Mr Babbage seems to have scheduled a lot of wargames lately, but he never seems to front up on the night. What's with this? Has anyone actually met Mr Babbage yet? I'm starting to think he's just a figment of the imagination. |

Then the mystery deepens, MajorB. Because if Mr Babbage is deceased, then who is it that's sending us runner boys with messages from his broken-down omnibus just outside Gamage's on Holborn? |

Mr Babbage should arrive at my abode sometime next week (encased in a set of TMWWBK). |
