Now we are a good 15 years in, I had this thought on the bus this morning. Will there become such a thing as vintage /antique websites? Will there be web archaeologists in years to come whose job is to retrieve quirky historical data reflective of its time?


Just coming across random early sites like this got me all nostalgic:


http://quantumplate.com/


(I have no idea what this business is or was, and it's reason for existence has become lost in cyberspace)

I quite like the simplicity of those sites compared with the all-action sites these days. It annoys me when I want to read a simple news story, for example, and have to negotiate the various pop-ups, videos, ads, etc that accompany the story.


Time to check out retirement home options I think.

Thats the Borg Fila Setanta 76 trackie top(in Kelly green) of websites. I like it.

    • 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
