It was fiendishly difficult but very entertaining, it's still worth getting hold of today if you come across it anywhere.

There was a PC game I had years ago where you had been a passenger on the Titanic and it is now WWII and after an German bombing of your home you're transported back to the Titanic with a chance to save the ship. This is the mid 90's so the details are fuzzy but I enjoyed that game immensely.

That would be this:

Never played it myself.

Fair point - yes I used go out dressed as moses (1)

actually I always for some reason dressed as a monkey --

the last time I dressed up as a monkey (many many moons ago) I had a cool mask but the next morning you know the tyoe when the smoke is sitll in the air and you are eating your 9 millionth monkey nut .. when my brother said to me --""hey I forgot to tell you that Larry ( he was our dog) had a shit in that mask last week but we gave it a quick wash "" -- I was so pissed off cos I knew I could smell something rotten in the mask but thought maybe I had bad breath.

I gave up dressing up for halloween when I got into the Goth look and one halloween a smart ass dubliner asked me -- what are you dresed up as tonight - Bella Lagussi

I am stll fascinated by them Monkeys though - and I do not mean the Monkees although I do like last train to clarkesville

One gets very lost when one only has access to VT at home after child is asleep and wine has been consumed... Masks? Monkey nuts?

Eeeew! What's fascinating is that the dg actually aimed in there, though.
Most kids in our area put soot on their faces and wore bin-liners. :lol:

Last Train to Clarksville is a great song. Remember watching The Monkees on Saturday morning TV? Think it was Saturday Superstore used to show it.

When I brought my cat home from the vet after being neutered he went and knocked his food dish over, knocked over his litter box and while I was at worked crapped inside a pair of my shoes.

I don't know what he was so pissed off about. The missus took me in for the procedure long ago and I came out fine.

I think it was before Saturday superstore time as I am 41 now so it would it would have been about 30 years ago...

That'd be about right. Unless you were very mature and above such things already. Saturday Superstore ran from '82 to '87. Them were the days ...
