Roadrunner: KX closed at 3 AM. Time for some zeds! Goodnight all.
arabianights:
More to the point - for the lazy reader - KX connecting now at ten to midnight 
Roadrunner: Apologies-please reconnect to KX.
arabianights: erm I suppose that goes back to 1st world problems
arabianights: if the meals were from COOK or something I would unequivocally have them, but alas they are from not waitrose, not even M&S, heck not even Tesco - but from the CO OP!!!
Roadrunner: KX 1985 open.
arabianights: still, the even greater simplicity of just sticking something in the microwave an piercing it a little bit shouldn't be understimated
arabianights: (ok sausages and chips is not haute cuisine but these are greate sausages and great chips)
arabianights: the sausage/chip thing is much better quality but also marginally more effort
arabianights: I will decide in about half an hour
Roadrunner: Option B!
arabianights: (not exactly culinary challenges)
arabianights: (for those keeping score, option A is microwave a curry ready meal. option B is cook some sausages and deep fry some chips, then add ketchup to taste...)
arabianights: I still need to work out what I will have for supper but that may take me more than an hour - don't worry though cause the two options both require very little "cooking"
arabianights: okliy dokily
Roadrunner: Give me 10 mins to set-up.
Roadrunner: People have been discouraged in the past from using the chat box.
Temple Meads: There's 28 people online, a KX game should work
arabianights:
(heck if you relied on chat probably no game wouold ever start 
) jishmondo: Maybe tomorrow if anything's going on
arabianights: worth starting a game and seieng if anyone turns up no?
arabianights: a lot of players don't seem to say anything in chat
Roadrunner: I would need more players, DJ.
Roadrunner: Pity, JM. Never mind-hope to see you next time.
arabianights:
that said I'm cool with starting the game with any other panel arabianights: sure but I didn't really know what was going on, I think the only way I can get that is to do it from zero time
jishmondo:
Would love to play but I have work early tomorrow 
Roadrunner: You did fine last time. Remember, 3 platforms were closed!
arabianights: I screwed it up big time last time but I reckon I can do it if I start from scratch...
arabianights: how about starting 1985 from beginning with me working cross
arabianights: actually, if it's just you and me in chat
arabianights: uh oh
Roadrunner: I have the saves from 1985.
arabianights: (my upload would probably struggle with it amongst other reasons)
arabianights: in *theory* I could do it but believe me I am not a sensible first choice
Roadrunner: haha. Hosty wosty. Nice new word.
Miscellaneous 
. I can remember the Traincrew accomodation block at Oxford being struck once whilst in the messroom and that knocked everything out for a good while
