OK, I have to ask....

I was listening to the radio last night and they mentioned a group coding games for machines that are 4-5yrs old as not everyone can afford all the vid-cards etc to play the latest shizza.

They gave the website for the FREE download and silly me forgot the website, and the name of the game.

This sounds ideal for playing on night shift at work, tehe,

I can remember that it was a <something>.uk.co (geeze that narrows it down)

Anyone know what I'm on about?

(I've really narrowed it down haven't i)

Oh, and apparently it's a revamp of an old game.

Haha, i rang the radio station and they played last nights review over the phone to me.

How helpful :closedeyes:

It was 'Scorched Earth'

Apparently a free download at www.scorchedearth.co.uk but i can't access it from work

If anyone gives it a go, let me know how it goes.

Thanks...Birnie

      I'm so far behind in the jobs I have to do at both work and home (including car) that I have become immortal. There's simply no way that I can die now.

      [HOW-TO] Winter Steam-Clean & Odour Removal in 30 min

      Each to their own I guess  Me, I put just as much time into cleaning inside of the cars as I do on the outside As for getting wet, it is really no different than steam cleaning the carpets at home, apart from the cars carpet dries alot faster than the house, again, I only do it in the hotter months and leave the car opened up for a few hours As I only do it yearly, it is just before I do the diff and gearbox service, so I clean the carpets, then it's up on stands, wheels off, service, clean the undercarriage,  grease the bushings and do a nut and bolt check on everything  Disclaimer: I typically had all the time in the world to kill when I was working 🤣, so spending a full day or 2 cleaning, serving and "looking at stuff" was,  easily achievable, and a fun mental therapy day As for time to kill, I retired last Wednesday, so apart from my physical training, my days are filled with lots of random jobs around the house and garden...."Idle hands are the Devils something something" I am also buying a new house sooner rather than later, I'm actually looking at a potential property tomorrow, I'm looking forward to getting a car hoist as I'm starting to get to old to crawl around under a car, I can only imagine all the undercarriage cleaning and looking at stuff when that gets set up

      Yeah, I'm not interested in wetting the carpets, and I don't care about brown dirt/dust that lives deep in the pile or underneath. It's not like I crawl around on them in my birthday suit or eat dropped food off them (because there is never any open food in my car). The seats are alcantara (cheap Chinese imitation alcantara, to be sure!) with barely 1" of foam pad behind the surface. That's not getting wet either. Any car that I would be happy to get the interior wet, I would not care to put the effort into.
