Old stuff I still know
Our Ginger Fuhrer says that he could still code up a simple game idea in Amstrad Basic, while I'm your man if you ever need to rebuild the suspension on an Austin Allegro (1750 Equipe version). This stuff doesn't leave your mind - tell us about obsolete talents you still have.

Or as I remember it
"3-root-2"
Since the square root of two has that "pairs of digits are increasing multiples of 7" thing going on*, it's a very easy one to remember and you then get root-27, root-50, root-98, root-200 and many, many more almost for free.
1.4
14
21
35
63 (OK, it's closer to 62; but good enough for most purposes and easy to remember)
