@neil We tested the configuration of a Honeywell 200 modem console, by dialling out via Dublin, somewhere else now long forgotten and then back to our Burroughs TC500 in Bournemouth.
Seemed to work OK and we moved the TC500 to Dublin.

A friend, who collected pirated movies, once told me he had nearly a Terabyte of disc.
We al stepped back in amazement as at the time a 20 Gigabyte disc was enormous.

I'm the same with TV shows containing 'Celebrities'.
I've never heard of them and usually have to look them up to see why they are a 'Celebrity', but I'm often still no wiser.

"The singers all loathe the sight of one another, the chorus despises the singers,
they both hate the orchestra, and everyone fears the conductor;
the staff on one prompt side won't talk to the staff on the opposite prompt side,
the dancers are all crazed from hunger in any case..."
- Terry Pratchett, Maskerade

It's a simple choice; go to bed on 9mmol/L and BG alarm goes off 4 times overnight or go to bed on 5.6mmol/L and need to keep going to the loo all night 'cos BG is now 20mmol/L or higher.
I've been trying to manage it for 52 years and failing miserably.
