We struck off to Noodles first as "Evil needs food badly" when he sleeps in & doesn't eat for 24 hours. I was going to buy but Dad beat me too it. We both ordered the new braised beef gnocchi (however it's spelled) & dinned in while discussing the planned stops.

So anyway, after my fit of maniacal laughter we walked over to the used video game store where I found the motocross game Matt & I played to the tune of the Wizard of Speed & Time soundtrack last weekend & Sword of Mana.

It's expensive, but it will be good to get that running again.
That's pretty much my day so far. Now, on to the videro games.
