There are those that claim gaming is a useless pastime with no redeeming qualities. I say nay!
Today I was stuck doing shopping in a very crowded Pick'nPay with the Mrs. I drove the trolley while she strove to set up Guinness record for highest stack of groceries. Was it not for the many hours of practise in Trackmania, things may have gotten very ugly indeed. I swerved, I dodged, I took gaps and I held my racing lines like a pro. I'm not too humble to say that I received more than a few appreciative (and jealous) glances from other male, trolley driving shoppers!
