I was talking to our IT guy at work today and he'd never heard of it! I used to love it though, as a child. We never had a home computer, but my Dad was a Headmaster and used to bring one home from...

I know you'll be good at this, Hitchers of old ? esp as I have just spotted Sparkley around ? Am writing the Editor's column for the magazine, and we have an article about sex, written Hitched's own...

So, H didn't come ski-ing this spring because the lady who sorts the work diary had him written in for the wrong month and then couldn't get cover - extreme unjustice, but that was that, no point...
