        I was having a conversation with someone the other day about lost websites, including this one. I only managed to track it down from a comment I made on a forum about a tonne of links I sent to a news site, which included a jokey aside about statue molesting. Blimey that was hard work. Now to find Fat Chicks in Party Hats and Portal of Evil…
