Laughing at this = geek

Reminds me of a happier time:

20 years ago on Christmas morning my parents summoned my sister and I into their bedroom and then told us to go downstairs into the dining room where a present was waiting for us. So down we went and there was a brand new Amstrad CPC 6128 (yes, the posh one with both a disk drive(!) AND 128k RAM). On the screen was a message saying "A Very Happy Christmas to <sister> and <me>!".

Now, about six months previously we had got a cat called "Duster" so I decided to type in "also to Duster" on the computer and pressed Return:

Syntax Error.

I remember sheepishly going back upstairs to tell my parents, really worried that I had broken something! :eek:
