Took the boy to see Gladiators being filmed earlier this year.
This was literally part of the entertainment while set changes happened.
Blokes being "dragged" out of the audience to have a go.

I've spent decades voting for those with a chance & I'm sympathetic to, but let me down (looking at you Nick Clegg & Keir Starmer), or voting for the least worst option with a chance.
Enough. Now I'm just going to vote for what I believe in.

I did a loft conversion in my house about 20 years ago and considered putting these in. But just assumed I'd die on them - or at the bottom of them.

Hate them

Now, admittedly, I'm not a naval ship expert, but this new barge shaped hull design seems flawed to me.

This place keeps sending me down #retrocomputing rabbit holes.
Earlier, I got thinking about the Toshiba Libretto from the v.late 90s. I knew someone who had one (work issued device). I thought it was sooo cool and wanted one sooo bad.
Still do.
