I'm hoping this sort of thing becomes a commercial reality soon :) <br /><br />This planet is just too damn big :(Mr Papafakishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05449586265828153638noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8999006694513130928.post-71537006218497451642016-05-24T08:27:44.695+01:002016-05-24T08:27:44.695+01:002 days before this event, Cheetor below, myself (I...2 days before this event, Cheetor below, myself (I was at his place) and Captain Crooks played a game with Skype ;)Asslessmanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09475252828835332056noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8999006694513130928.post-305068802513171712016-05-24T06:24:52.608+01:002016-05-24T06:24:52.608+01:00Meeting strange men on the Internet has never been...Meeting strange men on the Internet has never been so much fun. <br /><br />Sometimes I am able to make deals with the strange men so that I can get my hands on some of the old Nobz that they keep in boxes. <br />Previously I had only ever seen those sorts of Nobz in old magazines. <br /><br />Etc.<br /><br />Being friends with someone before you actually meet them is a little strange, but it works.<br /><br />Great post.<br />cheetor/sho3boxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10903788038870748272noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8999006694513130928.post-4487911657570998532016-05-24T05:53:33.309+01:002016-05-24T05:53:33.309+01:00If it wasn't for the distance issue that most ...If it wasn't for the distance issue that most of us face in the Oldhammer community then I think we'd meet almost every bloody day :)<br /><br />This may seem a little far fetched, but I honestly think that it won't be too long before projection/hologram technology will be sufficiently advanced enough so that we can virtually play together. This seems to me the only feasible or financially viable way for all of us to be able to "meet up" on a regular basis.....fingers crossed.Mr Papafakishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05449586265828153638noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8999006694513130928.post-73402045419092725872016-05-23T22:24:28.973+01:002016-05-23T22:24:28.973+01:00I'd have hugged and beardkiss you ten times mo...I'd have hugged and beardkiss you ten times more if it wasn't for that flu ;)Asslessmanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09475252828835332056noreply@blogger.com
