- SPIROGRAPGH
- ~~~~~~~~~~~
-
-
- Here's a lovely little programme for anyone who's ever enjoyed the
- Spirograph pattern makers that lucky kids used to get at Xmas
-
- "You always used to lose the smallest wheels...", sez Liz who's a
- child at heart, "and then you'd be given another set, and you'd lose
- the smallest wheels from that, until you ended-up with four of
- everything, except for those tiny wheels... Great fun tho'!"
-
- Me? I had Meccano (Dad was a 'mechanic' in the real sense of the word
- - look it up!), and I remember building a battery-weighted pendulum
- that swung in two dimensions with a curved platter at the top that
- (with a pencil somehow held in place) produced ever-diminishing
- patterns. That's what comes of being, effectively, an only child...
-
- Anyway! It runs in either MED-RES or HIGH-RES and it's a good way to
- re-live yer childhood.
