On the theme of GPT, I can remember planning and making a visit to
their site in Coventry. The address was New Century Park. It
sounded impressive and high tech with a name like that. Until one got
there. What they had omitted to mention was *which* century.


GPT barely made it into the new century (renamed Marconi by
then), before going bust, so it wasn't a problem for long.

I suppose nowadays they have the three sausages on the roof.


I don't know what's happened to that site. It does look like
it's become Ericsson's now, and still called New Century Park.
