So we finished our GCSEs in 1992 and, as is often the case at that age, we just kind of lost touch. I didn't see Chris again until the Christmas holiday period in 2018.

I was hunting for retro games in a charity shop in our old hometown. I didn't notice him come in but we recognised eachother pretty much straight away and had a good chat outside.

He didn't go to work for Bullfrog. In fact neither of us went into the games industry at all. But he did find his way into programming, and had spent a few years before we bumped into eachother doing a lot of fairly close to the metal work in C.
