Oh right thanks for that vote of confidence.

If proper trades people could work on the trade counter, then things would be far better. Not the BS that B&Q try to give us.

1.Turning up to second fix and seeing half the town In the plot aswell.

2. Wearing hard hats in doors

3. Labourers sweeping up fine dust whilst in the same proximity as you.

4. Hearing "move your van mate" just after parking it.

5. Labourers who think their practically god but couldn't count past 5.

6. Wet paint on second fix ruining- tools, clothes and hands

7. Bloody dry liners who cant seem to bring out lights or fans or some how manage to screw cables.

8. Realising your apprentice is at college and having to actually kneel.

9. When the socket screws don't reach back box.

10. Dabbed in cables

nah its ok i might download a copy and have a play, im kind of used to debian so it wont be too bad

I doubt you would get it to run on a modern computer tbh but would be interesting to try.

You could Play the original Sim City and try and print a document to a Dot Matrix..... LOL

Still even 3.1 beats the Old BBC computers that my school had, Now they were pants!!

I remember I used to have a stick of RAM out of a old 486 PC as a key ring for years, It was a Whopping 4mb!! LOL

People twisting CPCs together with their drill.

People on forums who "brought" something, not bought it.

to be honest i would have ran it in vmware or virtualbox.

i cant install it on my current pc anyway 1 i dont own a 5.25 floppy drive and
2 pc hasnt got an ide port (ribbon cable)

 

[Tiny Spark]

Ahhh you will be fine.
Mine are on 3 1/2" floppys and you can use a USB floppy drive.

Though after all these years they are probably wiped clean and unreadable.

And USB didnt exist then HAHA
