Yes. My brother plays still, I play occasionally, and there's an online version still strong, I believe.

T.H.Read Must Die! - An Inspector Lacey Mystery

Since he first rose to fame in late 2005, controversial author Thomas Harrington Read has been the target of death threats. In a constant stream, all signed off with a variety of bizarre names, none have so far proved willing to carry through on their menacing missives. Feeling indestructible, he has become inured to the abuse heaped upon him.

But now there is a rumour that Allin, Bronstring and Tabacco have been hired to take him down. This ruthlessly efficient trio have yet to fail in any task they set their mind to, and it appears that Read's days are numbered.

Calling in favours, Read has enlisted the aid of the retired Inspector Lacey to track down the cunning triumvirate before they can do away with him once and for all. Can Inspector Lacey succeed where so many have failed before him, and does he have his own reasons for wishing that T.H.Read would die?

A thread most controversial, that’s what I want to start
Full of impassioned arguments, of posting from the heart
And for this stimulation all will be thankful to me
On come on everybody it won’t work if you agree

Thank you. Most people would probably describe it as insane or cat-moustache-logic rather than cunning.

That looks like the porridge my parents made me eat when I was young, only that was white instead of gold-like.

What? I didn't know you played (occasionally)!? Your already-high stock just went through the roof! Oh, if only I were British, I would woo you from this guy



Anyway, what day is the wedding again? Will you have a live streaming webcam available?

Dr Lacey, the thread appears to be flatlining, what should we do?

Robert learns his bedside manner from Dr House.

Right now he's on the "remain silent and look pensive" stage.
