When things go bad – rather than face the crisis, I like to settle down for an agreeable moment in front of the computer; to conquer the world.
It’s a game which takes several months to play. You start with a tiny pueblo and a chap with a pickaxe and you slowly go out exploring, meeting (raping and conquering) the neighbours. It’s called Civilization III (Number II is a bit infra dig and Number IV is a bit too busy to be enjoyable).

I've sometimes tried other computer games. I have to say that I don't like any of them. It has to be Sid Meier's CIV III.
So now my secret is out. Things go wrong in the office; I’ll come home and put another civilization to the sword. Yes, I know: pathetic.
Unfortunately, the CD has been working too hard recently and no longer loads. You might say that it has ‘risen up’ against its master.
So, as I tear out my hair in clumps, I wonder – does anyone out there have a copy?

I love that game. Keeps me quiet for hours.
You can get a copy off amazon for as little as 1.09 GBP-> http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B00005NZWO?ie=UTF8&tag=sanebookstore-21&linkCode=as2&camp=1634&creative=6738&creativeASIN=B00005NZWO
Also expansion packs, etc. Otherwise, see if any of the local DVD rental stores has a DVD cleaner machine, which might be able to remove the scratching from the surface of the disk.
Hi David - once the strike is over... I'll send away for a copy.
I'll take Australia...
There's already Civilization IV. But I prefer III.
I was just reading in El Mundo - there's Civ 5 as well. However, put me down for a '3'.
Civ V coming out soon, if not already!
Lenox, if it stops you going on about it, I'll sub you the quid to buy a copy :)
