I had forgotten all about my early computing days until reading an ex-pat blog by a family now living in New Zealand.
They had posted about wasting time playing Elite and Chuckie Egg.
Better still they had Chuckie Egg embedded into the post!
When I lived on the Isle of Rum - inner Hebrides of Scotland - at one point there was just me and one other kid in the school. The entire island had about 20 folks living on it. Naturally I spent an inordinate amount of time on my computer. My teacher was something of a whizz and I learned a fair amount of BASIC language and general computer know-how through him.
Anyway, Elite and Chuckie Egg were a big part of my life. And thanks to the Dawes family they might be again.

If you think Elite was a flashback, I dare not mention Dogfight! http://www.geocities.com/russdlamb/
Ooops, too late :-)
Thanks for that.
Another day gone...
