Remember the BBC Micro?

The BBC Micro turned 30 years old yesterday. It was a pionnering machine - not least because you use a descendent of it every single day - your mobile phone.

Blackburn owners Venkys hoped to use free R&B concerts to woo fans

"The Guardian has been shown emails revealing plans to stage a free concert at Ewood Park in which Blackburn wanted Akon, with over nine million albums sold worldwide, to be the headline act at a ground where the nearest thing to R&B is usually provided by the man with a drum in the Ronnie Clayton End." Madness.
