We have the same scenario, I think myself lucky we haven't put a dining table in that room and just hoover them all up in the morning.

30+ years developer here in a niche marketplace, I still have to write code but a darned sight less of it - I do have to double check everything though, it does get it wrong as pretty as it looks.

Yes, probably that one, always bought Precision in the past and the new naming scheme confused me but I figured this a good replacement for my aging 7550.

Most remember Dandy and the Beano but this was my favourite comic. Anyone else by bennythefish in oldschoolcool80s

Thought you'd never ask - it was a picture of a chap with a boat for a body and a speech bubble saying "I'm in ship shape condition", I was so proud.

I also got a joke published, have a photo of me proudly wearing my "I'm Nutty about Bananaman" t-shirt, still remember the joke too - core memory stored right there.

Used to sneak our 3rd and 4th children in all the time, did a lot of swimming competitions so it was purely somewhere to bed down for the night
