LINKS PAGE (last updated 19 Mar 06)
Here you will find links to various web pages that I think are fun or interesting or useful, or something like that.

Time wasters:

www.projectrockstar.com - a fun online game in which you create & manage bands, and try to take them to the top of the charts, playing against thousands of other people. As long as you don't get too hooked, it only takes up a few minutes each day but is good fun!

www.candystand.com/games - lots of free games which you can play online.

www.footiemanager.com - a free online football management game, playing against many other people. Not as good as things like Championship Manager, but still pretty good.

www.tony-hawks.com - website of top writer & comedian Tony Hawks, the best bit being his replies to emails sent to him by people who thought he was Tony Hawk, the pro-skater.

www.playforyourclub.com - help your team get to the top of the league by playing a fun online football game.

www.mousebreaker.com - it's no candystand, but still has plenty of free online games.
