I'm not a great fan of tags, the online equivalent of chain letters, but it seems rude to ignore them:
Jane Griffiths (whose views on Reading Labour Party I definitely don't endorse before anyone asks, being a former colleague of her deselection nemesis Tony Page) says I have to tell you six random things about me. Here goes:
- I like pork scratchings
- I came 2nd in the Kent Schools Orienteering League in 1990
- My second toe is a little bit longer than my big toe (I think this is called Morton's toe and causes problems when you are a runner)
- My favourite computer game is Civilisation III (I always play the Romans, badly)
- I have an A grade in Religious Studies O Level (not bad for an atheist)
- My favourite holiday destination is Ostuni in Puglia

Oz Clarke's 250 Best Wines 2008:
"Wine styles go in and out of fashion. Sweet wines had their salad days at the end of the 1990s. This century, well, they've teetered - though some smashing stuff is being made - but to be honest, most high street retailers don't even bother to show their sweet wines at tastings any
more."

The Romans are ok but they tend to get a bit bogged down towards in the middle game.
Much prefer the English or the Chinese.

Hello there Luke. Long time reader first time poster.
I was going to post essentially what John Miles said. Get yourself on to Civ 4 and ditch the Romans. Frederick of the Germans is far superior.

Luke. Please don't tell me that you read Jane Griffiths' vile drivel. You will certainly go down in my estimation.

anonymous above may be thrilled to know that the infamy of 'Jane Griffiths' has not reached the shores of My Island.
greetings Mr.Akehurst, your Tagee Mr.Locker has tagged me I thank you not.
My father stayed with some British Akehursts while with the RAAF during WW2 ... this is clearly some delayed revenge for their having to tolerate him.
