fun and games

Guys!
How refreshing it all sounds! In my father's day long haul really was long haul and all the hosties had to be trained nurses in case of emergency. Not only might a child be conceived en-route but birthed as well. Much the same on an A340-500 today.
On my old outfit the Taiwanese were hairdressers in their spare time. I asked once for a full wash, cut and blow dry but she said I had to be Joe King for that sort of service. Even though I offered to pay.
Funny thing about software writers, they always embed games that are accessible by pressing and holding down unusual combinations of buttons. I don't know about space invaders or pacman but I once got Rat Man out pretty quickly but I never found the knack of resetting it. Had to get a ground engineer to do it. He said if I was going to play Silly Beggars that I should hold down ATHR for 15 seconds before pressing anything else and I wouldn't get bored for the rest of the flight.
Try it sometime. Never too old to learn.
