What time are you going to be down Spadgy? I can take lunch any time and we can hook up at Casino and finally exchange those secret files.

I popped in today but Tatsujin Oh was out of commision due to screen display problems. I wouldn't mind getting beaten up by that game.

It was running perfectly on friday. That cab has never caused any problems with boards before :? . Not until we put Tatsujin Oh in that is...

Not gonna happen for a while. keep screwing up the pattern of the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd stage bosses. the stage runs are relatively simple enough to learn from the replays.

I have to see some of this. That game looks so simple, but it's such a tough bastard. It ruined me when I played it after the first install.

I'm out of the country for a few days soon though, so it's going to be a while before I grace the place again...

unfortunately circumstances (of the financial variety) have conspired against my visit to London this weekend.

I'm well pissed off!

Soho was largely on fire Saturday so it was kind of fortunate you couldn't make it :)

Cool news!
All the best to you and the misses! Keep us posted. :D

So has ARH done his first 1 cc on Border Down yet (any pad)? :P
You know he has the genes for it... ;)

Thanks Mr Laydock!

ARH has the focus. He's been watching my Border Down runs with interest this week. He likes the explosions "Bash". I'm not letting him on the joystick until he's two though. Just a couple more weeks
ARH is getting to the size where he can wear those clogs you bought him. I'll take some shots.

The new Stork Delivery is a girl :arrow: LJH
ROM is quite proud.
