Is Lemmy short for lemmings? Like those little guys that follow each other. The walkers, the diggers and the ones that stopped the others from plunging off the cliff.

One of my favourite games. I had it on Commodore 64 first I think. On tape.

Haha. That tape extension was expensive. We had some formula 1 game and cricket.

Also I remember skateboarding, PGA golf and the Summer Olympics. ☺
