Actually, they look pretty excited about their win. Imagine the look on their faces when they go down to that London and see a train in the sky.

That's going to buy a big fuck off bottle of buckfast.

A vat of the stuff...good job they're fat and buoyant or else they'd sink like a Gaywood in the deep end.

I bet they build a replica of the garden/lake/river from Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. I would definitely do that.

WHAT DID YOU GET, GAYWOOD? Tell me it was extra hot!

Didn't that one chap who won just use it to buy a big house with a lot of land, and then spend all the money on crashing cars in his garden and getting shitfaced? I thought that had a certain panache to it.

Why do women wear such brightly colored bras under such thin white tops?

IIRC he was in the news a few months ago as he's blown the lot and is trying to get his old job back with the bin men. Can't remember how much he won, but I think it was around £10m. He did come across as a complete tool with an IQ that would embarrass a house plant, though.

Halloumi is the cheese of the gods.

Ah fuck, I can see where this is going to end up...

I gave the accounts girl an ice cream and chatted to her for a bit. It's getting very, very lonely all the way over here.

I don't get why you'd make your winnings public in that situation? Aren't you just inviting a load of begging letters and moochers? I'd keep it bloody quiet.

And this is how office romances begin.

You think you're joking.

I wasn't.

Believe you me, I know which side my bread is buttered.

rudey?

I'd just like to say, well done chaps. This place has been most excellent today!

Back from A&E, doc reckons that the ligaments have had a good stretching but that they're intact.

No. Reply with the first thing that comes into your head. Nothing can possibly go wrong.

HEY I TTLY SAW DOWN THIS GIRL@S TOP TODAY IT WAS GREAT.

WhO ARE YOU AND WHY ARE YOU SO SORRY?


-SA

Sort of kissed? How does that work?

Anyway, that Rebekah Brooks, eh? Had to go really. Evil.

http://www.abandonia.com/ is the closest thing. Home of the Underdogs was also (fuckin' finally) resurrected at http://homeoftheunderdogs.net/ a couple of years ago, but after such a long period of stasis and since gog proved that they were right about most people wanting to buy them if possible, they've gone pretty quiet again since.

I doubt either of them would do xcom or JA though, as they're not abandonware anymore.

Edit: Huh, interesting. Try http://www.hotud.org - seems to be more complete than the other HOTU site. Not sure what's going on there. I will have to do some investigatin'. I've been meaning to write a toast to HOTU for ages actually - they combined games and archiving, two of my favourite things, and they did it all for free while the games industry sat by doing nothing.

Re-edit: Ah, now it's coming back to me - the first site is where the original HOTU is being recreated after the original owner let it stagnate for years and lost the domain a couple of times. The second site is where some other people started anew, concentrating on the original idea rather than recreating the old site itself. The latter appears to be a better resource at the moment.
