I didn't realise that there were some 2000AD themed Choose Your Own Adventure stories published as magazines in 1986.
Only 5 issues published, think they're all on the Internet Archive. Tripped over them this week.

This has been thinking about all the great cutaway diagrams that used to appear in 2000AD. Often to be found on my bedroom wall. Someone should do a book of these.

Had to chuckle at para 125 in the judgement though.
Yes, hard to imagine any difficulty in presenting people with Wikipedia pages that only contain content from verified users. I'm sure those random selection of paragraphs and edits will be very coherent.

Been married 25 years today 🥳
We celebrated at the weekend with an evening visit to the Roman Baths (where we got married).
Had a glass of prosecco by the waters. 🥂

Still looking to add too my two examples of RSS in the media (Luther S2E04, Man of Steel). Because I'm a nerd.
But just noting that this, spotted in the Caught Stealing trailer, does not count.

I bought the PS2 at the midnight launch here in Bath. Was v. excited to get the console. Ended up queueing for over an hour with my (very bored) wife to pick up my preorder. Ended up buying more games as I was waiting.
Went home and was too tired to set it up so went to bed. Might as well waited!
