It's all happening today; my new FX5600 Ultra card has just decided to give up the ghost. Great.

Luckily I've still got my old Ti4200 card that I hadn't got around to selling on eBay just yet, so I'm still up and running. Hopefully the FX5600 can be repaired/replaced in time for Half Life 2...

I've come across an absolutely fabulous vertically scrolling shooter called Warning Forever which you can find here: http://www18.big.or.jp/~hikoza/Prod/index.html#wf

Both India and Zak were spoilt rotten over Christmas this year. Zak was understandably overwhelmed by the whole occasion, but India loved every moment.

Anyway, a couple of pictures:
