What do you mean by

Jump over the chute in "The Drop", walk left to fall
down it, and you'll see what I mean! I think this
can/could happen in the room "WE PRETTY" as
well.

I haven't reached "For Francis Bacon" yet, so I
can't comment. ;-)

Yes, but I've
already typed in Rooms 64 onwards because ROOMS.JS1
(Rooms 0-63) is the last rooms file on the tape (I
hasten to add that I typed in RTIME.JS2 first, to get
the guardian classes, items, graphics etc. in place
before typing in the rooms).

elephants, kings or Peru."

better to do."

Great Wall?"

doesn't fall."
