Times are hard for many and our dear Merse Is no exception, he even had to stay In today, no football Or horse racing for him, soon I hear he will be collecting washing in the cab of his.
Its even worse at home for him you know, there Is only one PC In the house and so many who want to use it. Guess what Merse pulls rank over everybody and gets his over sized frame sat In front Of the PC screen. Mind you he can hardly see It and has the resolution set to 800x 600, god help anyone on here who posts a big picture, he will soon let you know, the forum has been stretched 19 feet wide.
A Que forms behind him, young Antony Is first in line."come on dad you have had your go, let someone else have a go" are very common words spoken In the Merse household.
"Wait Anthony, that Dave R will reply soon, that poster thinks he knows everything and thinks he his so clever, well I got him this time.
"Dad he Is not going to reply, I want my go on the PC"
In the end old Merse has to give In to the constant protest coming from Anthony.
" OK but only until you get killed in that game, as soon as that space creature gets you, I want my go again"
But like most kids Anthony Is a master In the games world and kills all the bad guys and moves on to the next round. Old Merse fumes and cusses and keeps saying under his breath, just loudly, "die , why don't you just die"
Anthony Is not going to die, he has waited long enough to get on to the PC in the first place, but old Merse has learned a few tricks as he has gotten older.
"Just going to get a drink" he says, but really Is heading for the fuse box, pulls out the one for the sockets In the front room.
" Dad the PC has stopped working, whats wrong"
"I'll have a look and get It fixed Anthony and will call you when I've done It, go and get your home work done until Its fixed"
That old Merse he really Is a one, still he will never be a match for Dave R, no matter how long he stays on the PC.
