I used to work in an airconditioned design studio on the third floor overlooking Liverpool St Station with twins on reception. Five thirty in the afternoon was such a pleasant time of day in the summer.
The internet boom rocked. |

I spent my entire school and college life working in a small independent Jap/US import game shop (and failing school and college :)) and I couldnt have been happier although it was very, very expensive. My japanese Dreamcast cost me £700 (not inc games, extra pad, memory units and a big new tv to play it all on), although I did manage to get one the day before Japanese launch ;).

Go werk in the games shop. Get extremely good at Quake 3. |
This also happened as I was in the top Quake 3 clan in the Uk although I did it all for fun and not really seriously. I was just (and still am :)) fooking good.

This also happened as I was sponsored to go to the UK qualifiers of the CPL (Cyberathlete Professional League) although didnt win, more like came 37th of 50 as it was a friends 21'st the night before and I got very, very drunk :p
Everyone still got prize money though :)

This, unfortunatly never happened, although my girlfriend has never once complained at the extreme agileness of my fingers ;)
Then I discovered clubbing, class a drugs and casual sex and hence the geek days ended. |
