BT tower

OK, had fun in the BT tower as usual - always an interesting view.

Afterwards - in to the nearest pub, and unsurprisingly many BT people there, and I had a few drinks with them for a while. Interesting talking to an atheist Sikh as well but that is another story.

Of course things did not start that well - Andy, a senior BT bod, goes to buy drinks and it's "sorry, we can't take cards, cash only - the card machine is not working because we're waiting for BT to fix the phone line". Ooops :-)
