Today is the Pearl Anniversary of @cadcorp Map Manager 2.1
Bliss was it in that dawn to be alive, But to be young was very Heaven!
Built on 19th May 1995. And it still runs! And loads @OrdnanceSurvey LandLine direct from NTF!
Screenshots captured today, on Windows 11 24H2.
Hands up if you were at the @opengeospatial TC in Southampton in 1998, hosted by @OrdnanceSurvey, the last time there was a solar eclipse in the UK ✋. Keep your hand raised if you also experienced the water bombs thrown by the students from the roof opposite ✋.
Just found this extraordinary/insane 1963 Sunday Mirror article (referenced in David Kynaston's "A Northern Wind").
Apparently if you play golf or ski you're probably gay.
