Rather strangely... When Mr C clicked on Amazon Prime viewing yesterday The Imitation Game was on the front page!!! It is now downloaded for us to watch at our leisure.

Did you see it too? Rather scary though! Reminded me of the horror film, Hellraiser. When I was there, I saw a statue of Turing made entirely from wire clothes hangers.

This week we visited the Cosford Cold War Museum with an young relative. Our young relative had not heard of the Cold War and how near the superpowers had got to mutual extinction. One of his school subjects was history... And for the record my history classes only taught me about the industrial evolution. I learned no wider history from my school years.
