Ha ha, sometimes it's comforting to be reassured what a complete nut job tarot is ;-)


All the Large Hadron Collider does is break things up and then look at the pieces afterwards. It doesn't open a gateway to another dimension, unleash primal evil, suck the brains from children or contact aliens.


It has less likelihood of causing an earthquake in Japan than tarot dropping a plate.

Hello hugh,

Is your farmers playing you up?

I make allowances for old grumps.

Some sort of prime evil slime that has been discorged by a volcanic upheaval,no gateways to another dimension.


How reasuring you didnt get through that way then.

You being an eminent scientist must know these things.

I can understand your anxiety tarot, but you don't need to be an eminent scientist to understand the LHC. It's the most basic form of physics: if you want to know what something is made of then break it up.


Science has brought much to humanity: agriculture, medicine, tools to build our houses and plough the fields. None of these we're created by people who knew exactly what they were doing.


Our future will not be secure in some rural idyll, singing in meadows and sharing superstition. We need to continue to develop technologies and knowledge that will feed, clothe, shelter and usefully engage humanity.


The LHC is a vital component of this progress.


Your resentment would be much more usefully directed at people who tell you lies and half-truths to keep you in a constant state of fear. They only want to control you.

I did ask,Hugh,and that was fascinating,you gave a good delivery of the science aspect, it was only ruined when you

peppered it throughout with sarcasm directed at me.

If there was a pupil in a class taught by someone like you,they would have learnt nothing,the reason being you was

to smug in making quick judgements on peoples mental health,in which you are not really qualified.

Once you insult someone you have lost their interest.

So work on your people skills.

    • Greg came out at last minute notice to address a leak at the flat. He stayed for 90 mins to try and fix it but turned out it was a communal pipe. He was quick to write a report so we could get Southwark onto it. Great plumber, would recommend highly. 
    • My daughter, a single parent, has been let down by her children's' father, who was supposed to have them for part of the school holidays, So we are helping out. Our grand daughter aged 11 is no problem, but 9year old is more difficult to please. Has an interest in computers and coding, does not like crowds (neurodiverse)  Is keen n how things work and enjoys taking things apart. He is already going to the transport museum and has been to the science museum  Husband and I have some mobility problems so nothing too strenuous. have done Horniman's a number of times.  Is there any local holiday schemes where we can enrol him in for 2/3 days. There seems to be a number relating to singing/dancing and drama but nothing science/maths based. He does not have an interest in sport at the moment. Grand children live in Sussex and will be attending Holiday Clubs for a couple of weeks  
    • When I had a dead fox in my garden the council told me to put it in my wheelie bin, the green one.  I warned the dust bin men when they came that it was in there.They said they get worse than foxes put it!  Dead bodies!?  In the heat it might be better to bag it up first. Pam
