This made me giggle
.
Logging on to check my mail, the Yahoo home page has the headline "Black hole machine on blink" followed by "The Large Hadron Collider, the machine designed to unlock the secrets of the universe, has been shut down after only a week". Apparently the shutdown is the result of an electrical fault.

The bit that made me giggle is the sub-heading "Find an electrician in your local area".

I now have a mental picture of the CERN scientists all standing around, watching a man in badly fitting jeans displaying his "cleavage" whilst rooting around in a tool box. He will no doubt do a bit of tooth sucking before declaring that, "It'll all have to be redone, guv'nor. Gonna cost you, to be honest. Take a bit of time, as well."

Ah, the fun you can have when you're easily amused ...

"Nah mate .........
Y'see, I'm part P certified. You'll need part LHC certification to do this."

We've had a number of transformers go in the past months.
