I really wanted this game when I was younger. I got really excited when someone at school had a copy they wanted to swap. I was very disappointed when I got this instead! I can't even remember what I swapped it for now!

Does anyone remember the play Unman, Wittering & Zigo? We read through the script at school in the 80s. It involves a new teacher replacing the previous teacher who died in an accident... or was he murdered? Intimidation by the pupils and suicide.

This also made me remember the World of the Future books by Usborne. I had the Future Cities book. Just had a look at some scans of the pages and I had forgotten this horrific version of the future, a polluted pesthole, a city of a dying world, and jets trailing a plume of filth.

Reminds me of the spacecraft in the Terran Trade Authority handbooks by Stewart Cowley. These are pictures from the Spacewrecks, Ghostships and Derelicts of Space book.

Amazing gig from Melin Melyn at the Mill on the Hill (Hare & Hounds, Birmingham). The evil landlord tried to stop the gig but thankfully failed. Loved the Orange Juice cover!

Amazing concert from Cornelius at the Barbican, London
This show was an amazing mix of old songs and new, melding sound, animation and lights which at times had a hypnotic and ethereal effect to transport you to another reality.
