You evil man... ;)

I've spent the past few weeks training work into accepting that on Fridays I bugger off the instant my last lesson finishes - "OK, you have about one minute left, save your work, log off, get ready to go the instant the bell rings."..."Right, go now, hurry... go home bye see you next week".

I can beat my own class out the door :)

I may have to borrow a 4-way adaptor cos I dunno where mine is at the mo! I'll need to test it beforehand cos I've got a fab SCART lead for the Speccy which gives an ultra-clear picture but it's also the most unreliable lead known to man!
Cool stuff :-) I was going to take my speccy 128k+ originally but run out of time to write enough games to disk for it (+D). Also with the other stuff I didn't want too much to manage. But will be great to have yours there!

I built a rgb cable for my 128k+ to connect it to my philips monitor (which I use on my a500). However, the yellow turns into brown (A "feature" of ega monitors I think or something I read). However I spotted a QL setup in a local charity shop. As well as it being a massively upgraded ql (more ram & double disk drive - which may also work on my +D) it had a microvitec monitor ttl rgb, and the cable works perfectly with the speccy. Clearest image i've ever seen from a speccy! :-)

Just to make it clear (although I thought everybody already knew), as I've been asked about it tonight:

I won't be at this RV.
:cry:

Months ago, when RV was at the planning stage, I became ill (cause still being investigated).

I then decided to wait and see how things went before booking a hotel and such.

However, as I'm still having regular trips to hospital for biopsies, CT scans, etc. I realised that even if I did somehow get to Ox-ford, even if only for a day, I'd not be 'well' enough to enjoy it. :?

So, I've got a llama trek tomorrow at my usual haunt :) to at least get me off work for one day. :roll:

That's now two RVs that I've missed, and I'm the fucking Events Admin! :roll: :lol:

Have fun you lovely bunch of cunts. :D
