I missed out despite having bloody lectures in the building that housed
it, despite having CompSci friends and despite being forced to do some
physical modelling project for part Ib physics. Do I feel stupid.

This is really great. I read Stephen G's miningco article that mentioned
Acheton... I guess that's not going to be coming our way too quickly :-(, 
but fantastic work on these games. I am, as they say, there.

Philosopher's Quest will be welcome too, as the emulated BBC version I've
got seems a little dodgy.

Now, back to my Vectrex disassembly...
