    Just watched first three episodes of 'Flash Forward'. Alternated between utter embarassing tosh and "ooooh". Will try again.

    @blech Heh, maybe it'll pick up after I level up, get better guns, find vehicles, etc. Still feels a bit "here's how things work" at the mo.

    @phl Had a 90 min solo go. Loved the graphics but was a bit dull otherwise, so far. Finding money/ammo, shooting a few baddies, no thrill.

    It sounds like window cleaners rather than the SAS. Either way, I've drawn the curtains to avoid social embarrassment.

    Either the SAS has landed on the roof, or the abseiling window cleaning is about to commence.
