Given that the brothers involved were an Engineer and an Accountant, it seemed very apposite...

Can you recall, without looking, if IIa or IIb was the bean counter?

IIa counted beans: the prototype. IIb was the production model, which naturally worked much better!

We have a (temporary) solution; all but two of our radiators have been removed pending the completion of building work.

After my first year at Lancaster Uni I lived in a shared house in Morecambe for a while.
It had 7 bedrooms over 5 split level floors and two heaters, one in the living room and one in the entrance hall (which didn't work).
In the mornings afternoons you'd get up then scrape the ice off the inside of the window to see what the weather was like outside.

Same here, running the AirCon costs a bomb. It is perhaps somewhat preferable to the heating problem though as its alternative is nakedness

Isn't it funny that I have exactly the same conversations with Mrs Maxxx but about the air conditioning and keeping cool.
sitting there in long pants and a cardy with the air con on full!
When I suggest she starts removing clothing, she gives me a funny look, tuts and turns the aircon down a degree.
not sure what that's about

I need to get some ink cartridges for my printer. Would anyone here know of a reliable supplier for such items?

Electrons travel pretty damned fast, when uploading pages to a server.
If it takes a month to upload stuff through wires, just think how long it will take to deliver real stuff in the real world.
It'd be quicker to go to China, buy a pen, come back, and write it out by hand.
