Many of our CUK colleagues are well used to the 'And Below' group for their mental age.

Sure-fire sign is when there are age brackets - the sense of doom when having to select the next grouped ages

What happened to PL1?

I have just spent quite a while upgrading the little business website to mySQLi, plus eliminating various other deprecated warnings. Pissed me off. Why can't I just do the damn thing in Fortran IV with lots of GOTOs? It worked fine.

I remember taking the misses nephew and his girlfriend to Liverpool for a visit.

I jokingly pointed out a house and said that's where John Lennon used to live. They had no idea, not a freaking clue who he was.

Imagine...

I started on MVS, then VM, then VAX, then PCs. Nowadays it's all on the cloud, innit? It got smaller and smaller and finally disappeared.

Me too and still do (apart from the VAX). Currently working with this: https://www.theregister.co.uk/2017/0...mainframe_z14/
