I recall Simon Goodwin and a certain Mr. Dilwyn Jones hacking away
contently one night in my bedroom in Wicklow a day or two after the first
Irish QL show several years ago. Simon was writing a program Dilwyn had
asked him to write, and Dilwyn was updating something for me on his (then)
shiny new 486 colour laptop running QPC1 which was just out at the time.
They were sitting back to back, Dil facing one wall and Simon the opposite
one. Dilwyn finished what he was doing, and needed to Save it. He looked
up, and in a clear raised loud voice said: "Simon, could you give me a
floppy dick please?"
I fell around in fits of laughter, and the look of embarrassment mixed with
fear on Simons face was a picture, he turned to face Dil slowly wondering
did he really mean it, and then Dil realised what he had actually said and
turned bright red, covering his face with his hands. Priceless.
I kept reminding Dil about that for about 6 months afterwards. I'm sure he
still hasn't forgotten it.
