There are three fundamental questions for anyone advocating Brexit:

1. What, precisely, are the significant and tangible benefits of leaving the EU?
2. What damage to the UK and its citizens is an acceptable price to pay for those benefits?
3. Which ruling of the ECJ is most persuasive of the need to leave its jurisdiction?

Dunno if it is "art" (any more than Warhol's Campbell's soup tins were!) but I am impressed.

Spent days trying to get a decent drawing of a drop of water hanging on a sheet of glass with "semi reflections" of the scene following a bet with a very good graphic technician friend. She gave me 7/10 in the end - and a hug! I guess this person has intrinsic skills and lots of practice.

I can remember buying my first pair of half meg memory cards - back when an 80MHz (I think) 386 with a meg of memory and a 120Mb hard drive was the bees knees!

Not exactly a computer and a bit earlier (1970s) - there is a Rockwell Model 10R 8-digit electronic calculator, in box with case and instructions, sitting on my desk. Needs a new battery connector, got that. A friend is looking to sell it but it did not shift on Ebay.

Weird, even though one's intellect knows, roughly, what is happening and why one's brain just does its own thing in terms of the interpretation of perception.

Gloucester depicted as a dragon in Eastgate St, on the edge of the "international quarter" of the city.
