I'm stumped. Flu's no good. Measles, mumps and the pox....nope. Been there, done that...puked in bucket. Erm... Dentists.? So....so....predictable. Hang on..... "Hello Mr Boss....cough cough wheeze....I cannit come in today....had to get the Doctor out... ........nope still in bed.....sneeze....he says I've got something called...GPitis....aye....type 3" Sounds plausable. Well thats my excuse. I'll be at my local EB store...9.00am sharp. Although...knowing my bloody luck.....I'll come running round the corner and my Boss will be first in the queue. Bollocks...hadn't thought of that. As a punishment he'll probably make me drive a full GP at the "ring" in GPL. God...don't like the sound of that. Idav. Who is going to be one sick puppy come the 28th.

My house mate always has some relative passing away for an excuse. He gets a lot of sympathy at his school because of the high death rate among his relatives. "idav" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:8jvuc2$16m$[email hidden]...

I don't know if you're married or not (or your age), but you should have thought of this date approximately nine months ago. I know we didn't know the *exact* release date, but we had a rough idea. At that time, you could've decided on a baby with her, and after the birth, you could've done the honourable thing and take care of the baby (9 months off with paternity leave), while your wife went back to work. After she goes to work, change the baby, give it a bottle, put it to bed, and get GP3 going until the wife gets home....damn..I shoulda thought of this back then also...lol Dave "Harjan Brand" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:3DL85.5442$[email hidden]... > My house mate always has some relative passing away for an excuse.

Wow, and I thought getting the necessary upgrade on my machine was going to make GP3 addiction a pretty expensive past time. If then you add a few hundred thousand to raise another offspring, it would almost be cheaper to start your own F1 team and do it for real !
