My ISP, BE, has started providing land lines. So no longer will I need to pay BT line rental for my ADSL line. The line changed over to BE today without noticeable interruption of service, and we’ve kept the same number. Not that we use it much; other than receiving calls from some family members, we use our mobiles for all our telephoning. Oh, and being part of BE’s initial land-line trial, I’ve got half-price line rental for the first year.

Taking into account the state of modern television, this evening we’re watching black and white Avengers episodes from 1965.

Back in 1996, Rory Cellan-Jones did a report for Working Lunch about Grand Theft Auto, then in development at DMA in Dundee. The video is on the BBC web site; I am briefly visible in the background (to a highly trained eye) in the initial pan around the office.
