BIG congratulations to all involved in MMLL.

I haven't recieved the magazine yet, but I snapped this from Darren's YouTube vid (I'm sure a good scan will be posted in a few days).

Manic Miner The Lost Levels is Remake of the Month and Flash is interviewed.
...welcome to the club. ;)

...and dont' forget to get an extra issue for your mom. :)

I guess its was a surprice of Flash, or he was tie by the magazine. :)

I do get the another surprice too, so scan that circus game too when you have the change.

I do lost my visacard, so I cant order that one, before I got a new.

I will have to cut the picture out and stick it above my bed next to my Sokurah cut out...

I am a little suprised that I got away with the picture of me with a glass of wine and a fag (cig for the Americans) hanging out of my mouth, wearing a badge saying 'The Queen is a lesbian' and holding a Voodoo doll of Obama in my other hand. Just bloody lucky you cannot hear what I am singing really....

Well, I can get you a live-sized cardboard figure if that's of any use. :P
