Hope they don't get halfway through then get an 'out of cheese error - redo from start'
When I leave this godforsaken dump of a place and get a new job, that's going on the web server.

Personally I think a film featuring the City Guard would be better, y'know;

Samuel Vimes
Carrott
Nobby
Fred Colon
Sybil Ramkin
Angua etc......

And of course the 'Dog Botherer'

if errcode <>0 then messagedlg ('+++ Divide By Cucumber Error. Please Reinstall Universe And Reboot +++',mterror,[mbok],0);

Somewhere, one day, someones going to be looking at their mixer desk wondering what's going on :)

Have to agree with that - just re-reading he guards books again now half way through men at arms at the moment but who would you have playing who?
Would you go for new unkown actors or would you get more established names to play the characters?
