I've heard of that! My source says it's by "Duncan McDonald and
brother", but you call yourself "Duncan Sinclair" - presumably the
former is wrong?

I'm wondering if it's been sighted on the internet at all,

To the best of our knowledge, no. It's one of two lost MM/JSW games
from of old, the other being Jet Set Matey (mentioned by Nick Smith
on comp.sys.sinclair in 1993).

or am I going to have to figure out how to read my old microdrive
carts to access it?

I think it needs an airing, about 20 years after it was written...

I'll second that! 49 JSW games for the Spectrum have been gamma-
released on the Internet, but only 12 MM games so far...
