What I find strange is people used to have the money to go out and buy even "budget" games that would have meant missing out on 20 weeks of 10p mix from the newsagent no way were we getting £1.99!

bigclivedotcom is Hot pink and dangerous (just how we like it).

Extra points for the inappropriate LED resistor and flimsy copper coated aluminium flex.

On a plus note this one will probably keep your cup of coffee quite hot. Probably best to remember to switch it off afterwards though.
