Having said that, I haven't yet finished the first one so - once it makes it natively to the Mac - I'm gonna have to give it a go. I have, somehow, managed to remain blissfully unaware of the specifics of the ending, despite knowing general stuff like the offer of cake being not exactly truthful. -z- -- email: nettid1 at fastmail dot fm

Last one without offspring as well, so enjoy it :-) Yeah, I'm expecting birthdays are going to change quite a bit - no more foreign city breaks for a while at least... We're currently wondering whether to give complete free reign (within a budget) to the kid with gift decisions for our birthdays. It might be interesting to see how soon the gifts turn from Lego, pirate hats or ballerina outfits to things that Mummy and Daddy might actually appreciate... -z- -- email: nettid1 at fastmail dot fm

Thanks Hugh, and everyone else. I was in Paris, so no work, no fizzy pop, and no jelly. But I did have what was without doubt the most awe-inspiring cheeseboard I have ever experienced. Nom nom nom. (Curious case of history repeating itself - the last time I was in Paris I was nestled in the womb as my Mum went there when she was pregnant with her first child. This time, it's my wife who is pregnant with her first child...) -z- -- email: nettid1 at fastmail dot fm
