It was indeed, my knowledge level is not quite up to the game yet, but it's 
interesting to see how folks approach the question. Most of the answer is in 
the thinking rather than the programming, which I suppose is to be expected.

I must try this, but I suspect it won't work. Although maybe if I do it while 
he's playing Planets...... Hmm, that's a very cunning plan.

Also, I got a new bike this week. Well, it's second hand but it's new to me. A 
rather yummy 10 speed which I tried out this morning. I am now so fast I can 
overtake cars! Anyone know any good pubs around Middlesbrough?

Best wishes,

Alice
