Sun Nov 07 11:47:35 2010 GMT: Danny Knows Best

As I mentioned earlier, you probably shouldn't pay too much attention to the plot in an opera. In an attempt to attract younger people to the opera, the Royal Opera House tried to put some of their current productions into a reality TV chat show format on Danny Knows Best. There Rigoletto becomes "I'm sleeping with my father's boss, behind his back". If you are bored, watch the clip and have a laugh, or head over to the ROH blog for some background information.

Sat Nov 06 19:05:55 2010 GMT: ACCU/Bletchley Autumn Lectures 2010

I have just been at the ACCU/Bletchley Autumn Lectures 2010. While the list of speakers looked very impressive - including Bruce Schneier and Whitfield Diffie - I have to say that I was a bit underwhelmed as I had hoped for a bit more technical details.

I was also a bit surprised that it had already started when I arrived at 9.25 (as my train was running late) in the morning as the information that had been emailed (earlier this week) mentioned a start time of 9.30 - apparently, this was moved forward to 9.15. Anyway, it was still a nice day, particularly as I had never been to Bletchley Park before - some pictures are available in my photo album.
