I discovered the other day in the Science Museum that The first 'Super computer' the CDC 6600 which could process one million calculations per second in 1968 was built in the shape of a cross, with rooms/equipment leading off from the middle bit which was called the cental processing unit or CPU. Not a lot of people know that. |

They've migrated to washing lines, yesterday took my pants off the line and saw one hanging off it so went to put it back on the line and it ran in my pants. I gave them a good shake out, couldn't see it so I assume it dropped out.(hopefully!) |

I heard that in the Lower Loft, It did make me smile. I always liked the one when an oppo with long hair came near Q/R block the chant of "where's your caravan, Where's your caravan" usually sprang up. Having long hair it made me laugh and many years ago one of the players it was directed at. [Post edited 12 Aug 8:24]

Just back, the goal was great but the rest pedestrian. We need to cross the ball earlier, a couple of times we waited and then that big 6 was just waiting to clear it. First game, a couple of wingers or one and Chair and things will get better. Smyth looked our only real threat with Anderson. |

I watched 'For those about to die' after an Italian girl recommended it to me on fb of all places. It starts off a bit meh but picks up and I found I enjoyed it; not as good as 'Rome' but I'll watch series 2 if they make one. |

I've just been reminded that a JD and Coke at Elysée Montmartre in 2010 at an Epica gig was 13 Euros!!! Luckily I was sozzled when I arrived. They had a fire and re-built it since then I wonder how much it is now. [Post edited 6 Aug 18:37]

Could we not have a brewing partner like Fullers, they supply the beer cheap at a profit, the club charges £5 a bottle of decent ale/lager and everyone is happy. |

That's an interesting fact about Bank station and the Hawksmoor church. |
