About 12 years ago I worked with a guy who had learning difficulties, and with this came a speech impediment. He couldn't say 'Tommo' (as everybody else called me at the time) so called me Tongo instead. He was a bit of a mascot, so everybody started to call me it and it just stuck. My real name is ...

PD & UAKM 'Shortcut' with VDMS

I've been running PD & UAKM using the VDMS method for a couple of years now. They both crash from time to time, but only yesterday did I think of a handy shortcut. Not really rocket science, but you can create a 'desktop shortcut' by saving the dos input as a batch (.bat using Notepad) file on y...

Hi everyone. Been visiting this board ever since it went live - great job James - but not got round to posting. Until now. I'm Tongo, and I live in Yorkshire, England.
