age/green politics, etc.
9. More guns, explosions and more transvestite cyborgs on speed.
10. Deliberately lampoon pompous celebrities with thinly disguised attacks in print.
