When those brown envelopes with Play.com marked on them start
arriving, that appear to hold an object not too disimilar to a DVD
case, and then afterwards you go to your PC with them for I guess a
good few hours, with possibly the sound of gun fire and explosions
coming out your PC speakers, what do you say to Mrs Rob about this?
And has she figured out what's really going on anyway?!

Plan A:

1.) Most of these games arrive on a Saturday so get to the door before
Mrs Rob does when the post arrives.

2.) Run upstairs ( Who am I trying to kid? More of a sloth-like plod
these days) into the computer room.

3.) Put on some loud music so that Mrs Rob can't here the sound of
packaging being opened

4.) Shout downstairs and say that you've had this brilliant brainwave
of playing through your old games again, which is much cheaper than
buying new ones, and that you'll be incarcerated in the computer room
all day.

5.) Hide new games in drawer and secretly introduce them to the games
shelves over the next two weeks.


Plan B:

1.) Mrs Rob gets to the door first and picks up a bundle of cardboard
DVD packages.

2.) Perform Maxwell House Shake/5 knuckle shuffle hand signals at
Postman through living room window. Any other time the *** comes
at 10:00am and not 09:00am.

3.) Feign complete surprise at collection of DVD packages explaining
that it must be something you pre-ordered last year and had forgotten
about.

4.) Explain that the £34:99 price stated on the labels would only have
been applicable if you hadn't pre-ordered, so how about that for
thinking ahead?

5.) Reply to question "so how much were they then?" with "gosh! Is
that the time? It's supposed to rain later so I'd better get on and
mow the lawn".
