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.


Just found it. It appears that they closed that site and transferred
to another close by.
