A catastrophic #flood event without warning in the Italian region of Marche on the night of September 15th washed a young family out of their home, being rescued from the rooftop at 2am. Any help would be greatly appreciated #help #alluvionemarche #aiuto https://t.co/YfBI2bjRDG

Took me a while to dig this post out @tcipress - hoping to apply the same technique on a very yellowish Tandy 2000 keyboard that just washed up through the space-time continuum

During Christmas I grabbed my childhood Commodore 64C from my parents basement with plans to restore it. Good progress made on the keyboard using 12% peroxide cream and a 36W black light.

@cerysmatthews Speaking of the @WedgewoodRooms .. I recall seeing you arrive late on stage there with Catatonia, straight from a TOTP recording, with the memorable summary, “It was shit!” (the show wasn't!)

It’s not every day you’re consulted for a series in IBM Systems Mag. Here, myself, Andrew Smithson @crshnburn and Tony Papageorgiou (@tony_papa42) engaged with Joseph Gulla on API Enablement on IBM Z #zOSConnect @IBM_CICS @IBMZ @IMS_DB_and_TM https://t.co/xsemuilT1i

Apart from being an enjoyable experience to be working again with @RichGx and @nigel_williams on the 4th edition, our Redpaper is always a handy reply to many questions arising on integration options for IBM Z! #zOSConnect @IBMZ @IBM_CICS @IMS_DB_and_TM @IBMcloud

[Richard Gamblin @RichGx]

What a lovely way to start the week... the draft ⁦@IBMRedbooks⁩ paper is now officially published!

The @IBMZ #Integration Guide for Hybrid #Cloud is here. Thanks to co-authors @nigel_williams & ⁦@UkRobJones⁩ for your inspired ideas https://t.co/uwrtqCPcTT
