I discovered that Ronnie Hazlehurst created the intro to "Are You Being Served?" in the way that he did to save cost, hence the tills and money sounds. Most surprisingly, this was before Pink Floyd did it at the start of "Money" - looks like the now passed composer was the cool one ! ;D

Xerox guys, all from Palo Alto, Zed IIRC

I remember using Macs for about 5 years then going to a Xerox demo of their latest "graphics type thingey"

it was years away from what was already being ported for the Apple Macintosh computers back in the day

there is no point in BBQing an Hot Peperami
Gruyere cheese does not melt on top of a beef burger, even if you close the lid and let it stand while the heat builds
