    [Technology] Happy birthday Internet, 50 years old today

    My mate tried to send a short message to the works mainframe thru an acoustic coupler via the pay phone in the Red Lion in Turners Hill. Inevitably it didn't work so he had to stop drinking and drive to work. I remember being very impressed with the technology even if it didn't work.

Most powerful scene - when a young John Mills (the boy next door) comes home from the navy to tell his neighbours (Robert...

    In related news; I found a foxes bed in my hedge that was made up of a pile of those big plastic bags that charities leave on the doorstep asking you to fill with donations. The cheeky fox had collected them all from our street and made a nice cozy bed in my hedge. I do try to encourage...

    [Humour] Poetic Put Downs

    Several years ago at The Dome Julian Clarey was being heckled, he simply said "you should keep practicing that, cos with a bit more practice you could be a wanker ". Years later my daughter used the same line (with my coaching) to embarrass and shut down a school playground bully.

    [Misc] Things you used to be able to do before "Health & Safety" took over

    My dads first "family car" was a pink Austin A40 van, so he went to the local breakers yard, purchased a single car seat and a 2-seater car bench seat.
