Lovely piece of film from 1960's. :tunes:

The best of both worlds for the forum cyclists :lol: :lol:

Wonder how far you'd get before you collapsed?!

Even more fun from the 1930s, thanks to Bruce Kennewell.
I used to have a full set of these at work, on a disk labelled "Stress Management Utilities" :lol:

Thanks for that Mike W!
Did a chunk of it, had to go out, restarted to find that it doesn't save your progress!
Gritted my teeth (those I still have!), and did it in full.
I might even buy the making software, so I can make my own.
A whole new way to waste my time! :excited:
Cheers, Mike.
