It doesn't seem to work, though.  I get an error saying something like
either wrong version (I'm definitely trying the patch for the UK 1.2
version) or it's already patched.  I don't think it is; it's still
asking for my CD!

Can someone who's successfully patched it tell me what I can look for
(other than not having to use the CD!), i.e. .ini file changes, etc.?

For the record, this is purely a nice to have' as I'm a lazy sod; I'm
not a no-good pirate!!!

btw the UK 1.2 no-cd patch should work.  Try the one at

R.I.P. - William Joseph Dunlop OBE MBE  2/25/52 - 7/2/2000

                                 ^^^^^^^ - One or the other award. You can't
have both as they are part of the same thing. OBE - Order of the British
Empire, MBE - Member of the British Empire. The OBE is the senior of the
two.

The sequence goes: MBE - OBE - CBE. If you start with the MBE, you can be
promoted if you are deemed worthy enough or are nominated for the next award
in line.

Judging by the way you do your dates, you are from across the pond, so you
can be forgiven for not knowing how our honours system works ;-)

Cheers,

Mick.

This just came up in a discussion I had recently -- which is the highest
one a foreigner can get? (In other words, what will Sven-G?ran Eriksson end
up with? ;)

Mr Eriksson can be made a Knight of the British Empire. He won't be able to
use the title _Sir_, but he can put the letters _KBE_ after his name. What
does he do?

HTH,

Mick.

Whipped the UK soccer team into shape -- they just beat the Germans 1-5 (IN
GERMANY), and are well on the road to WC finals. Just the thing if you want
to get on the right side of a brit, methinks... :)

Universal Pictures announced today they plan to make a film of the
momentous
football match that took place on Saturday 2nd September 2001.
"Five-One" is
the tentative title of what could be next year's big summer hit,
depicting the American national soccer team's stunning victory over
Germany.

Nicholas Cage heads an all star cast as the captain of the brave US
Soccer
team haunted by the trauma of losing in the 2000 World Cup final on
penalties and the death of his wife in a riot caused by English
football
hooligans, and finds love in the arms of a female sports journalist
played
by Julia Roberts. Mel Gibson is the no-nonsense Swedish coach who
leads them
to glory, with Keanu Reeves, Ben Affleck, Matt Damon and Will Smith
playing
some of Cage's heroic team mates. Jeremy Irons is set to star as Sir
Nigel
Villiers-Smythe, the dastardly Englishman who coaches the German team
and
forces them to play with poisoned-tipped studs to try and cheat the
heroic
American team out of victory.

Director Steven Spielberg defended the film-makers' decision to focus
on the
American contribution to the victory over Germany and inaccurate and
even
imagined events in the story, saying, "Obviously we've had to take
some
artistic licence to make the story work on film, but I hope that what
we
produce will be true to the spirit of what happened on that famous
night."
