VERY IMPORTANT PEOPLE
Phew, is it really January 2+10 already? Okay then, watch this space. One of the things about being old is that you can look back on your life and remember people and incidents that happened way back in the past. In my life I've met a number of very important people, I didn't know that they were important at the time, but looking back, I now realise that they were/are. Anyway, one of these VIP's told me that 'The more you do in life, the more you're asked to do.' Have you ever noticed that? Well I have, and at the moment, I'm up to my eyeballs in projects, but a promise is a promise, is a promise, so I'm back! And I'll be posting here again on a regular basis, so watch this space!!

PHEW!
Well, sorry everybody about the delay in getting back to you. I know some of you thought I'd given up on this little project. Sorry to disappoint you. I'm back and nearly back in business. First I need to kick-start the old computer which has all my Space Invaders stuff on it. I know what you're thinking, you're thinking why doesn't he just get a memory stick or put it on disk? If only it was that easy. The old pc doesn't have a usb port and the disk drive is a floppy one whereas this machine only has a cd type thingy. Anyway...
POSTING
I'm going to be posting new stuff to Space Invaders! this week, but I'm not sure which day yet. So, this is what I'm going to do. I will e-mail each new post out to anybody who leaves their details on this Zblogage. You can of course if you prefer, contact me by e-mail, my details are in my complete profile which you can clink-the-link to from my right-hand side-bar.
UPDATE
Okay, I don't expect people to leave their e-mail address on this blog or any other place on the web for that matter but you can leave a comment saying you want me to e-mail the next post to you and send me an e-mail with your address on it under plain cover, so to speak. Many thanks to Stan, Lynn, Dave and Kevin who I know read every word on these pages and thank you to all of my readers new and old alike for sticking with me. We are very close to revealing the next chapter...

Back in September..

Sorry Folks!
Gone Camping!

Will post as soon as possible..

MUNDANE MADNESS
Try as I might I just can't seem to win with this blog. I've been over at my other blogs and at other peoples blogs and have had absolutely no trouble posting whatsoever but on Space Invaders! nothing seems to go right. I think the problem is that I use a different computer for my-work-in-progress-novel and the connection is really slow. It is however, linked to the machine that I'm bashing the keys on now so you wouldn't think that there would be much difference but unfortunately there is.
BACK IN BUSINESS
Okay then, back to the nitty gritty, we've just finished Charlie Chapter Three and I can't decide whether to go back to The Party People or to press on with Jason's Mission in Delta Chapter Four. In some ways I want to go back and visit the devious and deluded General Ratz and his buddy The Major and to find out what plans they're hatching right now. On the other hand I'm itching to see if Jason can unlock the secrets of The Metropolski. I guess you'll have to wait for my next posting to find out which route I take.

CHARLIE Chapter Three - (post five)

CHARLIE Chapter Three - (post five)
The security man stands in front of the presidents desk in a private side room. The room is soundproofed and only personell with the highest clearing are allowed in. "Okay sir!" says the Security man, "I'll arrange for a mission to be sent."
"Tonight!" barks the President.
"Yes sir, Mr President! Tonight!"
"Jason," begins the President, addressing the security man by his first name. "I sent for you because I believe that you're the man for the job. When you volunteered, you confirmed that for me."
"Thank you sir."
"Jason, you won't thank me when you find out the extent of the mission."
There is a silence in the already very quiet room, it is the President who speaks again first. "You will leave tonight for the east, our people have arranged for you to take the place of a journalist on a student trip... these are your papers, the orders are in the envelope. Good Luck Jason."
"Thank you sir," he replies and before he leaves the private office, he adds "I'll need it over there."
