!Fake Pratt © 1996 Mark Randall
THis software may be freely distributed provided that
it is done so without charge (except for media & Post
& packaging and reasonable handling charge).

This is a small text only adventure in the style of
games available in the early 1980's. Careful
concentration and a few beers should allow you to
complete it in a few hours.
All characters depicted in the game are purely
fictional and any resemblance to persons living and
dead is pure coincidence.
The auther denies any responsibility for the break-up
of a certain popular all boy group which occured
shortly after the original draft of the game was
completed.
The faces of Fake Pratt's members have been smudged
to preserve their privacy. Mike Poem has been quoted
as saying " We may be a fictional group, but we would
like to be able to walk down the street without being
accosted by screaming teenage girls". This is, of
course, not true, they are waiting a reasonable time
before launching their debut single and stepping into
the gap that has now been created in the Boy band
market following the demise of whats-there-names.

Has your bank overcharged your interest? the chances
are that it has and if you have a large overdraft you
could have overpaid hundreds or even thousands of
pounds. How do you know? simple use Recalc! to
calculate the interest that you should have paid and
if you have been overcharged Recalc! will provide you
with the information that you need to challange your
bank and get a refund.
To use Recalc! you will need copies of your bank
statements, details of the agreed interest rates and
your paying in book(s). Using the information you key
in Recalc! will calculate the interest that you
should have paid and compare it to what you have been
charged, taking care of any compounding effects which
have occured if the mistake was made some time ago.
A single tasking version of Recalc! has been used by
a branch of a major UK bank to recalculate interest
when mistakes have been spotted and has resulted in
over £120,000 being refunded to customers.
Recalc! is programmed with all Base Rate changes since
1971 and all recent Bank Holiday dates, you can update
the software easily to keep up to date with any future
changes.
Recalc! will be available during quarter 1 1997 for
£27.99 inclusive. send a stamped SAE to the address
below for further details.
Recalculating your interest can take some time, even
with the help of Recalc! You need to enter the daily
balance of your account and details of credits paid
in. We also offer a full confidential recalculation
service for those who do not wish to undertake the
process themselves. This is charged at a rate of
£25.00 per accounting period (3 months). Write to the
address below for full details.
