Marina mirth and a mook


What are they smirking about as they pass Tattenhall Marina?


This was April this year. The marina was officially open, but it looked like there was plenty of work to do. I wonder how it looks now. Not long to find out.

Nothing to do with the above... but I found this snippet just now (while perusing the online Cheshire Chronicle):

And Finally... Self-confessed mook of the day: Sir Tim Berners-Lee

By James Shepherd on Oct 15, 09 08:26 AM in News

The man who invented the World Wide Web has admitted he got it wrong.

Sir Tim Berners-Lee told a US technology conference yesterday that the two slashes at the front of "www" on every web address are unnecessary.

And he said:"I could have designed it without them. A lot of paper, trees and human labour could have been saved if people hadn't had to type them."



Fair enough, but what's a mook?
