Found this during my trudge around the local Lidl on the endless search for bog rolls, strawberry jam and some UHT milk.

Yeah, I know, I came close but no cigar. It's not quite the full ticket. It's a Poundland own make Tolberone (please don't try and eat one, they are vile). Buying a job lot of Spectrum games to receive 100 copies of Make A Chip, Great Space Race and Voyage Into The Unknown. Watching Die Hard 2. Playing Renegade 3. Suffering the final season of Game Of Thrones. Finding Danni instead of Kylie in your bed.

Mat. I was with you right until the last sentence. You're clearly losing it.

The fact it's a silent film stuck me as funny, given how noisy the game is.

Loving these!

I just checked, and it seems that there's a vacancy: can someone set up a cafe, or an engineering workshop in Wales called "Taffy Turner", so I can post it here.

Struggling! I've got a feeling i'll kick myself. They're not made of tourmaline. Has Denis made a game called "Gravy Boats" that is missing from ZXDB?

I got it straight away... and had to load it again, for the marvellous soundtrack.

I still can't get past the second level without making an awful hash of it.

Is it that US Gold one where you're in charge of a two gun tank? I've forgot the name, or I'm confusing it with another game/publisher. (I'm on fire tonight!)

Certainly! We've had plenty before, see here for example.

Nope, the big clue is the item the second grunt is holding on to (and the thingamajig it's on).

I was thinking final stand but no such game [mention]akeley[/mention], but no such title. Am I close?
