They have Billy Connolly. Bastards.

As is our resident PC hardware expert, andrewas. Btw, we're not useless, it's just hard for those of limited intellect to appreciate the depth and subtelty of our naturally superior intellects [img]graemlins/finger.gif[/img]

P.S. Try here for some basic information.

"Once upon a time, little boys and girls, there was a very silly Ironworks member called Horatio. Now, Horatio liked to run, so when he annoyed the nice drow mistress Kaltia, she let him run.

From her five-headed dragon pet "Tiamat".

It is said that the silly Horatio is still running away from Tiamat even now! Oh, dear, boys and girls, that's the end of the story! But look! I have a new one here, "The tale of the dancing genie-boy"! It begins like so..."


Something like that, Robert?

I have been to Scotland about seven times, once for a full weeks tour on a motorbike [img]tongue.gif[/img] The areas away from Glasgow /Edinburough / Dundee ect are well worth seeing, very friendly, great beer and very relaxed. I have yet to see more than a half day of sunshine in total, it is a very moist area. Here is a extract from a post I did on the visit.

"My wife and me did a weeklong tour of the eastern side of Scotland on motorbikes many years ago. Being summer it rained heavy every single day, we were constantly wet, and for the most part we were camping too. We never dried out once But the crazy thing was it made the scenery even more beautiful!, the heather on the moors glistening with the rain in the odd shaft of sunlight peeping through the ever brooding sky. Empty roads unwinding like a black ribbon to the horizon. Surely the most peaceful and empty of Europe’s destinations."

I love the place, shame about the strange languague the locals use though
