The series never did make much use of Orac's ability to control any other computer that had Tariel cells. Could have solved most things so easily. There are numbers of times where Orac's various abilities could have been put to better use. Like the magic shrinking trick. Don't philosophise at me you electronic moron.

There are numbers of times where Orac's various abilities could have been put to better use. Like the magic shrinking trick. Could have made a comedy episode about the time that particular 'trick' malfunctined and they never knew what size it/he was going to be... "You're not sulking, I hope?"

And the siren is suddenly still. And that smile. And the gunshots ring out. What an ending. |

And that's it. The annoying jaunty music afterwards reminds us that all things are fleeting.

Well, thank you for your company. That has cheered me up a lot. Have a great Christmas, both of you, and see you in the new year. We start on January 6th, is that right? |

OK, I need to get cracking. Our family Christmas plans are now in complete chaos because the daughter who was hosting the family party rang yesterday to say she was full of a cold and perhaps w'd better not go there. Great. But amI downhearted? Nope. Somethig will turn up. And I still have most of the cooking to do...

Well, I suppose that's it for another year. It's gone too quickly and not always too well. Let's hope 2024 is a good one for everyone. Got to put my head to booking flights over there very soon in preparation for Steventon. Have a great Christmas everyone. When are we back Ms Virn? Don't philosophise at me you electronic moron.

As to when we resume... if we wait till January we'll be behind the Northern lot all year, but does that matter? Are we up for the 31st? Or will it be an Epiphany?
