I've very pleased to say no queuing in the White Horse/Swan? on Richmond waterfront. Someone who arrived where I was after me did try angling in to nip in as the bloke in front got served and was about to vacate the bar so I gave them a polite look and they stopped and they waited as I took up the vacant space at the bar. Nice to see old pub manners still exist or it may have been my full colour Carcass "Descanting The Insalubrious" T-shirt that gave them pause. One of the barstaff coincidentally was a Carcass fan. We are legion.
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.
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!)
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.
