But of course!!
I'll write a new adventure over the weekend with you all in....

Let me see ( in the voice of Roger from 'American Dad').....'dying of dysentery in Burma while digging a trench..., far too realistic darling, we need romance, action, adventure, and booze......let me see.... I'll set it in Bolivia.....yeah, or how about Iceland?'

Fantastic!! I just can't wait for the release of this game. I'm in my fifties now, so I'm hoping it is released before I shuffle of this mortal coil![X(]

A question Ormster if I may make so bold. Have you got a retractable roof in your attic, or did you shoot the roof off with the ack-ack?

A supplementary question too. Why is your colleague aiming his bazooka at his gunnery mates?

And a second supplementary. Which one is you?
