Even more useless facts
I love the internet. If it didn’t exist I wouldn’t know what to do, I would probably have to invent a way of connecting disparate computer networks together. Anyway. Not satisfied with the tit-bits from Schotts? Take a look at Brewers. A particular favourite of mine is the list of Former Blue Peter presenters. By …
Holidays, clear up and clarification

Announcement
