I was in a vegan café last night, for a Burns Night jazz gig.
I am not a vegan but I'm of the school that says any grub is good as long as it's tasty.
The Scottish compére recited a vegan-ised version of Burns' Selkirk Grace.

I'm not absolutely certain, but I think I was at this concert.
I know I saw the Sun Ra Arkestra at The Union Chapel, a good few years back and it was amazing. I just don't know exactly when. Anyway.
Settle back. It's a long one.

Yet again updating Windows 11 to version 24h2 has rendered the mapped network drives that hold all my music and video files inaccessible. This has occurred on both of my PCs, from two different manufacturers. I've gone back to the previous 23h2 version on both, where drives are present and usable.

This year's GCHQ Christmas Challenge puzzle.
Have you tried it? How have you done?
I've solved the first five (the easy ones).
Can't figure out what the 6th is about, or even how to start, let alone how to solve it. Maybe I'm just a thicko.
Haven't got anywhere yet with number 7.
