As the title suggests, my blog has content from many sources. Being a professional nerd, there is a strong techy vibe here but my interests are varied and some will hopefully be of interest to the non-tech also.

Worcester Pubs
I'm a partial to a pint or two, but I won't tell you how many of these Worcester watering holes I am familiar with. Perhaps I'll see you in one some time soon.

Dambusting
Footage from on board the RAF Memorial Flight Lancaster as it flies over the Derwent Dam, Derbyshire to mark the 70th Anniversary of the famous WWII Dambusters raid.
To mark the 70th anniversary of the Dambusters air raid on 16-17 May 1943, a series of events is taking place around Britain, including a flypast by a Lancaster bomber of the RAF Battle of Britain Memorial Flight at Derwent Reservoir.
Derwent reservoir was one of the sites where pilots from 617 Squadron -- specially stood up to mount the raids -- practised low flying ahead of their daring mission to attack the Möhne, Eder and Sorpe dams, which produced hydroelectric power for the Ruhr and water for German industry.

As my Japanese is limited, I can't tell you much about the group of friends who make some lovely animated GIF's under the name RRRRRRRROLL.gif. So I'll let their work speak for itself. Click to enlarge.

Miyoko Shida Rigolo
A change of pace for this one. I hope you enjoy Miyoko Shida's spell-binding performance for the Spanish TV program "Tú Sí Que Vales" ("You Can Do It").
