Thanks chalkahlom, glad you enjoyed it. I didn't realise that Boots (a UK-based pharmacy chain) sold slide-rules, but I see references to them online.

Cheers Steve. I don't remember being taught how to use a slide-rule. Maybe we were and I wasn't listening! I did use it a moderate amount, but not for anything very sophisticated. Perhaps you could tell us about the more advanced features by way of an HPR show at some point. You could demonstrate your new Faber Castell :-)
