I am currently sneaking my way back to blighty to surprise the squeeze. I think I have got away with it so far but that first flight was 10 hours. 10 hours of Skype silence in a part of the day where that would be considered unusual – I wonder if she will put 2 & 2 together and get 4.
And that leads me nicely into a story I just read on the BBC. Not one for vague news & reporting inaccuracies I noticed this little paragraph in an article that was telling us about the death of a maths genius in the US. It struck me as a little odd. These guys are meant to be so clever but they didn’t know which number comes between 2 and 4.
Nicknamed the “Nobel Prize for Mathematics”, the Fields Medal is only awarded every four years to between two and four mathematicians under 40.
Dont believe me? Link to the article below. There is only one number between 2 and 4 as far as I am aware. OK smart arses, you can’t include fractions this time, the number refers to people so it really has to be a ‘whole’ number this time
So there – it appears I am smarter than the biggest maths genii in America. Mind you, America, I am not setting the bar too high am I ?
So, the start of a month off. What can I achieve this month? Hopefully the Samsung will get repaired quickly, I will be reporting on the customer service experience right here so please check back.
I am also going to see if I can visit Chernobyl, Cannock Chase and maybe even Scotland while I am off.
Oh yeah – Hot Tub Time Machine, Drive the Rangie and sell the Volvo
