   @bellinghman @gmh I do like the show (but that was a bit silly)

     @gmh I forget. But the plot involved the bus from Larkhall being diverted while still a fair way out, and I don't think there was anything under this bridge in the way of premises. Oh, and it apparently took 30 seconds to transit

     @bellinghman I’m curious as to which bridge now! - the alleyway under Pulteney Bridge that used to have the Tiergarten nightclub?

     We'll ignore the "it's a bit dark under that bridge" bit, that's addressed elsewhere on the web

     We quite enjoy watching McDonald & Dodds - an ITV crime series set in Bath with episodes designed for a two hour slot - but we did have an issue with the latest episode

     The barcode on a bottle of fizzy wine ain't going to tell you where and when it was bought. There is retail technology based on RFID that could do that, but your standard EAN-13 (a) doesn't have enough data content, and (b) can't be updated

     (I don't know of anywhere that actually uses the RFID tech for groceries, even now)
