I'm absurdly pleased that someone has seen fit to build a very large astronomy lab at the bottom of a potash mine in Boulby, N Yorks.

Yes, yes, I know there are perfectly sound reasons - but it's a bunch of astronomers, headed by a Professor Spooner, working a long way underground in Yorkshire. I'm going to find it funny, damnit.

Well, it appeals to my sense of humour.

BTW, you did know, didn't you, that New College has what is euphamistacally known as the 'Rooner Spoon' within its bowels?

Surely the "Rooner Spoom"?

Always pronounced 'Spoon' in my hearing, but I concede the point ;)
