Why did I not know of this sooner?

I was in Glasgow at the weekend and had a go on the C5 Simulator in the 
Riverside (nee Transport) Museum.

I scored 810 points :)

Hmm. Doesn't make up for the mess they've made of the rest of the
place. How are you supposed to look at cars when they're pinned to a
wall thirty feet above your head? Eh? EH?

Kelvingrove's the same. "Oh, isn't it lovely? The coffee shop is
wonderful.” Yeah, but where have all the *things* gone? The armour, the
swords, the crossbows and the giant bugs from the Amazon and all that
cool stuff. Disappeared. It's all big colourful Fisher-Price
"activities" and signs now. Oh, hundreds of signs. Bah.

And stop messin' with my bins. I remember when all this was just
fields. Etc.

The same ethos is busy at the moment ruining the codebreakers site in 
Bletchley as well. I suggested to one chap there that they were dumbing 
down. Not taken well, but then he was only about 25...

I live in Glasgow, and was not aware of this either. It must be new, as 
it wasn't there when we visited a while back!

I mentioned it to my good lady, and us and the kids are off there this 
weekend.

The following conversation really happened..

"Mum - what's Dad talking about?"
"It's just something geeky your Dad will like"
"Oh."


I get my geek on for free - it's the perfect match!

Toodle-pip!
