    Before pocket calculators there was the good old slide rule, magic bit of kit, also excellent for writing formulas etc on the back for your exams.

    My 41 year old son is off to Benidorm for 4 days, I’ve always spoken about my holiday there it was a club 18 / 30 (obviously withholding a lot details) and told him about a disco we went to, told him it was shaped like a flying saucer. Yesterday he looked it on the internet, unbelievable it’s still there and open so they are going to go and take photo’s. My holiday was there 55 years ago, I was a long haired 18 year old with flared trousers and platform shoes, now 73 😀

    Having knee done in 4 weeks, just had minor op on back . Moaning about the pain, my Grandson in all seriousness simply said to me "Grandad, do you think you would be better off dead?". Made everyone in the room cry with laughter.  Excuse the pun but he was deadly serious! Little shit.
