Yep, but even this useless heap can't be blamed this time - it's
the 'net (dis)connection that's turning me towards drink!

Why? Nowadayss, in this country at least, the commercial magazines
don't encourage you to learn to program, wheareas in the early 1980's
Your Spectrum and Sinclair User did everything they could to
encourage and teach the art of programming. And of course with the
proliferation of consoles nowadays, programming is less and less
within the reach of the bedroom coder. Great song, anyway.

Drop me a line when you can, mate, but take your time, UMM comes
first!
